1.   Wara li jikkunsidra l-ogħla livell ta' żvilupp tekniku, l-ispejjeż tal-implimentazzjoni u n-natura, l-ambitu, il-kuntest u l-finijiet tal-ipproċessar kif ukoll ir-riskji ta' probabbiltà u gravità li jvarjaw għad-drittijiet u l-libertajiet tal-persuni fiżiċi kkawżati mill-ipproċessar, il-kontrollur għandu, kemm fiż-żmien tad-determinazzjoni tal-mezzi għall-ipproċessar kif ukoll fiż-żmien tal-ipproċessar innifsu, jimplimenta miżuri tekniċi u organizzattivi xierqa, bħall-psewdonimizzazzjoni, li huma maħsuba biex jimplimentaw il-prinċipji tal-protezzjoni tad-data, bħalma hija l-minimizzazzjoni tad-data, b'mod effettiv u biex jintegraw is-salvagwardji meħtieġa fl-ipproċessar sabiex jissodisfa r-rekwiżiti ta' dan ir-Regolament u jipproteġi d-drittijiet tas-suġġetti tad-data.

2.   Il-kontrollur għandu jimplimenta miżuri tekniċi u organizzattivi adatti biex jiżgura li, b'mod awtomatiku, tiġi pproċessata biss data personali li mhijiex meħtieġa għal kull għan speċifiku tal-ipproċessar. Dak l-obbligu japplika għall-ammont ta' data personali miġbura, il-livell ta' pproċessar tagħha, il-perijodu tal-ħażna tagħha u l-aċċessibbiltà tagħha. B'mod partikolari, tali mekkaniżmi għandhom jiżguraw li b'mod awtomatiku d-data personali ma ssirx aċċessibbli mingħajr l-intervent tal-individwu għal numru indefinit ta' persuni fiżiċi.

3.   Jista' jintuża mekkaniżmu ta' ċertifikazzjoni approvat skont l-Artikolu 42 bħala element li juri l-osservanza tar-rekwiżiti mogħtija fil-paragrafi 1 u 2 ta' dan l-Artikolu.

1.   Taking into account the state of the art, the cost of implementation and the nature, scope, context and purposes of processing as well as the risks of varying likelihood and severity for rights and freedoms of natural persons posed by the processing, the controller shall, both at the time of the determination of the means for processing and at the time of the processing itself, implement appropriate technical and organisational measures, such as pseudonymisation, which are designed to implement data-protection principles, such as data minimisation, in an effective manner and to integrate the necessary safeguards into the processing in order to meet the requirements of this Regulation and protect the rights of data subjects.

2.   The controller shall implement appropriate technical and organisational measures for ensuring that, by default, only personal data which are necessary for each specific purpose of the processing are processed. That obligation applies to the amount of personal data collected, the extent of their processing, the period of their storage and their accessibility. In particular, such measures shall ensure that by default personal data are not made accessible without the individual's intervention to an indefinite number of natural persons.

3.   An approved certification mechanism pursuant to Article 42 may be used as an element to demonstrate compliance with the requirements set out in paragraphs 1 and 2 of this Article.
