Law 4624/2019, Greek GDPR Implementation Law (Nomos 4624/2019, N. 4624/2019)
Greece's private-sector regime is the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) plus Law 4624/2019 (Greek: Nomos 4624/2019), FEK A' 137/29-08-2019, in force from publication on 29 August 2019, which supplies domestic derogations and procedural rules, including an employment chapter narrowing consent as a lawful basis for employee data processing and separately regulating workplace video surveillance. The Hellenic Data Protection Authority (HDPA) is the supervisory authority.
The HDPA's own official English translation PDF could not be extracted through WebFetch this pass, so the employment chapter's exact article numbers and text are not independently confirmed and are described here only in general terms, per secondary legal commentary.
What it asks of an app
- Establish a General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) Article 6 lawful basis before processing personal data of a person in Greece, including data collected by crawling.
- Ground employee consent to data processing in Greece on more than the ordinary GDPR consent standard, since Law 4624/2019 narrows employee consent to exceptional cases given the dependence inherent in an employment relationship, per secondary commentary.
