數據控制者目錄

數據控制者目錄(英語:Register of data controllers)是英國依據《1998年數據保護法案》設立的資料庫。目錄由資訊專員辦公室英語Information Commissioner's Office管理,[1]用於登記數據控制者(數據收集者)的信息以及收集和處理數據的目的。[2][3][4]

根據《數據保護法案》,在某些情況下,數據控制者可豁免登記。[5]當無法達到豁免要求[6]時,在開始收集數據前未能通知資訊專員辦公室(即登記到目錄)是一項無過失責任罪行,可被資訊專員辦公室刑事檢控。[7]

登記加入目錄繳納的費用被直接用於英國資訊專員辦公室的運作。任何人均可免費查詢此目錄。
