EU: European Data Protection Supervisor (EDPS): Data Protection Reform Strategy: EDPS sets out his vision for the new framework (Press release, pdf) and Opinion (pdf): "Peter Hustinx, EDPS, says: "In an information society where huge amounts of personal information are constantly being processed, citizens need and expect to stay in control of their personal data. If we want to strengthen citizens' rights over their personal data, we need to ensure that individuals remain in control and that data controllers pro-actively include data protection in their business processes. There is also a crucial need for a comprehensive framework that includes the area of police and justice."

Our work is only possible with your support.
