Protecting users’ personal data and unlocking data driven innovation: Maintain the GDPR by adopting a more consistent and risk-based interpretation

In today’s digital landscape, safeguarding user personal data and fostering innovation are paramount. While the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is often presented as the EU’s golden rule, its interpretation is, at times, too rigid, departing from the intention and the spirit of the law. Europe needs robust data protection that coexists with a strong innovation landscape. To achieve this, we believe it is important to allow a risk-based interpretation of the GDPR, applied consistently across Europe. The GDPR is still fit for purpose – it is rather the interpretation of the text and provisions that needs to be reconsidered in enforcement. By doing so, we can protect users’ privacy rights while encouraging the development of cutting-edge solutions.
