Amendment 334· Digital Omnibus proposal Recital 35a (new)

(35a)In accordance with the case-law of the Court of Justice of the European Union (judgment of 5 July 2012, Content Services, C-49/111a), the possibility of accessing mandatory information solely via a hyperlink does not satisfy the requirements that apply to the effective provision of information, as the data subject is unable to store the information permanently and in a form that does not change. These principles, developed in Directive 2011/83/EU2a on consumer rights, should be transferred to the duties to provide information under data protection law, to ensure that data subjects are also able to demonstrate and exercise their rights retrospectively, for example in the event of a dispute.
