As Ekin, we are aware of our obligations as the enabler of safe city technologies under the GDPR- General Data Protection Regulation which came into effect on May 25th, 2018 in European Union and remain committed to helping to support our clients all around the world for GDPR compliance.

What is GDPR?

GDPR lays down rules relating to the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and rules relating to the free movement of personal data. GDPR is planned to make natural persons and their rights be centralized.

What is personal data?

Personal data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. Here is a list of personal data types

  • Biographical information or current living situation, including dates of birth, Social Security numbers, phone numbers and email addresses
  • Looks, appearance and behavior, including eye color, weight and character traits
  • Workplace data and information about education, including salary, tax information and student numbers
  • Private and subjective data, including religion, political opinions and geo-tracking data
  • Health, sickness and genetics, including medical history, genetic data and information about sick leave

Pseudonymization & Anonymization

“Anonymization” of data means processing it with the aim of irreversibly preventing the identification of the individual to whom it relates.

“Pseudonymization” of data means replacing any identifying characteristics of data with a pseudonym, or, in other words, a value which does not allow the data subject to be directly identified.

The legal distinction between anonymized and pseudonymized data is its categorization as personal data. Pseudonymous data still allows for some form of re-identification, while anonymous data cannot be re-identified. Both pseudonymization and anonymization are encouraged in the GDPR and enable its constraints to be met.
