However, we use the terms of the GDPR throughout this document. The terms ‘personal data’, ‘processing’, ‘processor’, ‘special categories of data’ and data portability used in the GDPR also refer to the terms ‘personal data’, ‘processing’, ‘processor’, ‘data portability’ and ‘sensitive personal data’ used in the DPA, insofar as the DPA applies.
