Adatigénylésekre

Adatigénylésekre is a Hungarian term that translates to "data requests" or "information requests." It refers to the process of formally asking for access to or information held by a public institution or private entity. This concept is closely related to the right to information, a fundamental principle that allows individuals and organizations to access data that is not classified or subject to privacy restrictions.

In Hungary, the legal framework governing adatigénylésekre is primarily established by Act CXII of 2011 on the right to informational self-determination and freedom of information. This act outlines the procedures for submitting requests, the types of information that can be requested, and the timeframes within which authorities must respond. Public bodies are generally obligated to provide access to public data, unless specific exceptions apply, such as national security concerns or personal data protection.

Adatigénylésekre can be submitted for a variety of reasons, including journalistic investigations, academic research, or simply for citizens to understand the actions and decisions of public administration. The process typically involves submitting a written request, specifying the information sought. The responding entity then has a legal obligation to process the request and provide the data, or explain the reasons for refusal. There are also provisions for appealing decisions if a request is denied. The principle behind adatigénylésekre is to foster transparency and accountability within institutions.
