to ensure that personal information will be protected and
handled consistently with relevant law and other fair use
principles.

Protection 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;

authority report should include infringements and the
activities that the authority conducted under their Article
58(2) powers. The EDPB report should include guidelines,
Annual Reports 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.

protected by the GDPR.
Anti-discrimination Laws 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.
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

transfers to bodies not bound by the binding corporate
rules. This may also refer to the use of encryption or
pseudonymization, standard data protection clauses
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

Organizational Measures 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 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

into effect.

subject is exercising certain rights, such as the rights to
Authentication 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.
