Explanation

The right to data portability only applies when the processing is based on the data subject's consent or on a contract with the data subject. Therefore, if the processing is necessary for a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller, the right to data portability does not apply. This is because the data subject does not have a direct influence on the purpose or the means of the processing in such cases.
