Document background
A GDPR Notice is a mandatory document required under Articles 13 and 14 of the General Data Protection Regulation for organizations processing personal data of EU residents, with specific provisions for compliance with Austrian law. This document must be provided to data subjects at the time their personal data is collected or within a reasonable period if collected indirectly. The notice ensures transparency about how an organization processes personal data, the legal bases for processing, data subject rights, and data protection measures. For Austrian operations, the notice must incorporate requirements from both the GDPR and the Austrian Data Protection Act (DSG), including specific provisions for employee data processing and electronic communications. The document should be written in clear, plain language and be easily accessible to all data subjects.
