Our vision on privacy

Privacy is about the right of all citizens and employees to protection of their private lives. The collection and exchange of data is vital to the realisation of our social purposes. The protection of personal data and lawful data processing are an essential part of that data exchange. Because the protection of personal data is important and substantially contributes to the realisation of our social purposes, RIVM highly values privacy: we process personal data lawfully and in a transparent manner, in accordance with legislation and regulations.

RIVM uses data that persons share with us either directly or through professionals in the field; voluntarily, based on a legal obligation, or because - for example, by way of scientific research - it is in the interest of our national and sometimes international public health and our living environment.
