To facilitate genetic research, the collection, integration and exploitation of data are a prerequisite. Genetic data, however, providing information not only about the person him/herself, but also about her/his family, parentage and ultimately ethnic descent, is considered to be the most valuable, and yet most vulnerable data which needs to be protected at all costs. On the other hand, clinical research makes it necessary to disclose and exchange genetic data.
