Data protection
[Da-ta pro-tec-tion] of; noun
Data protection refers to the protection of personal data from misuse and unauthorized access. It includes measures and regulations that ensure that personal information is treated confidentially, used only for its intended purpose and protected against unauthorized access, loss or alteration.
Data protection is regulated by various legal frameworks, such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in the European Union, which obliges companies to ensure the protection of personal data.
Legality
Personal data must be processed lawfully, fairly and in a manner that is comprehensible to the data subject. Transparency means that data subjects must be clearly informed about how their data is used.
Earmarking
Data may only be collected for specified, clear and legitimate purposes. The collection should be limited to the minimum necessary to fulfill the defined purpose. This reduces the risk of unnecessary data collection.
Rights of affected persons
Data subjects have the right of access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, objection and data portability. These rights strengthen the control of data subjects over their personal data and promote their protection.
