Manual On Good Administration Principles

“Justice is the bond of men in states, and the
administration of justice, which is the determination
of what is just, is the principle of order in political
society.”

Aristotle (B.C. 384-322, Greek Philospher)

he principle of protection of personal data regulates the purposes for and
Tmeans through which the acts of acquiring, retaining, processing and storing
all kinds information that identifies a person directly or indirectly can be carried
out, and the available remedies in cases where illegal situations arise during the
conduct of such acts.

The protection of personal data is recognised as a separate fundamental right
and freedom in the Constitution, and it has a vital importance considering the
fact that it is directly associated with the protection of private life and the right
to privacy, which is another fundamental right and freedom.
The principle of protection of personal data stipulates the following:

Collecting and processing personal data in accordance with the
principles and procedures established by legal arrangements,
Ensuring that the personal data are kept and processed by the
authorised persons and taking measures to preclude non-authorised
third parties from accessing to such data,
Ensuring that the individuals can learn the parties who collect and
process their personal data, the type of data being processed, and the
purpose of the collecting and processing such data.
