Abstract

Consent of the data subject is one of the leading bases to process personal data. However, its role and importance are strongly limited not only by other provisions of data protection law, but also by consumer protection rules. The essay therefore focuses on these limitations, which lead to some more general reflections on the interests at stake in data processing and on the legitimacy of a market of personal data.
