Data collection that is required by law enforcement is exempted from GDPR regulations.
- corty 6y agoNo. All regulations apply except for the right to (premature) deletion and the necessity of (another) reason for the data collection. Very much a situation of one regulation putting you in the crosshair of another one.
- CryptoPunk 6y agoThe Wikipedia page for GDPR says data collection for the following purposes is exempted from the regulations: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Data_Protection_Regulation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Data_Protection_Regula... >>Lawful interception, national security, military, police, justice
- corty 6y agoThe article is between imprecise to wrong. A box above the respective paragraph says so. Article 2 contains said exceptions, but limits them to "member states" and "competent authorities. https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX:02016R0679-20160504 https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX:02... So only a government office would be exempt in those matters, not a private organisation, except when seen as performing a government function. That is somewhat up to interpretation, so maybe, maybe not.
