Judgment

Full text

In the present case, it must be held, on the one hand, that information the declaration and placing online of which has been made compulsory relates to identified or identifiable natural persons and therefore falls within the concept of ‘personal data’ within the meaning of Article 4(1) of the GDPR. That information concerns persons identified by name and relates to their membership of associations, non-profit foundations and political parties and to the functions which those persons perform or have carried out there. The fact that that information forms part of the professional activity of declarants is not such as to deprive them of such a classification (judgment of 1 August 2022, Vyriausioji tarnybinės etikos komisija, C‑184/20, EU:C:2022:601, paragraph 65 and the case-law cited).
