Personal Data

Any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (‘data subject’); an identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person (art. 4 n. 1 GDPR). As a mere example, natural person could be associated to specific online informatic identifiers produced by devices, applications, tools and protocols used, as well as IP addresses, cookies, or identifiers of other nature, as well as rfid tags. Those identifiers could lead, when matched with other univocal identifiers or other data received on servers, to the construction of natural person profiles and even to the identification of a specific natural person (point 30 in the Preambles of the Regulation).
