Personal data is any information that relates to an identified or identifiable living individual. Different pieces of information, which collected can lead to the identification of a person, also constitute personal data.

Personal data that has been de-identified, encrypted, or pseudonymized but can be used to re-identify a person remains personal data and falls within the scope of the GDPR. Pseudonymization means that an individual can still be identified through indirect or additional information. ... Anonymization means that you cannot restore the original information, and such data is out of the scope of the GDPR.

Examples of personal data:

  1. a name and surname.

  2. a home address.

  3. an email address such as name.surname@company.com.

  4. an identification card number.

  5. location data (for example the location data function on a mobile phone).

  6. an Internet Protocol (IP) address.

  7. a cookie ID.

  8. phone number.

  9. data held by a hospital or doctor, which could be a symbol that uniquely identifies a person.
