Report on the inspection carried out by the EDPS on the websites of major EU institutions

La solicitud fue rechazada por Supervisor Europeo de Protección de Datos.

Dear European Data Protection Supervisor,

Under the right of access to documents in the EU treaties, as developed in Regulation 1049/2001, I am making a request for information.

An inspection carried out by the European Data Protection Supervisor (EDPS) on the websites of major EU institutions and bodies revealed data protection and data security issues in seven out of the ten websites inspected. Each of the institutions concerned has received recommendations from the EDPS on how to ensure their websites are fully compliant with data protection rules and the relevant institutions have reacted swiftly to start rectifying the problems identified. Your press release on this matter can be found here:

https://edps.europa.eu/press-publication...

I would like the finished report in which the findings of the remote investigation were produced. I believe this will serve as an excellent benchmark or template to DPOs looking to, likewise, undertake such investigations and produce reports to their respective Controllers.

Yours faithfully,

Calum Liddle
