EDPB Issues Final Guidance on DSA-GDPR Interaction

The European Data Protection Board (EDPB) has released its final guidance on how the Digital Services Act (DSA) and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) interact. The document clarifies that while the DSA introduces new obligations for online platforms, it does not override existing GDPR principles, and both sets of rules must be applied concurrently.

Key points include the reaffirmation of GDPR’s core data‑protection obligations, the delineation of responsibilities for platform operators, and the emphasis on transparency and accountability. The guidance aims to assist data controllers and processors in navigating overlapping regulatory requirements and ensuring compliance across the EU.
