The measure was the result of a request, by an interest party, to adopt all the most appropriate measures to remove from Wikip ia a biographical article regarding his involvement in a judicial case in which he was a defendant, together with the adoption of specific technical de-indexing measures to make this article inaccessible via search engines external to the site.
The motivation underlying this request can be found in the fact that, in the interest party’s opinion, in the relationship between the right to report and the protection of one’s personal identity, by virtue of the time that has pass , the former can now be said to have weaken , as there is no longer an appreciable social interest in the news and indexing is contrary to the principle of essentiality of information.
Wikip ia’s response
Wikip ia Foundation, in its defense, had Russia Phone Numbers respond negatively to this request , claiming that it was not requir to comply with European data processing regulations. This is because, according to Wikip ia Foundation, the service offer is not direct , specifically, to the interest party to whom the personal data refers, since the Foundation’s goal is to give people around the world the opportunity to collect and develop ucational content and freely disseminate it. Therefore, the Foundation limits itself to hosting the information regarding the interest party in question because he or she is a noteworthy person and not to provide a specific service to the complainant himself or herself.
The provision of the Guarantor
However, the opinion of the Australia Phone Number List Guarantor and the relat conclusions on Wikip ia’s activity are clear : not only does it offer information services on a wide variety of topics, but it also directs them to the European market, regardless of whether they are free of charge.
This is demonstrat by the constant action of addressing and verifying the quality standards of the contents address by the Foundation to the community and the creation of versions of the site d icat to users of one or more Member States. Consequently, the requirement of intentionality in the offer of services is fulfill , which allows the application of the GDPR to a Data Controller establish in a third country and without an establishment in the EU.
