Registration Dutch Privacy Awards 2025 open!

Dutch Privacy Awards

Every year, Privacy First organises in conjunction with ECP | Platform for the Information Society during the National Privacy Conference the presentation of the Dutch Privacy Awards. A professional expert jury considers privacy-aware solutions and initiatives by companies, governments and other organisations that have privacy and information protection high on their agenda.

The 2024 winners were Jet-Stream, Privacy Simulation, Public Transport Groningen Drenthe and Oasys Now. At the Privacy Awards website you will find an overview of all nominees and winners since 2018. Each of them are building blocks for a privacy-friendly society.

Jury

The Privacy Awards jury consists of independent privacy experts: Jaap van der Wel (jury chairman), Mabel de Vries, Magdalena Magala, Rion Rijker, Sanne van de Velde, Koen Versmissen and Walter van Wijk. More information on the jury members and the jury rules can be found at the website Of the Privacy Awards.

Registration

The jury nominates entries in the following categories:

• Technology
  Technology that repels rather than facilitates prying eyes.
• Application
  Smart, thoughtful solutions for maintaining privacy when using personal data.
• Raising awareness
  An outstanding understanding of the importance of privacy protection among decision-makers, designers and implementers.

There is also the possibility of a Incentive Award.

Submissions will be assessed against the following criteria, among others:
- social impact
- innovative capacity
- self-reliance.
