Cross-regulatory interplay
The application of the GDPR alongside other legal frameworks creates a multi-layered compliance landscape where various texts may apply concurrently and provisions overlap, requiring a holistic approach.
Through its guidance and engagement work, the EDPB promotes the centrality of the right to data protection in the overall regulatory architecture and contributes to a consistent and predictable application of different regulatory frameworks.
