[PIO] Written statement by the Commissioner for Personal Data Protection Ms Irini Loizidou-Nikolaidou on the publication of CVs

Publication of CVs of Officials and/or members of the Councils of Legal Entities of Public Law

Regarding publications and posts on social media on the above issue, I consider it useful to inform the public about the following:

Any processing operation must be based on an appropriate legal basis.

In the absence of specific legislation, it is up to each Official and/or Council Member to assess whether it is appropriate to publish his/her CV.

However, I consider that the publication of the CVs of persons holding public office serves the principle of transparency.
