This means that you must provide a copy of your passport/personal ID and your press ID, a photo, and a letter from your editor confirming your employment/assignment to the ECB. The accreditation documents must be provided at least 10 working days prior to the event. They will then be reviewed and processed by the ECB.

This privacy statement explains how the ECB processes, stores, and manages personal data obtained in this context.
