⩥ Accuracy. Answer: Organizations must take every *reasonable* step
to ensure the data processed is this and, where *necessary*, kept up to
date. Reasonable measures should be understood as implementing
processes to prevent inaccuracies during the data collection process as
well as during the ongoing data processing in relation to the specific use
for which the data is processed. The organization must consider the type
of data and the specific purposes to maintain the accuracy of personal
data in relation to the purpose. Also embodies the responsibility to
respond to data subject requests to correct records that contain
incomplete information or misinformation.
⩥ Adequate Level of Protection. Answer: A transfer of personal data
from the European Union to a third country or an international
organisation may take place where the European Commission has
decided that the third country, a territory or one or more specified sectors
within that third country, or the international organisation in question,
ensures this by taking into account the *following elements*: *(a)* the
rule of law, respect for *human rights* and fundamental freedoms, both
*general and sectoral legislation*, data protection rules, professional
rules and security measures, effective and *enforceable data subject
rights* and *effective administrative and judicial redress* for the data
subjects whose personal data is being transferred; *(b)* the existence
and *effective* functioning of independent *supervisory authorities*
,with responsibility for ensuring and enforcing compliance with the data
protection rules; (c) the *international commitments* the third country
or international organisation concerned has entered into in relation *to
the protection of personal data*.
⩥ Annual Reports. Answer: The requirement under the GDPR that the
European Data Protection Board and each supervisory authority
*periodically report on their activities*. The supervisory authority report
should include infringements and the activities that the authority
conducted under their Article 58(2) powers. The EDPB report should
include *guidelines, recommendations, best practices and binding
decisions*. Additionally, the report should include the protection of
natural persons with regard to processing in the EU and, where relevant,
in third countries and international organisations. Shall be *made public
and be transmitted to the European Parliament, to the Council and to the
Commission*.
⩥ Anonymous Information. Answer: In contrast to personal data, this is
not related to an identified or an identifiable natural person and *cannot
be combined with other information to re-identify individuals*. It has
been rendered unidentifiable and, as such, is not protected by the GDPR.
⩥ Anti-discrimination Laws. Answer: *indications of special classes* of
personal *data*. If there exists law protecting against discrimination
based on a class or status, it is likely personal information relating to that
class or status is *subject to more stringent* data protection regulation,
under the GDPR or otherwise.
,⩥ Appropriate Safeguards. Answer: The GDPR refers to these in a
number of contexts, *including* the *transfer* of personal data *to third
countries* outside the European Union, the processing of *special
categories* of data, *and* the processing of personal data in a *law
enforcement* context. This generally refers to the application of the
general data protection principles, in particular purpose limitation, data
minimisation, limited storage periods, data quality, data protection by
design and by default, legal basis for processing, processing of special
categories of personal data, measures to ensure data security, and the
requirements in respect of onward transfers to bodies not bound by the
binding corporate rules. This *may* also *refer to* the use of
*encryption or pseudonymization*, *standard* data protection *clause*s
adopted by the Commission, contractual clauses authorized by a
supervisory authority, or *certification schemes* or *codes of conduct*
authorized by the Commission or a supervisory authority. Should ensure
compliance with data protection requirements and the rights of the data
subjects appropriate to processing within the European Union.
⩥ Appropriate Technical and Organizational Measures. Answer: The
GDPR requires a *risk-based approach* to data protection, whereby
organizations *take into account* the *nature*, *scope*, *context and
purposes* of processing, as well as the risks of varying *likelihood* and
*severity to* the *rights and freedoms* of natural persons, and institute
policies, controls and certain technologies to mitigate those risks. These
might help meet the obligation to keep personal data secure, including
technical safeguards against accidents and negligence or deliberate and
malevolent actions, or involve the implementation of data protection
, policies. These measures should be demonstrable on demand to data
protection authorities and reviewed regularly.
⩥ Article 29 Working Party. Answer: Was a European Union
organization that functioned as an *independent advisory body* on data
protection and privacy and consisted of the collected data protection
authorities of the member states. It was *replaced by* the similarly
constituted European Data Protection Board (*EDPB*) on May 25,
2018, *when* the *GDPR went into effect*.
⩥ Authentication. Answer: The process by which an entity (such as a
person or computer system) determines whether another entity is who it
claims to be. *is required* by the GDPR *when* the data subject is
*exercising certain rights*, such as the rights to *deletion or
rectification*, and might include supplying log-in details or biometric
information. However, the data controller should not be obliged to
acquire additional information in order to identify the data subject for
the sole purpose of complying with any provision of the Regulation.
⩥ Automated Processing. Answer: A processing operation that is
performed without any human intervention. "Profiling" is defined in the
GDPR, for example, as the automated processing of personal data to
evaluate certain personal aspects relating to a natural person, in
particular to *analyse or predict aspects concerning that natural person's
performance at work, economic situation, health, personal preferences,
interests, reliability, behaviour, location or movements*. Data subjects,
under the GDPR, have a *right to object* to such processing.
