National and international institutions
In order to duly discharge its functions, the Commission maintains numerous national and international contacts. Because automatic data processing operations have become borderless, the Commission is also represented in various national and international working groups. As a result, it is not only informed of new dangers very quickly, but there are also national and international agreements on the best ways to combat them.
Below you will find some useful links to web sites of organizations and institutions that are directly or indirectly in charge of protecting your personal data.
