Luxembourg overview

Luxembourg has a national GDPR overlay

The GDPR applies directly, but it leaves Member States choices in areas such as children, employment, sensitive data, research, freedom of expression, public-sector processing and supervisory procedure. Luxembourg uses its national law to exercise those choices.

National law

LU-DPA-2018: Law of 1 August 2018

What to assess

Start with the GDPR baseline, then assess the national provisions concerning expression, research safeguards, genetic data, professional secrecy and workplace surveillance. Apply sector legislation and regulator measures where the national law refers to them.

Compliance method

Use the country-specific law page and controls as a delta layer. Retain the current official text, an applicability decision and evidence for every national rule implemented.
