Resolution (74) 29 on the protection of the privacy of individuals vis-à-vis electronic data banks in the public sector

(Adopted by the Committee of Ministers on 20 September 1974 at the 236th meeting of the Ministers' Deputies)
Pursuant to the resolution the term “personal information" means information relating to individuals and "electronic data bank" means any electronic data processing system, which is used to handle such information. The public should be kept regularly informed about the establishment, operation and development of electronic data banks in the public sector. The information stored should be accurate, kept up to date and appropriate and relevant to the purpose for which it has been stored. Every care should be taken to correct inaccurate information and to erase inappropriate, irrelevant or obsolete information. When electronic data banks process information relating to the intimate private life of individuals or when the processing of information might lead to unfair discrimination, their existence must have been provided for by law, or by special regulation. Rules should be laid down to specify the time limits beyond which certain categories of information may not be kept or used. Exceptions from this principle are acceptable if the use of the information for statistical, scientific or historical purposes requires its conservation for an indefinite duration. In that case, precautions should be taken to ensure that the privacy of the individuals concerned will not be prejudiced. Access to information that may not be freely communicated to the public should be confined to the persons whose functions entitle them to take cognisance of it in order to carry out their duties. When information is used for statistical purposes it should be released only in such a way that it is impossible to link information to a particular person.
