Künstliche Intelligenz

Künstliche Intelligenz

Künstliche Intelligenz ist Realität und ist mit Navigationssystemen, Spamfiltern, Wettervorhersagen – um nur einige Beispiele zu nennen – bereits in unser alltägliches Leben vorgedrungen.

Auf dem Gebiet des maschinellen Lernens, einem Teilbereich der künstlichen Intelligenz, sind erhebliche Fortschritte zu verzeichnen. Die Maschinen lernen mithilfe komplexer Algorithmen, die es ihnen ermöglichen, riesige Datensätze zu analysieren und auf Grundlage dieser Daten Prognosen zu treffen. Parallel zur fortlaufenden Verbesserung der Fähigkeiten dieser Maschinen werden immer größere Datenmengen gesammelt und Informationen über menschliches Verhalten ausgewertet – all das stellt Herausforderungen für den Schutz der Privatsphäre und personenbezogener Daten dar.

Global Privacy Assembly Closed Session 2020 - At your desk

The newly renamed Global Privacy Assembly (formerly known as International Conference of Data Protection and Privacy Commissioners - ICDPPC) took place this year 2020 during the period from October the 13th to October the 15th. This year's event wasn't immune to the COVID-19 pandemic currently occurring. Consequently the place of the event, which initially was planned to be held in Mexico City, had to be changed to a virtual setting, making it the first time that such an occasion was organized online.

Annual Reports

2019 Annual Report - a year of transition

2019 could be described as a year of transition, across Europe and the world.  With new legislation on data protection in the EU now in place, the greatest challenge moving into 2020 and beyond is to ensure that this legislation produces the promised results. Awareness of the issues surrounding data protection and privacy, and the importance of protecting these fundamental rights, is at an all-time high and this momentum cannot be allowed to decline.

This Annual Report provides an insight into all EDPS activities in 2019, which was the last year of a five-year EDPS mandate. EDPS activities therefore focused on consolidating the achievements of previous years, assessing the progress made and starting to define priorities for the future.

Use of office telephones - European Central Bank

Opinion of 13 February 2007 on a notification for prior checking on Investigation procedures regarding the use of office telephones (Case 2004-271)

The rules of the ECB as concerns the use of the telephone and fax equipment are provided for in an administrative circular. Members of staff are entitled to make personal calls but these must be declared for billing according to a system of call charging facility by introducing a PIN code. The circular establishes a procedure for investigation procedures on the use of office phones (Call Charging Facility Investigation Procedures) which can be triggered either when there is a disagreement with the content of itemised private call listing or disagreement with content of business calls statistics.If, having assessed the situation, there are grounds to suspect misconduct on the part of a member(s) of staff, further disciplinary measures can be taken, but these were not the object of the present prior check.
 

The EDPS has issued an opinion on this procedure which concludes that on a general basis the procedure complies with the principles established in the data protection regulation. However the EDPS did make some recommendations mainly as concerns the conservation periods for storing the data and information on the processing of personal data to be included in the administrative circular. The circular is currently in the process of modification and will reflect these recommendations accordingly.
