The citizen will have the full right to dispose of the data array of himself, he will be able to transfer them, for example, another company or a bank. Thanks to such information, they will be able to provide a new customer more profitable product, product or reduced loan rate. But it emphasizes that all this Issues need to be approached as carefully and weigiously. Of course, any action should be made only with the consent of a person, “he concluded.
