What this law does

Drafted with AI from the cited sources under the direction of UnGovr staff. UnGovr holds editorial responsibility for this page.

Greece's private-sector regime is the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) plus Law 4624/2019 (Greek: Nomos 4624/2019), FEK A' 137/29-08-2019, in force from publication on 29 August 2019, which supplies domestic derogations and procedural rules, including an employment chapter narrowing consent as a lawful basis for employee data processing and separately regulating workplace video surveillance. The Hellenic Data Protection Authority (HDPA) is the supervisory authority.

The HDPA's own official English translation PDF does not yield extractable text, so the employment chapter's exact article numbers and text are not independently confirmed and are described here only in general terms, per secondary legal commentary.
