Publishing results from Kapseli

The data is processed within the Kapseli environment, and only the final analysis results are published. The permit holder produces the results in an anonymous format, and Findata ensures compliance with the Secondary Use Act by verifying the anonymity.

  • All results produced in Kapseli must be exported from the environment using the Portti output tool. 
  • Portti is intended solely for submitting anonymous results for verification. It must never be used to transfer personal data or any other non-anonymous information. 
  • Instructions for producing anonymous results can be found on Findata’s website: https://findata.fi/en/services-and-instructions/producing-anonymous-results/

Processing transfers and approving results 

  1. Schedule and communication 
    • Findata processes the results within five business days of submission. 
    • You can track the status of your transfers in the “My submissions” view in Portti. 
    • Findata sends messages from the address: portti@csc.fi. 
    • When you reply to the email, your message is automatically directed to data@findata.fi, where Findata staff will read it. 
  2. If anonymity needs to be reconsidered 
    • You will receive an email detailing the required changes. 
    • Make the corrections as instructed and submit a new transfer via Portti. 
  3. Approval of results 
    • Once the results are approved, they will be transferred to the submitter’s personal Tunneli (formerly Nextcloud). You will receive an automatic email notification. 
    • Results are automatically deleted from Tunneli 6 months after the transfer, so remember to save them to your own device in time. 
  4. If additional information on anonymity is needed 
    • Findata may request more information about the anonymity of the results before final approval. 
    • After the email exchange, you will receive an official notification of either approval or rejection of the results’ anonymity.

Please note that if your result files are very large, the verification process may exceed the usual 5-day time limit.
