Fairness in EU Data Protection Law

Clifford, D 2021, ‘Fairness in EU Data Protection Law’, Oxford Encyclopaedia of EU Law (Forthcoming).

This entry is an analysis of the fairness principle as provided for in Article 5(1)(a) of the General Data Protection Regulation. The analysis tracks this principle's uncertain contours and also points to its constitutional foundations with reference to Article 8 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union.
