After the passage and entry into force of the European Parliament’s AI act, there are still questions on how it will interact with the GDPR.
The European Court of Justice (ECJ) issued a ruling explaining the standards of “meaningful information about the logic involved” under GDPR Art. 15 as well as what should be done if the logic involved necessarily involves trade secrets or 3rd party data protected by the GDPR. Under this ruling, “meaningful information about the logic involved” entails, by means of relevant information and in a concise, transparent, intelligible and easily accessible form, the procedure and principles actually applied in order to use, by automated means, the personal data concerning that person with a view to obtaining a specific result, such as a credit profile. When the company claims that the information to be provided contains trade secrets or 3rd party data, the “controller is required to provide the allegedly protected information to the competent supervisory authority or court, which must balance the rights and interests at issue with a view to determining the extent of the data subject’s right of access provided for in Article 15 of that regulation.”
