Charity Foundation BeOpen (hereinafter referred to as BeOpen) hereby notifies that it performs processing of personal data in accordance with the GDPR and other personal data protection laws and regulations of the Republic of Latvia and the European Union.

What is GDPR?

GDPR or General Data Protection Regulation is the name of the Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council 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).

The aim of the GDPR is to protect privacy of individuals in the European Union and to harmonise the national legislation of the European countries.

As of 25 May 2018, the GDPR is directly applicable and fully binding for data processing and protection throughout the European Union and in Latvia, thus replacing the Personal Data Protection Law in effect until now.

GDPR was developed with the aim to harmonise the differences in requirements to the processing of personal data between Member States, allowing EU citizens to have better control of their own personal data, including easier access, awareness in case of identity theft, establishment of clearer rights to erasure of personal data (the “right to be forgotten”), the right to object etc.
