Office for Personal Data Protection Enforcement and GDPR Article 82
Urad na ochranu osobnych udajov Slovenskej republiky (Office for Personal Data Protection of the Slovak Republic) is the supervisory authority, confirmed by both commentary sources; fine amounts and detailed procedure were not independently checked beyond the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) baseline.
GDPR Article 82 arms an individual with a direct private right of action; DLA Piper states Slovak private rights of action derive from Article 82 without further elaboration, and no Slovak transposition of the EU Representative Actions Directive was found or ruled out in this pass.
What it asks of an app
- Expect the Office for Personal Data Protection to have General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) Article 83 fining power over your processing of personal data of a person in Slovakia.
- Expect any person in Slovakia who suffered material or non-material damage from an infringement to have a direct GDPR Article 82 right to compensation from you as controller or processor.
