The Mondriaan Fund is the public fund for visual art and cultural heritage in the Netherlands and the Caribbean part of the Kingdom. It enables plans, projects and programmes of artists, exhibition makers and critics, museums and other art and heritage institutions, publishers and commissioners. All contributions reinforce the production or presentation of art and heritage from the Netherlands, both at home and abroad, where the market doesn’t do this (yet): precisely there, art and heritage prove themselves as valuable havens of the imagination. The fund stimulates the public connection and the development of these havens.
In order to fulfil this task, the Mondriaan Fund handles personal data. The persons involved can rest assured that these will be handled carefully.
The Mondriaan Fund works mostly digitally. This sets out requirements to the protection of data. The fund ensures that privacy is guaranteed by taking measures in the area of information security, data minimization, transparency and user control. In doing so, the fund complies with national and European privacy laws and regulations. In this privacy statement we indicate how we implement this.
Legal framework
The Mondriaan Fund is responsible for the execution and maintenance of the following legal frameworks:
- Personal Data Protection Act (in Dutch: Wet bescherming persoonsgegevens, WBP), replaced as from 25 May 2018 by the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). (In Dutch: Algemene verordening gegevensverwerking, AVG).
- GDPR Implementation Law.
Which are the basic principles?
The Mondriaan Fund handles personal information in a secure way and respects the privacy of those involved. It thereby adheres to the following principles:
- Personal data are processed in accordance with the law and in a proper and careful manner.
- Personal data are processed only if there is a justified basis for doing so.
- Only the personal data that are minimally necessary for the previously determined goal are processed.
- Personal data are not kept any longer than necessary. The storage of personal information may be necessary to be able to properly carry out the tasks of the fund, or to be able to comply with legal obligations.
- The Mondriaan Fund manages personal information carefully and confidentially. Personal data are processed only for the specific goal that they have been collected for. Furthermore, the fund takes care of the appropriate security of the personal information.
- In the case of cooperation with external parties involving data processing of personal information, the Mondriaan Fund makes arrangements about the conditions that the exchange of data must meet.
- In achieving the goal that the personal data are processed for, any invasion of privacy of those involved is limited as much as possible.
- The infringement upon the interests of the involved party may not be disproportionate in relation to the goal that is served by the processing of the data.
- The Fund guarantees the rights of those involved, such as the right of inspection and correction by means of procedures that are clear to the persons involved (procedures for right of correction, and right of inspection).
