what do we understand by 'personal data'?
Personal data is a piece of information about a person (the person concerned), on the basis of which it is possible to identify that person directly, albeit in combination with other retained data. Examples are: a name, an address, contact details, a number plate, correspondence with a person, an IP address, ... even information relating to a person's professional life are considered 'personal data'. The notion is therefore quite broad.
