Normally, ECP and Privacy First organise this conference annually for a relatively select audience from our networks and supporters (maximum 200 people in Nieuwspoort, The Hague). Due to coronagraphs, we have decided to organise the event this time largely online and thus for a wider audience.
The Dutch Privacy Awards are supported by Democracy & Media Foundation and The Privacy Factory.
