The European Data Protection Board (EDPB) and European Data Protection Supervisor (EDPS) issued a Joint Opinion on the EU Commission’s proposed Digital Omnibus Regulation, aiming to streamline GDPR and related laws. They generally support simplification but oppose narrowing the definition of personal data and urge stronger protections across AI, scientific research, cookies, data breach reporting, and data subject rights. Their recommendations focus on clarity, robust safeguards, and preserving fundamental data protection rights.
