Abstract

The paper analyses two seemingly incompatible principles, the principle of publicity of land registers and the right to protection of personal data. On 25 May 2018, Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, and repealing Directive 95/46/EC (General Data Protection Regulation), entered into force. Therefore, the paper considers how the GDPR will affect personal data in the land register, whether register rights holders have the right to personal data protection, whether they have the right to be forgotten. The paper also considers how new digital technologies, in addition to facilitating access to data can help control with whom data is shared and who has the right to access it.
