At the opening of the event the President of the National Supervisory Authority, Mrs. Ancuta Opre, underlined the signification of this celebration within the context in which the Romanian Parliament ratified, through Law no. 290/09.12.2021, the Amending Protocol to Convention 108.

Also, the relevant aspects found within the controllers’ activity during 2021 were highlighted and it was recommended to them, specifically, to intensify the necessary internal organisational measures, including through the periodical training of the own employees, by reference to the specificities of the controller’s activity and their correlated tasks.

The first speech was given by Mr. Alexandru Rafila, the Minister of Health, that underlined the importance granted to the personal data protection, specifically in the pandemic context and the preoccupations of the ministry in identifying the appropriate solutions within this period.

Other distinguished guests that gave speeches were represented, at a high level, by the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Education, the Ombudsman and the General Inspectorate of the Romanian Police, emphasising specific aspects from the activity of these authorities.

Within the event, representatives of the university environment, of the public sector, but also of the private one have presented subjects that raised a particular interest in relation to the effective exercise of the right of access, the processing of the data at the level of websites and mobile applications, considerations on the private life in the digital era, international data transfers, as well as the new methods used for the damage of personal data.
