Sažetak
The protection of personal data has been derived from the general right to privacy and it has been recognized in the European convention on Human Rights as one of the fundamental rights. The importance of this principle has been confirmed by adoption of Directive 95/46/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 24 October 1995 on the protection of individuals with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data which has established strict rules in order to ensure high standards of protection everywhere in the EU. Recently the established rules and practice have been challenged due to the evolution of the privacy issues caused by new technologies and the reform of the data protection rules has been recognized as the condition for the implementation of the Digital Single Market Strategy, major project of the EU that should enable free movement of goods and services in the digital environment. The result is adoption of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, and repealing Directive 95/46/EC (General Data Protection Regulation) and accompanying new directive. The major aim of the new rules is to strengthen citizen’s control over of their personal data, and to simplify the regulatory environment for business. The aim of this paper is to provide the insight into the new rules and to discuss the challenges of their implementation in the EU countries.
