• Technological data protection should be taken into account already at the planning stage.
• Privacy by design should be technological neutral.
• From the creation of standards and the design of architecture to their implementation by the data controller.
• The European Digital Agenda endorses the principles of privacy by design to ensure citizens and trust in ICT and for online services.
• Privacy and Trust goes hand in hand and Privacy by Design should be guiding principle for the development of new trustworthy ICT.
