description: The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is comprised of several articles, each with points that refer to specific concepts. The general convention of referring to these points and concepts is to quote the specific article or point using a human-readable reference. This ontology provides a way to refer to the points within the GDPR using the EurLex ontology published by the European Publication Office. It also defines the concepts defined, mentioned, and requried by the GDPR using the Simple Knowledge Organization System (SKOS) ontology.
abstract: The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) defines legal obligations over the use of personal data by organisations. This ontology aims to identify and model such terms and obligations as an OWL vocabulary and to directly link the terms to their occurence, usage, and influence in the GDPR text.
