InfluenzaNet is a system to monitor the activity of influenza-like-illness (ILI) with the aid of volunteers via the internet. It has been operational in The Netherlands and Belgium (since 2003), Portugal (since 2005) and Italy (since 2008), and the current objective is to implement InfluenzaNet in more European countries.
In contrast with the traditional system of sentinel networks of mainly primary care physicians coordinated by the European Influenza Surveillance Scheme (EISS), InfluenzaNet obtains its data directly from the population. This creates a fast and flexible monitoring system whose uniformity allows for direct comparison of ILI rates between countries.
Any resident of a country where InfluenzaNet is implemented can participate by completing an online application form, which contains various medical, geographic and behavioural questions. Participants are reminded weekly to report any symptoms they have experienced since their last visit. The incidence of ILI is determined on the basis of a uniform case definition.

Seguridad y confidencialidad de los datos
En GripeNet.es nos tomamos la seguridad de sus datos muy en serio. Algunos puntos esenciales que le conviene saber al respecto son:
1. Todos los cuestionarios son absolutamente anónimos. Para inscribirse, sólo es obligatorio una dirección de e-mail. No le pediremos que se identifique ni que nos dé dato alguno que pudiera identificarle como: domicilio, fecha completa de nacimiento, etc.
2. Los análisis posteriores se realizarán sobre un conjunto de datos de los cuales se elimina la información relativa al correo electrónico. La dirección de correo es requerida únicamente para gestionar su cuenta de usuario (envío o modificación de claves, envío del boletín semanal etc.) y a ella sólo tiene acceso el equipo encargado de la aplicación.
3. El resto de datos requeridos se utilizarán única y estrictamente con fines científicos. Estos se usarán para calcular los niveles de prevalencia y propagación de la gripe en España, elaborar modelos, identificar factores de riesgo, etc.
4. El protocolo de envío de datos del sitio es seguro; su conexión con nuestra web está protegida por un password.
5. En cualquier momento, usted tiene derecho a acceder y a modificar los datos personales que aporte y a decidir libremente cuándo abandonar el estudio.
