  The aim of the paper is to present some of the general principles of data protection law that can be applied to automated decision-making built on blockchain-based data processing in order to comply with the provision of the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The analysis focuses on the applicability of the ‘data protection by design’ principle during the development of such systems. My hypothesis is that because blockchain-based networks are built on distributed data processing operations, therefore data controlling or processing of participating nodes should comply with some abstract data protection patterns predetermined and collectively built-in during the system’s development phase. For the sake of better understanding, I presented the human mind and its ‘uploading’ with conscious and unconscious content as an analogy to blockchain-based AI systems. My goal is to highlight that the fusion of blockchain and machine learning-based AI can be a suitable technology to develop serious automated decision-making systems (so-called ‘distributed AI’). The compliance of these distributed AI systems with data protection law principles is a key issue regarding the very serious risks posed by them.

  Technological innovations affect many sectors of the economy, including the insurance business. Among these innovations, IoT-based (Internet of Things) solutions can be highlighted, the main feature of which is that real-time and continuous data collection is performed using the Internet, thus optimizing the risk management of the insurer. Given that a significant part of the data thus collected constitutes personal data, so the rules of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) should apply. The data protection examination of the technologies affecting the insurance institution raises several issues which, in my view, significantly impede the application of these technological achievements. The study aims to explore these problems and make an attempt to make proposals to solve them.

  In temporary agency work the relationship between the temporary work agency and the user-undertaking is often not adequately or correctly understood in the context of the processing of personal data. This leads to a deterioration of protection of personal data as well as labour market rights and obligations. The purpose of this study is to explore when we can speak about a controller- processor, a joint controller or a controller- controller relationship, which will clarify who has to implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure and to be able to demonstrate that the processing is performed in accordance with the Regulation.

  EU cookie laws have been in place since 2011, but before the entry into force of the GDPR, the conditions for consent were interpreted differently across Europe. Since the GDPR came into effect, there has been a great deal of interest in how it applies to cookies and similar technologies. The GDPR updated the EU’s longstanding digital privacy framework, with key additions including tightening the rules around consent as a legal basis for processing personal data. The purpose of this study is to clarify for data controllers the rules they need to pay attention to, in order to ensure that the use of cookies on its websites is strictly in accordance with applicable laws
