This report is issued at a time when the data protection community is preparing for the application of the long-awaited GDPR. It cannot and does not seek to override the GDPR, to regulate present data protection practices by proposing additional rules. This is adequately and appropriately accomplished by the new regulation. This report proposes concepts and arguments to support and advance data protection as a project of European values. It describes the way traditional concepts of value may be rethought, re-articulated and re-purposed in order to assure the continuity of legitimate practices and anticipate an  unseen future. This task can, by way of conclusion, be condensed into five significant ‘directions’ of thought and innovation. 1. The dignity of the person remains inviolable in the digital age  Life in the digital age is close to a confrontation with the basic principle of personhood: dignity. Digital experience reshapes our understanding of personal  identity, human experience and social  interactions. Digital life will need to be  compatible with the inviolable nature of  human dignity. 2.  Personhood and personal data are inseparable from one another  Personhood - understanding oneself as  a person endowed with moral qualities,  rights and responsibilities - is inseparable  from the information produced by, and  pertaining to that person. 3.  Digital technologies risk weakening the foundation of democratic governance The freedom of choice of each person is  a fundamental principle of democratic  self-governance. Automated, big data-based interaction with political decision-making may be incompatible with  democratic processes. 4.  Digitised data processing risks fostering new forms of discrimination  Profiling is part of everyday cognition and  judgment. Digitally generated profiles  based on very large quantities of data  are powerful and increasingly unaccountable. 5. Data commoditisation risks shifting  value from persons to personal data  The market value of personal data is not  intrinsic but stems from its relationship to  the person or persons who give rise to it. Ethical tensions can arise where human  value and market value intersect.
