Law on Personal Data Protection, special categories of personal data and minorssince 4 lines

Law on Personal Data Protection, arts. 16-19 (special categories of personal data and minors), Official Gazette RS No. 87/2018 · Read the law's page

  • Do not process data revealing racial or ethnic origin, political opinion, religious or philosophical belief, or trade union membership, or process genetic data, biometric data for unique identification, health data, or data about a person's sex life or sexual orientation, unless a listed exception applies, such as the person's explicit consent for one or more specified purposes.
  • Where a minor is 15 years old or older, their own consent is enough to process personal data for an information-society service; below that age, get consent from the parent exercising parental responsibility or another legal representative, and take reasonable steps to verify it.
  • Process data about a person's criminal convictions, offences, or related security measures only under the control of, or as specifically permitted by law for, a competent authority, and keep any unified register of criminal convictions solely under that authority's control.
  • Where a competent authority processes special categories of personal data for law-enforcement or national-security purposes, apply Article 18's narrower list of exceptions instead of Article 17's, and only where necessary and accompanied by appropriate safeguards.

  • Applies to media service providers generally (Article 64) and, specifically, to video-sharing platform providers established in Serbia (Article 115).
  • As a media service provider, take all measures necessary so that your program content does not harm the physical, mental or moral development of minors, and act in a minor's best interest when timing or otherwise publishing content that could cause that harm (Article 64).
  • As a video-sharing platform provider, take appropriate measures to protect minors from program content, user-generated video content or audiovisual commercial communications that could harm that development (Article 115).
  • Check whether the Regulatory Authority for Electronic Media has specified the platform measures further, as Article 116 lets it do, having regard to the nature and potential harm of the content and the categories of persons to protect.
