Responsible use

Goal and impact

Waadhoeke municipality wants to be transparent to its residents and entrepreneurs while complying with the General Data Protection Regulation (AVG). The deployment of anonymisation software helps employees anonymise documents.

Considerations

The use of anonymisation software speeds up and simplifies the process for active and passive disclosure. Its use reduces the risk of a data breach and helps protect the personal data of all data subjects.

Human intervention

The software makes a proposal, a staff member decides to adopt it and corrects if required.

Risk management

The risks are minimal, as a staff member is always still assessing the result.

Miscellaneous personal data

Technical design

The algorithm recognises as much privacy-sensitive data as possible in a document and makes a proposal to anonymise it. An employee evaluates this proposal and manually corrects where necessary, then approves the modification. The document is then ready for publication.
