On the 27th January 2022, the Advocate General Giovanni Pitruzzella has released his opinion about the transfer and the generalised and undifferentiated automated processing of PNR data (Case C-817/19).
These operations, required by the PNR Directive (EU 2016/681), are compatible with the Charter of fundamental rights of the EU, thanks to the safeguards system put in place by the Directive, which consists in the supervision by an independent supervisory authority, empowered to verify the lawfulness of that processing, to conduct investigations, inspections and audits and to deal with complaints lodged by any person concerned.
