- Process a minor's personal data only in keeping with the representation rules the law sets for the exercise of the minor's own rights.NIST Privacy FrameworkCT.PO-P1
These lines are LexLint's reading of the law's text.
In the frameworks
- NIST Privacy Framework
- CT.PO-P1Policies, processes, and procedures for authorizing data processing (e.g., organizational decisions, individual consent), revoking authorizations, and maintaining authorizations are established and in place.
- CT.DP-P1Data are processed to limit observability and linkability (e.g., data actions take place on local devices, privacy-preserving cryptography).

Our reading of where this law's duties sit in each framework, and in the NIST Privacy Framework, line by line beside each duty above. It never says that running a control meets the law. How we read a framework against the law
What it makes you log
Logging duty
Articles 16 to 25 forbid processing biometric, genetic, health, sexual-life and other special-category data, and data on offences and litigation, except on listed grounds, chiefly the data subject's explicit written consent on paper or in electronic form. The written form is a condition of lawful processing, and no clause makes the controller keep, show or produce a record of that consent. Articles 17 and 23 bind health professionals and persons authorized under article 21 to professional secrecy, article 20 requires a unique patient identifier, and article 24 sets representation rules for minors. None of these articles requires a log or a record, and none names a territorial hook, so the hook is empty.

What this law does
Article 16 prohibits processing biometric data and personal data revealing racial or ethnic origin, filiation, political opinion, religious or philosophical belief, trade-union membership, sex, health, or sexual life, unless the data subject gives explicit written consent (withdrawable at any time, at no cost), or the processing falls within a listed exception: a labour-law obligation, protecting the data subject's or another's vital interest, a human-rights association's activity authorized by ANSICE, a social-security purpose, establishing or defending a legal claim, data the data subject has manifestly made public, historical, statistical, or scientific research on conditions ANSICE sets, public-statistics law, preventive medicine or health-service administration under a health professional's supervision, or another important public-interest ground a law permits.
Article 17 confines the processing it covers to cases of the data subject's written consent or of necessity for preventing a concrete danger or repressing a specific criminal offence, and then only under a health professional's responsibility, binding that professional and their staff to professional secrecy.
Article 18 separately prohibits processing genetic data and personal data revealing health-related secrets, subject to a similarly structured list of exceptions, and article 20 requires that any such processing use a unique patient identifier distinct from other identification numbers, interconnectable with another identifying number only with ANSICE's express authorization.
Article 24 confines processing a minor's personal data to the representation rules the law sets for the exercise of a minor's own rights.
