      Privacy Guidelines on Data Processor and Data Controller

      Guidelines 07/2020 on the concepts of controller and processor in the GDPR

      Section 1.4  Instructions infringing data protection law

      142. According to Article 28 (3), the processor must immediately inform the controller if, in its opinion, an instruction infringes the GDPR or other Union or Member State data protection provisions.

      143. Indeed, the processor has a duty to comply with the controller’s instructions, but it also has a general obligation to comply with the law. An instruction that infringes data protection law seems to cause a conflict between the aforementioned two obligations.

      144. Once informed that one of its instructions may be in breach of data protection law, the controller will have to assess the situation and determine whether the instruction actually violates data protection law.

      145. The EDPB recommends the parties to negotiate and agree in the contract the consequences of the notification of an infringing instruction sent by the processor and in case of inaction from the controller in this context. One example would be to insert a clause on the termination of the contract if the controller persists with an unlawful instruction.
