DPAS IN THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC
summary
Data protection authorities shift between ex‑ante policy advice and later enforcement, with uneven involvement across countries: some dpas fast‑track guidance while others are sidelined. Governments build contact-tracing apps (centralized and decentralized designs), national covid pass schemes and temporary data sharing (e.g., GP summaries), and some systems fail — a national IT breach exposes 1250 people affected and four insiders are convicted. Studies find 12 then 14 DPAs pivot to COVID work, audits and fines occur, and public trust and legal clarity remain the bottlenecks.
