The rules and obligations of the GDPR apply to the processing – automated or not – of personal data, meaning any information concerning an identified or identifiable natural person. An identifiable natural person is a natural person who can be directly or indirectly identified by reference to an identification, such as a name, number, location data, an online identifier, or one or more specific elements of the physical, physiological, genetic, psychological, economic, cultural, or social identity.
