Eindhoven open data principles

Eindhoven open data principlesa. Data in the public space (hereinafter: “data”) belongs to everyone. This data is public good. Data that is collected, generated or measured (for example by sensors placed in public space) must be made available so that everyone can use it for commercial and non-commercial purposes. In doing so, a privacy and security consideration must be made.b. Data may contain personal data. This data can therefore affect people's lives. The rules of the Personal Data Protection Act apply to this. This data must only be made available after this data has been processed (for example anonymised or aggregated) in such a way that there are no longer any privacy risks.c. Data that does entail privacy or security risks may only be processed within the framework of privacy legislation. Storage and processing of data must be carried out in accordance with existing legislation.d. Data that does not (any longer) contain personal data must be placed in such a way that everyone has equal access to that data (for example via an Open Data portal). We call this opening up data. No technical or legal barriers are raised that prevent, restrict or discriminate access to data.e. Data is always made available free of charge, without unnecessary processing (where possible in the raw form) and according to functional and technical requirements to be determined.f. A distinction is made with personal data (such as an e-mail address or payment details) which are collected with the conscious knowledge and after explicit consent of individuals. Use of this data is determined by an agreement between the parties involved within the framework of privacy legislation (such as a user agreement).g. The municipality always has insight into which data is collected in the public space, regardless of whether or not the data can be made public.h. The municipality remains in dialogue with the parties that contribute to the data infrastructure in the city and strives to create earning opportunities and a fertile economic climate.
