Welcome to ERA – Academy of European Law

Year: 2025

Topic

The e-presentation compares Convention 108+, which is the modernised Council of Europe Convention for the Protection of Individuals with regard to the automatic processing of personal data, with the Law Enforcement Directive (LED). It details Convention 108 and highlights similarities with the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and LED, in particular principles and obligations, but also weaknesses like broad exceptions. It also examines issues around data subject rights, controller obligations and international data transfers, raising questions about the interplay between Convention 108+ and the LED.

Speaker

Juraj Sajfert, Legal and Policy Officer, Data Protection Unit, DG Justice and Consumers, European Commission, Brussels.
