(c)	processing is necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person where the data subject is physically or legally incapable of giving consent;

(d)

processing is carried out in the course of its legitimate activities with appropriate safeguards by a foundation, association or any other not-for-profit body with a political, philosophical, religious or trade union aim and on condition that the processing relates solely to the members or to former members of the body or to persons who have regular contact with it in connection with its purposes and that the personal_data are not disclosed outside that body without the consent of the data subjects;

Article 54

(a)	the establishment of each supervisory_authority;

(b)	the qualifications and eligibility conditions required to be appointed as member of each supervisory_authority;

(c)	the rules and procedures for the appointment of the member or members of each supervisory_authority;

(d)

the duration of the term of the member or members of each supervisory_authority of no less than four years, except for the first appointment after 24 May 2016, part of which may take place for a shorter period where that is necessary to protect the independence of the supervisory_authority by means of a staggered appointment procedure;

During their term of office, that duty of professional secrecy shall in particular apply to reporting by natural persons of infringements of this Regulation.

Section 2

Competence, tasks and powers

whereas

(18) This Regulation does not apply to the processing of personal_data by a natural person in the course of a purely personal or household activity and thus with no connection to a professional or commercial activity.
Personal or household activities could include correspondence and the holding of addresses, or social networking and online activity undertaken within the context of such activities.
However, this Regulation applies to controllers or processors which provide the means for processing personal_data for such personal or household activities.

- = -

(35) Personal data_concerning_health should include all data pertaining to the health status of a data subject which reveal information relating to the past, current or future physical or mental health status of the data subject.
This includes information about the natural person collected in the course of the registration for, or the provision of, health care services as referred to in Directive 2011/24/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council (9) to that natural person; a number, symbol or particular assigned to a natural person to uniquely identify the natural person for health purposes; information derived from the testing or examination of a body part or bodily substance, including from genetic_data and biological samples; and any information on, for example, a disease, disability, disease risk, medical history, clinical treatment or the physiological or biomedical state of the data subject independent of its source, for example from a physician or other health professional, a hospital, a medical device or an in vitro diagnostic test.

- = -

(51) Personal data which are, by their nature, particularly sensitive in relation to fundamental rights and freedoms merit specific protection as the context of their processing could create significant risks to the fundamental rights and freedoms.
Those personal_data should include personal_data revealing racial or ethnic origin, whereby the use of the term ‘racial origin’ in this Regulation does not imply an acceptance by the Union of theories which attempt to determine the existence of separate human races.
The processing of photographs should not systematically be considered to be processing of special categories of personal_data as they are covered by the definition of biometric_data only when processed through a specific technical means allowing the unique identification or authentication of a natural person.
Such personal_data should not be processed, unless processing is allowed in specific cases set out in this Regulation, taking into account that Member States law may lay down specific provisions on data protection in order to adapt the application of the rules of this Regulation for compliance with a legal obligation or for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.
In addition to the specific requirements for such processing, the general principles and other rules of this Regulation should apply, in particular as regards the conditions for lawful processing.
Derogations from the general prohibition for processing such special categories of personal_data should be explicitly provided, inter alia, where the data subject gives his or her explicit consent or in respect of specific needs in particular where the processing is carried out in the course of legitimate activities by certain associations or foundations the purpose of which is to permit the exercise of fundamental freedoms.

- = -

(56) Where in the course of electoral activities, the operation of the democratic system in a Member State requires that political parties compile personal_data on people's political opinions, the processing of such data may be permitted for reasons of public interest, provided that appropriate safeguards are established.

- = -

(96) A consultation of the supervisory_authority should also take place in the course of the preparation of a legislative or regulatory measure which provides for the processing of personal_data, in order to ensure compliance of the intended processing with this Regulation and in particular to mitigate the risk involved for the data subject.

- = -

(146) The controller or processor should compensate any damage which a person may suffer as a result of processing that infringes this Regulation.
The controller or processor should be exempt from liability if it proves that it is not in any way responsible for the damage.
The concept of damage should be broadly interpreted in the light of the case-law of the Court of Justice in a manner which fully reflects the objectives of this Regulation.
This is without prejudice to any claims for damage deriving from the violation of other rules in Union or Member State law.
Processing that infringes this Regulation also includes processing that infringes delegated and implementing acts adopted in accordance with this Regulation and Member State law specifying rules of this Regulation.
Data subjects should receive full and effective compensation for the damage they have suffered.
Where controllers or processors are involved in the same processing, each controller or processor should be held liable for the entire damage.
However, where they are joined to the same judicial proceedings, in accordance with Member State law, compensation may be apportioned according to the responsibility of each controller or processor for the damage caused by the processing, provided that full and effective compensation of the data subject who suffered the damage is ensured.
Any controller or processor which has paid full compensation may subsequently institute recourse proceedings against other controllers or processors involved in the same processing.
