Open Government Act
The Academy aims to make as much information as possible available through its own websites. Not all information can be made public, however, for example personal data about or originating from researchers or other employees, or information about third parties. When responding to a request for information under the WOO, the Academy gives it careful consideration, taking into account the relevant statutory framework and remaining within the statutory four-week deadline. The Academy will contact you if it is not possible to respond by that deadline. If an information request is refused, the Academy will explain why. If the request is granted, the Academy will share the requested information with you and will also make it publicly available to others.
