48It is apparent, in particular, from recital 10 of the GDPR that the objectives of the GDPR are, inter alia, to ensure a consistent and high level of protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data within the European Union and, to that end, to ensure consistent and homogeneous application of the rules for the protection of the fundamental rights and freedoms of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data throughout the European Union (see, to that effect, judgments of 16 July 2020, Facebook Ireland and Schrems, C‑311/18, EU:C:2020:559, paragraph 101, and of 12 January 2023, Österreichische Post (Information relating to the recipients of personal data), C‑154/21, EU:C:2023:3, paragraph 44 and the case-law cited).
