Another great success of Homo Digitalis!
Following the complaint we had filed before the European Commission in October 2019 and the thorough investigation of the provisions of Law 4624/2019 by the latter, the European Commission decided to send a letter of warning to Greece for not having correctly transposed into national law the provisions concerning, among others, the scope of Directive 2016/680 on law enforcement and the time limits for data storage.
Our country now has two months to respond and take the necessary measures to remedy the breach of EU law found by the Commission. Otherwise, the Commission may decide to send a reasoned opinion.
