Art.21 — Right to object, including to direct marketing

Requirement

Data subjects may object to processing based on public task or legitimate interests, which must then stop unless compelling legitimate grounds override; objection to direct marketing (including related profiling) is absolute. The right must be explicitly brought to the data subject's attention, at the latest at the first communication.

What the engine looks for

Every group below must be satisfied — by an affirmative statement, not a plan, a hedge or a denial — for the control to count as covered. A term ending in … matches any word it begins. Supporting terms do not change the verdict — they raise confidence and distinguish a policy that names a mechanism from one that gestures at a category.

Equivalent controls elsewhere

Matched on shared topics. Satisfying this control usually moves these too.
