Information on the purpose of processing and the retention period of personal data

One of the principles of the processing of personal data is the purpose limitation principle. Under this principle, personal data may only be collected for a specifically identified, explicitly stated and legitimate purpose and may not be further processed in a way that is incompatible with that purpose.

The processing of personal data should be closely linked to the purpose for which the personal data are processed, in particular as regards the list or scope of the personal data processed, which should be necessary for the processing of the personal data in question to achieve the purpose. It is not appropriate to artificially or additionally extend the list or scope of personal data in relation to the purpose. If the purpose and the list or scope of personal data is determined by law, it should be respected; if the controller determines the list or scope of the personal data to be processed, he should take care not to extend it unnecessarily beyond the purpose.

The Personal Data Protection Act provides for the obligation of the controller to provide the data subject with information on the purpose of the processing of personal data for which the personal data are intended, even if the personal data are not collected directly from the data subject. This information must be provided to the data subject at the latest at the time of obtaining his or her personal data, or in sufficient time, in a clear and comprehensible manner and in such a way that he or she can actually acquaint himself or herself with the information and understand it.

The period of retention of personal data shall be determined by the relevant law applicable to the document in question, in accordance with the retention period specified in the register record. If you are interested, please do not hesitate to contact us and we will inform you of the exact retention period relating to the specific document.
