Significant legislation comes into effect concerning data protection in Hungary by the adoption of the EU 2016/679 General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The regulation comes into force as of 25th of May 2018 and it shall be applied in parallel with the provisions of Hungarian Act CXII of 2011 on the informational self-determination and freedom of information (Information Act.)
Failing the compliance required by the rules may be punished fines up to 20 million euros or up to 4 percent of global revenues of a company, whichever is greater.
