The TrustTheVote Project supports EU privacy standards

To prepare for the new General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR) for EU countries, the TrustTheVote Project web support team and OSET Institute Legal reviewed all of our data privacy and security policies to ensure that we meet (or exceed) the standards set by the GDPR. Data privacy and security is one of the foundational values of the TrustTheVote Project, and we want to be sure that we’re consistently applying best practices and principles.

We also believe it’s important to support and promote international norms for digital privacy. Although the OSET Institute is headquartered in California, our mission is global in nature, because verifiable, accurate, secure and transparent election technology is a mandate for all democracies, worldwide. Trust in elections depends on digital privacy and security. That’s why we support the principles of the GDPR, both all of our web properties, and in the software we build for safe and secure elections, ElectOS.

You can read our new Privacy Policy to see how GDPR compliance applies to this website. Please contact us if you have any questions about digital privacy, security, or how it applies to election technology.
