- Data should be accurate and kept up to date. Reasonable steps must be taken to ensure that inaccurate data is rectified or erased without delay.
- Data should be kept in a form that permits identification of data subjects for no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which the personal data is processed.
3. Lawful Basis for Processing:
- Personal data may be processed only with the consent of the data subject, unless processing is necessary for the performance of a contract, compliance with a legal obligation, protection of vital interests of the data subject, performance of a task carried out in the public interest, or for the purposes of legitimate interests pursued by the controller or a third party.

6. Security Measures:
- Controllers and processors are required to implement appropriate technical and organizational
measures to ensure the security and confidentiality of personal data.
7. Data Protection Officer (DPO):
- Controllers and processors may be required to appoint a Data Protection Officer to oversee
compliance with the law, particularly if they engage in large-scale processing of sensitive personal
data.
