Controller

It is very important to know who has been designated as "controller" under the Privacy Law, as this is the person who has to comply with nearly all the duties imposed by this Law. In case of problems, this person is responsible.

The controller is also the most important contact for you as a data subject, but also for the authorities that are to check him.

He also determines the purposes and the resources for the data processing. The controller can be a natural (physical) person or a legal person, an un-associated organization or a public authority.

If a law, decree or ordinance prescribes the purpose and the resources for a particular data processing operation, this law, decree or ordinance will also specifically designate a controller.
