Article 5 of ePrivacy Regulation: Confidentiality of Electronic Communications Data (Proposed Text)
The proposed text for ePrivacy Regulation Article 5 from the 4th of May, 2018 is below, covering the confidentiality of electronic communications data. This will likely change in the next month or two as they are meeting to discuss the changes to the current ePrivacy Directive. We will update accordingly. Negotiations continue about the precise text and the current version gives one year from the date of entry into force for implementation. We will post the full text when it is available.
Article 5: Confidentiality of electronic communications data
Electronic communications data shall be confidential. Any interference with electronic communications data, including listening, tapping, storing, monitoring, scanning or other kinds of interception, surveillance or processing of electronic communications data, by anyone other than the end-users concerned, shall be prohibited, except when permitted by this Regulation.
