Az információs technológiák gyors fejlődésével egyre nagyobb szükség van a személyes adatok erőteljes védelmére, amely jogot az Európai Unió és az Európa Tanács jogi eszközei egyaránt biztosítják. A technológiai fejlesztések kiterjesztik például a felügyelet, a beszélgetések lehallgatása és az adatok tárolása határait, ami új és hatalmas kihívásokat állít e jog biztosítása elé. Ez a kézikönyv azon gyakorló jogászok számára készült, akiknek a jog e fejlődő területe nem a szakterülete.
Azzal, hogy a terrorizmus, a kibertámadások és a határokon átnyúló kifinomult bűnözői hálózatok egyre növekvő veszélyt jelentenek az EU-ban, a hírszerző szolgálatok munkája sürgetőbbé, összetettebbé és nemzetközibbé vált. Egy ilyen munka komolyan sértheti az alapvető jogokat, különösen a magánélethez és a személyes adatok védelméhez fűződő jogokat. Míg a folyamatos technológiai fejlődés súlyosbíthatja e jogsértések veszélyét, a hatékony felügyelet és jogorvoslat korlátozhatja a visszaélések lehetőségét.
This report is FRA’s second publication addressing a European Parliament request for in-depth research on the impact of surveillance on fundamental rights. It updates FRA’s 2015 legal analysis on the topic, and supplements that analysis with field-based insights gained from extensive interviews with diverse experts in intelligence and related fields, including its oversight.
In 2006 the EU issued its Data Retention Directive. According to the Directive, EU Member States had to store electronic telecommunications data for at least six months and at most 24 months for investigating, detecting and prosecuting serious crime. In 2016, with an EU legal framework on data retention still lacking, the CJEU further clarified what safeguards are required for data retention to be lawful.This paper looks at amendments to national data retention laws in 2016 after the Digital Rights Ireland judgment.
This report, drafted in response to the European Parliament’s call for thorough research on fundamental rights protection in the context of surveillance, maps and analyses the legal frameworks on surveillance in place in EU Member States.
FRA was requested by the European Commission (EC) in January 2014 to provide practical guidance on the processing of Passenger Name Record (PNR) data for law enforcement purposes, in light of efforts by Member States to establish national PNR systems. As a result, in informal consultation with EC services and the European Data Protection Supervisor (EDPS) and building on opinions FRA, the EDPS and the Article 29 Working Party on PNR, FRA presented twelve fundamental rights considerations to EU Member States experts at technical level.
Technological advances make it ever more important to safeguard the right to personal data, which is enshrined in the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union. Data protection violations arise principally from internet‑based activities, direct marketing and video surveillance, perpetrated by, for example, government bodies or financial and health institutions, research by the European Union Fundamental Rights Agency (FRA) shows.
Following a request by the European Parliament on 5 September 2012 for an analysis of the fundamental rights issues associated with the proposed EU data protection reform package, FRA issued its opinion on the draft legislation on 1 October 2012.
When a decision to stop an individual is motivated solely or mainly by virtue of a person's race, ethnicity or religion, this constitutes discriminatory ethnic profiling. Such practices can serve to alienate certain communities in the EU, and in turn can contribute to inefficient policing. The FRA guide aims to help the police address and avoid discriminatory ethnic profiling, and is designed to be used as a tool for more effective policing.
