Confidential data can be accessed from anywhere through a remote access system called Microdata Online Access (MONA). A written request for the information desired is sent to SCB. The application should contain a project description and a statement of ethical review board attached. If sensitive data must be handled in the research project, approval by an ethics board is required (§ 19 Data Protection Act). Statistics Sweden has one agreement for researchers at state universities and another agreement for researchers at private institutions. For remote access to data at servers of Statistics Sweden there is also an agreement concerning how to handle the PIN-code and password.
