Under the General Data Protection Regulation, the term "processor" means a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which processes personal data on behalf of the controller.
In addition to the term "processor", the General Data Protection Regulation defines several new terms in relation to the processing of personal data, such as "recipient" and "joint controller", which do not have the same meaning. This means that, also on the basis of the guidance of the Information Commissioner, the relevant practice and understanding of these concepts will be further developed, and therefore changes to the individual categories of processors listed below and to the categories of recipientss in the List of categories of recipients of personal data are also possible.
