Judgment_paragraph 80 · JH v Policejní prezidium (C-57/23)

80In that regard, while Directive 2016/680 does not define the concept of ‘purposes of the processing’, it may be noted that Article 8(2) of that directive expressly distinguishes that notion from ‘objectives of processing’. Article 4(1)(b) of that directive provides that the purposes pursued by the processing of personal data must be, inter alia, specified and explicit and that those data cannot be processed in a manner that is incompatible with those purposes, while Article 4(1)(c) of that directive provides that it is in relation to those purposes that the adequate, relevant and not excessive nature of the processing to which the personal data is subject is to be assessed.
