Personal data may be processed only for specified purposes, where this is necessary for the exercising of certain rights and fulfilment of obligations. The purpose of processing must be satisfied in all stages of data processing activities.

Transfer of personal data and connecting of various processing activities shall be subject to the consent of the data subject or a permission granted by an Act and only in the event that the requirements applicable to such processing are met for each and every personal data.
