[anti-abuse-wg] RIPE NCC Data Protection Report published

Dear colleagues,

To comply with Dutch data protection legislation regarding personal
data, the RIPE NCC has developed a legal framework that guarantees the
proper and lawful use of personal data. This framework has been
established in cooperation with the RIPE community through a task force
created for this purpose, the RIPE Data Protection Task Force (DPTF).

Recent discussion on this list has suggested that a clear overview of
the legal background to the framework and procedures proposed by the
DPTF may promote better community understanding of the RIPE Database
rules and the justification for them.

In the interests of transparency and understanding, the RIPE NCC has
produced a report that provides the legal background to the framework
and procedures relating to personal data in the RIPE Database and other
RIPE NCC services.

The RIPE NCC Data Protection Report is available at:

The RIPE NCC Data Protection Report was presented to the community at
RIPE 65 in October 2012. The presentation can be viewed at:

Kind regards,
