Journée de la protection des données

Elle marque l'anniversaire de la convention du Conseil de l'Europe sur la protection des données, connue sous le nom de "Convention 108". Il s'agissait de la première loi internationale contraignante concernant les droits des individus à la protection de leurs données personnelles.
