| Abstract: | This article analyses the extent to which archival exemptions for historical, scientific and statistical research in privacy
legislation support preservation in selected European Union countries, and comparable aspects of Australian, American and
Canadian law within a legal, ethical and digital archival perspective. The authors recommend that the further processing of
personal data under data protection law be given a wider scope of interpretation for archival preservation purposes in both
the public and private sector, coupled with the use of researcher and archival codes in relation to access to personal data.
They also recommend early appraisal and integration of privacy with freedom of information and archival regimes.
