Adatlapvédelmi

Adatlapvédelmi refers to data protection or privacy in Hungarian. It encompasses the set of rules, principles, and practices designed to safeguard personal information. This includes how data is collected, processed, stored, and shared, with a strong emphasis on respecting individual privacy rights. The core idea is to ensure that individuals have control over their personal data and that it is handled responsibly and ethically.

In Hungary, adatlapvédelmi is primarily governed by legislation, most notably the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) of the European Union, which is directly applicable, and national laws that supplement its provisions. These regulations establish the rights of data subjects, such as the right to access, rectification, erasure, and restriction of processing of their personal data. They also outline the obligations of data controllers and processors, including requirements for consent, transparency, data security, and reporting data breaches.

The principles of adatlapvédelmi include legality, fairness, transparency, purpose limitation, data minimization, accuracy, storage limitation, integrity, and confidentiality. Organizations handling personal data must adhere to these principles to ensure compliance and build trust with individuals. Enforcement of these regulations is typically carried out by a national data protection authority, which can investigate complaints, impose sanctions, and issue guidance on data protection matters.
