(4) Obrada osobnih podataka trebala bi biti osmišljena tako da bude u službi čovječanstva.
Pravo na zaštitu osobnih podataka nije apsolutno pravo; mora ga se razmatrati u vezi s njegovom funkcijom u društvu te ga treba ujednačiti s drugim temeljnim pravima u skladu s načelom proporcionalnosti.
Ovom se Uredbom poštuju sva temeljna prava i uvažavaju slobode i načela priznata Poveljom koja su sadržana u Ugovorima, osobito poštovanje privatnog i obiteljskog života, doma i komuniciranja, zaštita osobnih podataka, sloboda mišljenja, savjesti i vjeroispovijedi, sloboda izražavanja i informiranja, sloboda poduzetništva, pravo na učinkoviti pravni lijek i pošteno suđenje te pravo na kulturnu, vjersku i jezičnu raznolikost.
(4) The processing of personal data should be designed to serve mankind.
The right to the protection of personal data is not an absolute right; it must be considered in relation to its function in society and be balanced against other fundamental rights, in accordance with the principle of proportionality.
This Regulation respects all fundamental rights and observes the freedoms and principles recognised in the Charter as enshrined in the Treaties, in particular the respect for private and family life, home and communications, the protection of personal data, freedom of thought, conscience and religion, freedom of expression and information, freedom to conduct a business, the right to an effective remedy and to a fair trial, and cultural, religious and linguistic diversity.
