Personal data: Data collected by private detectives relating to persons acting as estate agents concern identified or identifiable natural persons, and therefore constitute personal data. (¶ 26)
¶26 excerpt
At the outset, it must be stated that data such as those which, according to the referring court, are collected by the private detectives in the main proceedings relate to persons acting as estate agents and concern identified or identifiable natural persons. They are therefore personal data within the meaning of Article 2(a) of Directive 95/46. Their collection, storage and transmission by a regulated body such as IPI or by the private detectives acting for it therefore represent the ‘processing of personal data’ within the meaning of Article 2(b) of Directive 95/46 (see Case C-524/06 Huber [2008] ECR I-9705, paragraph 43).
