The processing of personal data of a citizen of the Russian Federation from his passport is possible only with his consent, if a copy of the passport was illegally removed – the citizen has the right to compensation. This was told by the lawyer of the European Legal Service Yulia Tsyn.
According to her, according to Prime, not all organizations have the right to demand a copy of the passport. For example, in stores it is enough to provide only passport data and present a passport for verification of information, there is no need to make a copy. You can check whether this organization has the right to demand a copy of the passport on the website of Roskomnadzor, there is a list.
You can get compensation through the court for illegally demanding a copy of your passport and taking possession of it, Tsyn added. To do this, you should also file a complaint with Roskomnadzor. After checking the complaint and receiving a response from Roskomnadzor, you can apply to the court for compensation for non-pecuniary damage.
