Population Information System query’s responsible users

Each organisation has its own responsible users in the Population Information System query who are responsible for, for example, the user rights of the query’s users in their organisation. The organisation appoints the responsible users. You can become a responsible user of the Population Information System query in your organisation after you have applied for the responsible user’s right through the Digital and Population Data Services Agency’s e-service and once they have granted the right to you.

Responsible users have access to the management service of the Population Information System query, where they can add new users to their organisation and cancel unnecessary user rights.

 

The key tasks and responsibilities of responsible users:

  • you make user-specific applications for user rights
  • you forward usernames to the users when the Digital and Population Data Services Agency has approved the user rights
  • you instruct users on how to log in to the Population Information System query and how to use it
  • you make sure that the user information is up to date in the Population Information System query and that unnecessary user rights are cancelled without delay
  • you make sure that the user right applications are only for roles based on official or work duties and that the organisation’s users know that they are allowed to use the Population Information System’s data only for work
  • you ensure that your organisation regularly monitors the use of the Population Information System query with the help of user statistics, for example
  • you notify the Digital and Population Data Services Agency if there are changes in the organisation’s information (such as name or business ID) or if the purpose of use mentioned in the data permit changes.
