Thematic data protection week

Published: 10 October 2024

Between 18 and 22 November, SLU’s data protection function will be organising several activities to increase knowledge about and awareness of data protection and related issues.

19 november 8:30–9:00 Webinar on anonymisation and pseudonymisation

Do you consider the personal data within your research to be anonymised or pseudonymised? Anonymous data and pseudonymised data are often confused, which can have consequences for your research as well as for SLU. This webinar will explain the differences between anonymous data and pseudonymised data, common misunderstandings related to anonymisation and how all of this relates to you and your research. The webinar will be held in English and is intended for researchers at SLU.
