Structure of the GDPR

The GDPR replaces Replaces Directive 95/46/EC and the UK Data Protection Act (1998), and has extensive laws that are delineated in 99 articles, 173 recitals - that give guidance on how to follow and interpret the articles - and the GDPR principles that simplify required compliance procedures.

GDPR Articles

The 99 articles are split into 11 distinguished chapters to enable Data Controllers, Processors, and Protection Officers to appreciate the GDPR laws that must be adhered to, including:

  • General Provisions
  • Principles
  • Rights of Data Subject
  • Controller & Processor
  • Transfers of personal data to third countries or international organisations
  • Independent Supervisory Authorities
  • Cooperation & consistency
  • Remedies, liability & penalties
  • Provisions relating to specific processing situations
  • Delegated acts and implementing acts
  • Final provisions
