Processing of personal data An entity will be considered a data controller even if its activities are not intentionally directed at personal data as such, or it has incorrectly assessed that it does not process personal data. Moreover, it is not necessary for the administrator to have access to the data he administers. Example Company ABC wants to better understand consumers an. For this purpose, enters into an agreement with service Job Function Email List provider XYZ in order to obtain information of interest to it. Company ABC instructs XYZ on what information it is interested in and provides a list of questions to ask market research participants. ABC Company only receives statistical information from XYZ . identifying consumer trends in particular countries and does not have access to the personal data itself. Nevertheless, ABC Company decided on the processing and the purpose of processing and provided XYZ with detailed instructions on what information about consumers should be obtained. ABC should therefore continue to be considered as the controller of consumers personal data and XYZ as the processor. Joint administrators Pursuant to Art. GDPR, If at least two controllers jointly determine the purposes and means of processing, they are joint controllers. Not all processing operations involving several entities lead to joint controllership.
