Findata does not sell data. As the data permit authority, we grant fixed-term permits for the secondary use of social and health data only when the conditions set out in the Act on the Secondary Use of Health and Social Data are met.
Each permit is granted for a specific purpose, and it defines which individuals are allowed to process the pseudonymised dataset. Those who process the data must produce analysis results in anonymous form, so that no individual’s information or characteristics can be identified.
Findata is responsible for ensuring the anonymity of results, in accordance with the Secondary Use Act. This applies to all datasets covered by a permit.
When the permit expires, the permit holder’s access to the data is revoked and the dataset is destroyed.
