Cabinet proposes to re-retention requirements – NU.nl

But this time, if a prosecutor wants to see this information in connection with criminal investigations, the magistrate is there to give you permission for that.

The government has to Friday decided after a proposal by Minister Ard van der Steur of Security and Justice. The proposal must still be approved by parliament.



Keeping Requirements

The retention obligation existed but this spring had a stripe down by a judge there. He found that the privacy of people was violated seriously.

Van der Steur had said that he wanted to continue the data retention. The retention period is six months for internet data to twelve months for telephone data.

Companies retain this information already, but shorter and only to send accounts to their customers.
