In particular, the organisation is specialised in the “Privacy-by-Design” approach to new security technologies. STELAR was founded as a spin-off of an integrated project funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Science within its Framework Programme Research for Civil Security.
STELAR has extensive expertise in legislation, GDPR, data protection, privacy and fundamental rights management in European innovation projects and research projects on ICT and digital transformation as well as the experience of its main researcher with the European consumer organisation for technical standardisation (ANEC) and the European Standardization Organizations CEN, CENELEC and ETSI and the International Standardization Organization ISO concerning security, data protection, privacy and eHealth standardisation.
Therefore STELAR will provide its expertise to the analysis of legal and regulatory issues for the CLARIFY ecosystem and monitor compliance with ethics and privacy requirements throughout the project´s lifetime.
