Decisions on disclosing data that can be accessed using the VTJkysely interface and on the terms and conditions governing the use of the VTJkysely interface are made by the Digital and Population Data Services Agency. To start using the interface, the organisation must receive a data permit from the Digital and Population Data Services Agency, and acknowledge its commitment to the permit conditions.
The data permit specifies the products to which the permit holder may access, the purposes for which the data may be
used, and any other necessary conditions.
The application for the data permit must be submitted electronically, using the e-services of the Digital and Population Data Services Agency. Data from the Population Information System can only be disclosed if accessing the data is necessary and it is used for acceptable purposes. The type of data that can be disclosed is determined by the legislation and data protection regulations.
