European Data Protection Supervisor

The European Data Protection Supervisor (EDPS) is the European Union’s independent data protection authority. We monitor and ensure the protection of personal data and privacy when EU institutions and bodies process the personal information of individuals. We advise EU institutions and bodies on all matters relating to the processing of personal information. We are consulted by the EU legislator on proposals for legislation and new policy development. We also cooperate with national supervisory authorities and other supervisory bodies to improve consistency in protecting personal information. In our supervisory role, we monitor and ensure that the EU institutions comply with data protection rules. Disclaimer: The European Data Protection Supervisor (EDPS), together with the other European data protection authorities cooperating in the European Data Protection Board, is working to ensure that social networks respect the highest standards of data protection. The EDPS recommends users of social networks to be particularly careful about how they disclose their personal information and about how it may be used by third parties and the social networks themselves. The presence of the EDPS in LinkedIn does not mean that we endorse or in any way agree with the privacy policy or practices of this professional social network. More info: https://europa.eu/!HP66qc
