What this law does

Drafted with AI from the cited sources under the direction of UnGovr staff. UnGovr holds editorial responsibility for this page.

Article 76 requires any person who controls personal data by virtue of their work in electronic transactions to give the data subject, before processing, a special notification identifying who is responsible for the processing and the nature, purpose, methods, and locations of the processing.

Article 77 requires the authentication service provider to let the person whose data was collected access and update it, including all personal data sites related to them, through appropriate technological means. Article 79 bars sending electronic documents to a person who has explicitly refused them, bars processing personal data against the data subject's explicit refusal, and bars processing that causes harm to, or infringes the rights or freedoms of, the person the data was collected from.

Article 79 also bars using personal data for a purpose other than the one agreed to without the data subject's consent, echoing article 73's purpose limitation from the data subject's own side.
