You have the right to object to the processing of your personal data for secondary use, such as research. Once you submit an objection request to Findata, we will no longer disclose your data for secondary use to permit holders.

An objection request submitted to Findata:

  • is valid indefinitely
  • does not remove data that has already been disclosed from existing datasets
  • can be submitted via Findata’s e-service (asiointi.findata.fi), by post, or in person at THL

An objection submitted to Findata does not prevent other data controllers from disclosing your data for secondary use. Therefore, objections must be submitted separately to each data controller.

See Findata’s instructions: How to exercise your rights
