The EDPB launches a public consultation on its draft guidelines on the concepts of controller and processor
EDPB has published new draft guidelines on the concepts of controller and processor which aim at replacing the previous opinion from the Article 29 Working Party (WP169).
This document thus intends to clarify the definition of the concepts of controller, joint controller, processor, third party and recipient of data, by illustrating them with concrete examples within different sectors. It also aims at specifying the obligations that are attached to these qualifications.
Following the public consultation and after analyzing the contributions received, the final version of the guidelines will be adopted by the EDPB.
