Personal data protection training organized for representatives of the Ceadir-Lunga Police Inspectorate

On September 18, 2024, the National Center for Personal Data Protection (NCPDP) organized a training course in the field of personal data protection for the employees of the Ceadir-Lunga Police Inspectorate (PI) of the Police Department of Gagauzia ATU.

The aim of the training course was to increase the IP employees’ awareness on the principles of personal data protection and to ensure the correct application of the legal provisions in the work they perform.

During the event, important topics were discussed, such as: the definition of general notions related to the field of personal data protection; the rights of personal data subjects; the processing of special categories of personal data; the legal way of processing personal data in the activity carried out by police bodies; the requirements for the protection of personal data in the exercise of their duties; the obligations of the police body as data controller in relation to the data subject; ensuring the security and confidentiality of personal data processed, etc.

The training course proved to be an interactive one, with participants asking multiple questions to which they received answers/explanations from the trainers in the field of personal data protection. At the same time, the legal way of processing personal data in the activity carried out by police bodies, as well as the correct procedure of accessing personal data through the State Information Systems, were of great interest for the participants.

About 45 representatives of the Ceadir-Lunga Police Inspectorate of the Police Department of Gagauzia ATU.

The training course is part of the training plan in the subdivisions of the GPI for the year 2024, approved and signed by the heads of the NCPDP and the GPI on January 26 this year.
