ORCID has updated its Privacy Policy to make it simpler and easier to navigate. The core principles of data protection remain unchanged. The main goal of this update is to make the privacy policy easier to understand and improve the clarity of the information provided. The new policy offers a clearer explanation of how ORCID handles users’ personal data worldwide, with an increased focus on transparency.
While the basic procedures for processing personal data remain the same, ORCID has restructured the information to make it more accessible. The update also includes details on data processing outside of the ORCID registry, such as membership management or support requests. ORCID continues to uphold a high standard of data protection for all users, regardless of their location.
