Two-day International Conference “The EU General Data Protection Regulation”, held on April 17-18, in Belgrade, organised by the Commissioner for Information of Public Importance and Personal Data Protection with the support of The Royal Norwegian Embassy in Belgrade.
The Conference was opened by the Commissioner for Information of Public Importance and Personal Data Protection, Rodoljub Šabić, who said that the General Regulation represents a long-awaited response to an ever-increasing privacy interference trend. This document raises the standard of personal data protection that Serbia is trying to achieve.
At the conference, it was stated that The General Data Protection Regulation – GDPR, which enters into application in the EU Member States on the 25th of May, provides, above all, an individual greater control over the data that is being processed about an individual.
