Explanation
Under GDPR, personal data is any information that relates to or can identify a living natural person, directly or indirectly. A Social Security number (B) directly identifies an individual. A portion of an address such as street, postcode, or region (C) can identify a person when combined with other data, and GDPR explicitly includes partial identifiers. A MAC address (E) is a network hardware identifier tied to a device that can be linked to a specific individual, making it personal data under GDPR. A password (A) is a security credential, not an identifier of a person. An EAN/International Article Number (D) identifies commercial products, not persons, so it is not personal data.
