Recital 52

(52) It is particularly important that the protection of personal data, in accordance with Union law, is ensured in connection to the processing of data under this Directive. The provisions of this Directive should therefore be aligned with Directive (EU) 2016/680. In particular, it should be specified that any personal data exchanged by asset recovery offices is to remain limited to the categories of data listed in Section B, point 2, of Annex II to Regulation (EU) 2016/794. Directive (EU) 2016/680 applies to the processing of personal data by national competent authorities, in particular asset recovery offices, for the purposes of this Directive.
