The CNIL control charter

November 13, 2020

In August 2020, the Commission Nationale de l’Informatique et des Libertés (CNIL) published its charter of controls, in order to take stock of its control powers and ensure that they are properly carried out.

In order to ensure that the processing of personal data complies with the French Data Protection Act and, since May 25, 2018, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the CNIL has various means of controlling data controllers.

The types and causes of CNIL controls, a reminder of the principles of a CNIL control and the companies that may be subject to this control are detailed in the full article, accessible, in French, at the following address: https://www.dcavocat.com/la-charte-des-contrôles-de-la-cnil.
