The Mandatory State Digital Register of Personal Data Processing Consents

In today’s world, data subjects daily express consents to the processing of a variety of personal data, including sensitive data. Consents are expressed both on paper and electronically, e.g., for profiling, targeted advertising, and cross-border transmission. It’s physically difficult for a data subject to control the list of consents he has ever given to specific geographically distributed companies, to consider data processed, processing attributes, and possible risks from the data breach. The article describes the unified state-mandated digital register of personal data processing consents, designed to provide systematic management of consents and data breach risks, discusses the technological structure, the register functionality, ensuring anonymity and security of data contained in the register, integration of the register to legal space of modern states and their unions to protect data subject rights and reduce paper overuse for environmental improvement.
