The Flash Eurobarometer is an European cross-national survey research programme on attitudes, values and beliefs of european citizens. The survey has been conducted since 1987 but unlike Standard Eurobarometer is limited in respect of sample used and provides information on special topics when required by the European Commission.

 

The arguments of Flash Eurobarometer 225 are as follows:

  • General feelings and concerns about data privacy;
  • Trust placed in different types of organisations that held personal data
  • Awareness of data protection rights and of the national protection authorities;
  • Perceived security of data transmission over the Internet and the usage of tools that improved the data security;
  • Attitudes on the restriction of data protection rights in the light of international terrorism.

Data are available for free (registration required). After logging in, please click on the green button download_arrow in the box at the right.
