Article 13 – Information to be provided where personal data are collected from the data subject

Paragraphs 1, 2 and 3 shall not apply if and to the extent that:

there are reasonable grounds to assume that the data subject already has the information referred to in points (a) and (c) of paragraph 1 [or the provision of information would prove impossible], or (b) the provision of information would involve a disproportionate effort and the processing is likely to result in a low risk to the rights and freedoms of data subjects. This paragraph shall not apply where the processing requires complex processing operations, the processing of large amounts of personal data, [or personal data referred to in Articles 9 and 10].

When the further processing takes place for scientific research purposes by the same controller and where and insofar as the provision of information referred to under paragraphs 1, 2 and 3 proves impossible or would involve a disproportionate effort or in so far as the obligation referred to in paragraph 1 of this Article is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the achievement of the objectives of that further processing, subject to the conditions and safeguards referred to in Article 89(1), the controller does not need to provide the information referred to under paragraphs 1, 2 and 3. In such cases the controller shall take appropriate measures to protect the data subject's rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, including making the information publicly available.
