How is & how should #EUDataP of #journalism #media develop under #GDPR? Here are some thoughts based on a talk I gave to @sciencespo and @HECParisLaw late last year. slideshare.net/DavidErdos1/gd…
(1) State law remains highly divergent but the great majority recognise that qualified DP requirements and partial DPA supervision should apply to journalism.
(2) This law, the GDPR itself and the EU Charter all point to a continued, albeit sensitive role, for DPAs here. But these agencies have many other demands and remain highly resource constrained.
(3) A co-regulation synergy between self- and statutory regulation is the best approach for elucidating the necessary detailed balanced standards and for monitoring these.
(4) DPAs should adopt a strategic stance, showing greater deference to self-regulatory bodies which take data protection standards and balancing seriously.
(5) The GDPR's codes of conduct and monitoring provisions (arts. 40-41) can provide a useful guide and the @EU_EDPB can play a useful facilitative role.
