Abstract

REBELO, Maria Paulo. The challenges of RGPD in face of blockchain technology. Rev. Bioética y Derecho [online]. 2019, n.46, pp.117-131.  Epub Oct 01, 2019. ISSN 1886-5887.

The creation and emergence of new software based on blockchain technology challenge the recent GDPR to new questions, as it is severely criticized for bearing in mind only virtual realities based on centralized data control. Despite both RGDP and blockchain share common interests in increasing transparency and confidence in online data exchange, the truth is that in several ways misunderstandings between the two are real: certain notions, such as data controller or processor, hardly adequate; certain rights, such as right to be forgotten or the right to data portability risk losing their enforcement; or even certain principles, such as data minimization, are hardly compatible with this new technology.

Keywords : blockchain; personal data; DLT; GDPR; technology.
