Placing new obligations on companies and organizations that collect personal data, GDPR offers greater power to natural persons, giving them the opportunity to have access to information about them. In accordance with the GDPR, requests for access to personal information can be made free of charge. When someone asks a company for the data they have, they must be given all the information within a maximum of one month. All people will have the right to know if an organization has information about them and more precisely what type of information it has. In addition, the GDPR supports an individual's rights in relation to automatic data processing. The National Supervisory Authority for the Processing of Personal Data declares that all persons "have the right not to be subject to a general decision" if it is an automatic one and produces a significant effect on them. There are certain exceptions, but, in general, people must receive an explanation of a decision made regarding them.

GDPR fines

The GDPR states that some crimes, even those with lesser consequences, could result in fines of up to 10 million euros or 2% of the company's global turnover (however high), and those with consequences more serious ones can have fines of up to 20 million euros or 4% of the company's global turnover (however high it is).
