"In the digital age, technology allows us to create, store and send enormous quantities of data. It is an illusion to think we could stop this technological revolution. That being the case, the risk of a violation of data protection provisions is very real and could pose serious risks to individuals’ fundamental rights.
First, it is essential to educate and raise awareness among citizens, particularly young people, about intelligent use of these technologies. The emphasis should be on reinforcing existing measures and we should engage in a comprehensive approach. We must consolidate and further reinforce the high level of protection for data subjects and specifically protect vulnerable persons, in particular, children.
We must also ensure that we improve the means of exercising, and awareness of, the rights of access, of rectification, of erasure and blocking of data, so that citizens are able to exercise their rights. Nonetheless, we must underline that the data protection regime, without hindering the protection of private life and data, must keep administrative and financial costs to a minimum, particularly for SMEs."@en1
