Privacy and GDPR in the Personal Injury Fraud Register Tilburg

The personal injury fraud register in Tilburg balances fraud prevention with privacy rights under the GDPR, particularly relevant for local traffic accidents and employment claims in the region. Personal data such as name, BSN and claim details from Tilburg cases are processed on the basis of 'legitimate interest' (Article 6 GDPR). Insurers in Tilburg must conduct a DPIA for high-risk processing, taking into account the busy N261 and industrial zones. Data subjects have the right to information (Articles 13-14), access (Article 15), rectification (Article 16) and erasure (Article 17). The CFEL remains the controller and publishes a privacy statement, accessible via Tilburg insurance offices. Data sharing with police or FIOD requires a necessity test, as in recent fraud cases around the Tilburg District Court. Complaints go to the Dutch Data Protection Authority (DPA), which can impose fines up to 20 million euros. Case law, inspired by CBF Amsterdam and local rulings from the Zeeland-West-Brabant District Court in Tilburg, requires minimal data and strict retention periods. Automatic inclusion is prohibited; a 'reasonable suspicion' is essential, for example in suspicious claims after Tilburg carnival accidents. Victims can claim damages for data breaches via the sub-district court in Tilburg. The NVV has a code of conduct for compliant use, with Tilburg adaptations for regional industry associations. Experts warn against over-retention in local registers, which is disproportionate. Transparency on algorithms for fraud scoring is mandatory under the emerging Algorithm Transparency Act. (218 words)
