Description of all values

DPA Information

First you need to include the relevant information on the Data Protection Authority. Most of these elements must follow the GDPRhub standards to include the new case in the relevant categories.

• Jurisdiction=Austria

Here you must enter the name of the country or "European Union" for EU decisions. For decisions by the 16 local German state DPAs, please enter "Germany" too.

• DPA-BG-Color=background-color:#ffffff;

Here you can enter the background color that should be displayed behind the DPA logo. In many countries the logo fits well with a transparent background - in this case you leave this variable empty. In most other countries the backgroun needs to be white. In this case you can enter "background-color:#ffffff;" for this variable. Only a hand full of DPAs need a specific color as a background. Check the DPA page to find the code.

• DPAlogo=logoIE.png

The DPA logo is always "logo" + Country Code + ".png". For example the Austrian DPA logo is "logoAT.png". For the 16 local German state DPAs the country code is "DE" + "-" + the state code, so for example "LogoDE-SH.png" is the logo for Schleswig-Holstein.

• DPA_Abbrevation=ICO

The abbreviation is the short form (as used on GDPRhub) for the DPA. For example the Irish Data Protection Commissioner is called "DPC". The UK Information Commissioner's office is called "ICO".

• DPA_With_Country=ICO (United Kingdom)

For certain links GDPRhub also needs the country together with the name of the DPA. Always use the format "DPA" + "(Country)".

Case Identifiers

• Case_Number_Name=DSB-D122.844/0006-DSB/2018

Here you must enter the national case number or the case name. If there are different systems, use the official code or the most relevant code to find a case.

• ECLI=ECLI:AT:DSB:2018:DSB.D122.844.0006.DSB.2018

Some countries also assign a European Case Law Identifier to each decision. If available, please enter it here.

Source Information (up to 2)

• Original_Source_Name_1=XYZ Database

Here you must enter the name of the database or webpage where you got the information about the case.

• Original_Source_Link_1=https://www.xyz.eu/

Here you must enter the link the the source.

• Original_Source_Language_1=English

Here you must enter the original language (e.g. English, German, Spanish).

• Original_Source_Language__Code_1=EN

Here you must enter the two-letter-code of that language (e.g. EN, DE, ES).
