Description
In December 2015, the European Parliament and Council reached agreement on data protection reform [DPREFORM]. This will require legal and federation consultation and analysis of eduGAIN’s policies focused on attribute release (Code of Conduct, EU and international variants, Research and Scholarship Entity Categories, recommendations on User consent), in particular focusing on service implications for eduGAIN members.
