Data Protection

Consent

Freely given, informed, and unambiguous agreement to data processing.

Definitions (9)

An indication by a data subject that they agree to the processing of their personal data, which must be freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous. The Bill requires mechanisms to obtain, record, and manage valid consent as a lawful basis for processing.

The explicit approval of the subject to produce, alter, or share intimate sexual content; lack of this approval is the central element generating criminal liability under the proposed paragraph.

Prior, informed and written authorization granted by the rights holder (e.g., the performer) that explicitly allows the replication, cloning or other uses of their voice by AI technologies; required for lawful AI-based replication or substitution under the proposed amendments.

An explicit indication by which a data subject, through a clear affirmative act, freely, specifically, informedly and unambiguously signifies agreement to the processing of their personal data for one or more specified purposes; consent must be documented and can be withdrawn.

Refers to a person's voluntary, informed agreement to the production, manipulation, publication, or distribution of intimate images or audiovisual material; the absence of such consent is a central element establishing criminal liability for non‑consensual AI‑generated sexual content involving adults.

An indication of the data subject's wishes that is freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous, which serves as a legal basis for processing personal data in situations where consent is required under the law.

Explicit agreement obtained from an applicant, prior to the video interview, to be evaluated by an artificial intelligence program as described by the employer.

Meticulously defined as an explicit, affirmative act by an individual, communicated in writing, that demonstrates a voluntary, informed, and revocable agreement. This rigorous standard for consent is particularly vital when AI is involved in sensitive data handling or therapeutic interactions.

For the purposes of this Act, consent means a clear, explicit, affirmative act by an individual that unambiguously communicates their express, freely given, informed, voluntary, specific, and unambiguous written agreement. This includes written agreements provided by electronic means, and such consent must be revocable. Notably, the Act specifies what does not constitute valid consent, such as the acceptance of general or broad terms of use, hovering over digital content, or agreements obtained through deceptive actions.
