Abstract

The entry into force 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, commonly referred to as the General Data Protection Regulation will lead to significant changes in the domestic commercial environment. The present study aims to analyse the main problems that Romanian companies will face. In this respect, a section is dedicated to the theoretical and practical aspects of the new regime of consent, which, under the rule of the Regulation, can no longer be tacit. Similarly, attention is paid to problems concerning the obligation to appoint a Data Protection Officer. This obligation implies significant changes in the companies’ internal affairs. The final part of the article is dedicated to the systematization of a generally applicable compliance rules, to aid Romanian in their feat of insuring proper respect for Personal Data. The main purpose of the present study is to create a proper practical plan to facilitate the fulfilment, by Romanian businesses, under the Regulation.
