When Does Data Stop Being Personal Data?
Few questions in data protection law carry as much practical weight as this one: when does data stop being personal data? The answer determines whether the GDPR applies at all and with it, whether individuals hold rights of access; whether data can be shared with third parties or transferred outside the EU without GDPR safeguards; and what is permissible in AI development. In short, the boundary between personal data and non-personal data is the watershed of data protection law.
