Data Privacy Survey

About

In the second quarter of 2022, Utrecht University (UU) Research Data Management Support (RDM Support) sent out a survey among all scientific personnel at Utrecht University, and organised one-on-one meetings with a selection of them. The aim of these efforts was to investigate 1) How UU researchers currently deal with personal data in their research, 2) What challenges they run into when handling personal data in research, and 3) How support at UU can improve their services concerning personal data in research.

The survey and one-on-one meetings were part of the Data Privacy Project, an RDM Support project to improve information, tools and services surrounding personal data in research.

Instead, we created fake data files, which can be used to reproduce the Results report.

The two reports written about the survey are the following:
