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.

By doing so, we can protect users’ privacy rights while encouraging the development of cutting-edge solutions.
