for signature in Strasbourg on 28 January 1981 (hereinafter referred to as “the Convention”):
Having regard to Resolution No. 3 on data protection and privacy in the third millennium

Protection of Individuals with regard to Automatic Processing of Personal Data (ETS No. 108) and

Assembly of the Council of Europe on 24 November 2017;
Considering that new challenges to the protection of individuals with regard to the processing
of personal data have emerged since the Convention was adopted;

human rights and fundamental freedoms,

right to control his or her personal data and the processing of such data;”
3 — The fourth recital of the preamble of the Convention shall be replaced by the following:
