QuestionQ85

European Data Protection Law and Regulation

Where two controllers act as joint controllers under Article 26 of the GDPR, which of the following may those controllers not validly determine?

  • A The definition of a central contact point for data subjects.
  • B The rules regarding the exercising of data subjects' rights.
  • C The rules to provide information to data subjects in Articles 13 and 14.
  • D The non-disclosure of the essence of their arrangement to data subjects.
Explanation

Joint controllers may designate a contact point and transparently allocate responsibilities for data-subject rights and for providing the information required by Articles 13 and 14. However, Article 26(2) requires that the essence of their arrangement be made available to data subjects; an agreement to withhold it is invalid.
