This dissertation was written as part of the LLM in Transnational and European
Commercial Law, Banking Law, Arbitration/Mediation at the International Hellenic
University.
Personal Data and access to public documents, two characteristics of a modern
society, two fundamental rights, two formally equivalent laws, which do not are in a
special and general relationship with each other and were adopted without taking into
account each other as if they were two"strangers" who are never going to meet. But,
we are in view of two rights which in many cases can conflict. In other words, is there a
right of access to documents containing personal data of third parties? Even further,
what happens in cases where the documents contain sensitive personal data of third
parties? The topic has been chosen in the context of the study of General Data
Protection Regulation and will be investigated and analyzed taking into account the
past decisions of the Hellenic Data Protection Authority (such as the opinion 6/2013 of
the Hellenic DPA) that were issued in order to provide a solution under the application
of the previous legal regime (Greek law 2472/1997), and the solution that is given by
the GDPR and the current Greek law (law 4624/2019).
