DIGITAL RIGHTS IRELAND COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE

Digital Rights Ireland (DRI) is a small, focused non-profit organisation dedicated to defending civil, human and legal rights in the digital age. Through strategic litigation, public campaigning and legislative education, DRI challenges unlawful mass surveillance, data-retention schemes and infringements on digital privacy across Ireland and the wider European Union.

The group's core specialisations include protecting the right to data security, digital privacy and data access, as well as confronting state-led monitoring and unlawful access to personal communications. Landmark court cases led by DRI have set precedents for privacy and data-protection law, and the organisation continues to bring forward high-impact legal actions, such as the recent €550,000 fine over illegal biometric data collection for Public Services Cards.

With no permanent staff or office, every contribution goes directly to DRI's work-mounting legal challenges, informing policymakers and rallying the public on critical digital-rights issues. Subscribers can receive timely campaign alerts to stay informed about the evolving landscape of digital freedom in Ireland.
