WHAT ARE PERSONAL DATA?

Personal data are any information, which refers to an identified or identifiable natural person. The different information that, together, can lead to the identification of a certain person is also personal data. Personal data that has been anonymized, encrypted or pseudonymized but can be used to identify a person remains personal data and is covered by the GDPR.

It also doesn’t matter how data is stored – in an ICT system, by video surveillance or on paper; In all these cases, the personal data are subject to the protection requirements formulated in the GDPR.
