Explanation

According to Article 14 of the GDPR, the data controller must provide the data subject with certain information when collecting personal data from a source other than the data subject. However, there are some exceptions to this obligation, such as when the data subject already has the information, or when the provision of such information proves impossible or would involve a disproportionate effort. The latter exception may apply, for example, when the personal data are collected from a large number of sources, or when the personal data are processed for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes. The data controller must take appropriate measures to protect the data subject's rights and interests, and make the information publicly available.
