What do information obligations mean?<\/strong><\/p>\n When processing personal data, data subjects have the right to be informed as early as possible. Corresponding information obligations can be found in Art. 13, 14 GDPR and this ultimately also follows from the principle of transparency (Art. 5 para. 1 lit. A) GDPR). The information listed in Art. 13, 14 GDPR must be provided in a precise, transparent, comprehensible and easily accessible form in clear and simple language (Art. 12 para. 1 GDPR). This obligation applies to data controllers both offline and online, i.e. data protection declarations must be regularly placed on websites, blogs and social media profiles. This is a purely declaratory obligation, i.e. the data subjects do not have to confirm that they are aware of it or its content. Responsible bodies must only be able to prove that they provide the mandatory information.<\/p>\n Information obligations play an important role in day-to-day business, for example when it comes to the protection and legally compliant processing of personal data.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" When processing personal data, data subjects have the right to be informed as early as possible.
