Article 3Provision of information to data subjects#
1.The Commission shall publish on its website a data protection notice that informs all data subjects of its activities involving processing of their personal data for the purposes set out in Article 2(1), second subparagraph.
2.The data protection notice shall include a section providing general information to data subjects on the potential for restriction of data subjects’ rights pursuant to Article 2(1). It shall cover the rights that may be restricted, the grounds on which restrictions may be applied and potential duration of those restrictions.
3.The Commission shall individually inform, by appropriate means, victims and witnesses who report cases of psychological and sexual harassment, about the processing of their personal data.
4.Upon completion of the informal procedure with the Chief Confidential Counsellor, the Commission shall inform the alleged harasser whose data subject rights have been restricted in accordance with this Decision individually, in writing and without undue delay of the relevant restrictions of their rights. The Commission shall inform the data subject of the principal reasons on which the application of the restriction is based, of their right to consult the Data Protection Officer with a view to challenging the restriction, and of their right to lodge a complaint with the European Data Protection Supervisor. The Commission may continue to restrict certain data subject rights linked to personal data processed for the purposes of the informal procedure after the completion of the informal procedure if this is strictly necessary for the protection of the victim or other persons concerned, and shall, if possible, provide an indication of a period in which the rights will be fully restored.
