Data Protection Day 2026: Reset of Refine? - Closing Remarks
Closing Remarks by Thomas Zerdick, EDPS Acting Secretary-General, delivered on the occasion of Data Protection Day 2026, Brussels, Belgium
Nach vielen Jahren intensiver politischer Debatten zum Thema Datenschutz in der Europäischen Union wird die Datenschutz-Grundverordnung (DSGVO) im Mai 2018 endlich EU-weit gültiges Recht. Sie soll den Eckpfeiler des Datenschutzes in Europa bilden. Die Datenschutz-Grundverordnung enthält unmittelbar geltende Vorschriften zu den Rechten der betroffenen Personen, den Pflichten derjenigen Organisationen, die die Verarbeitung personenbezogener Daten fordern, und derjenigen, die die Verarbeitung durchführen (Verantwortliche und Auftragsverarbeiter), zu internationalen Datenübermittlungen und den Befugnissen der Aufsichtsbehörden.
