(a)
Processing is defined widely as meaning any operation or activity or any set of operations,
(1) whether or not by automatic means, (1) concerning personal information, including the
collection, use, dissemination by means of transmission, distribution or making available
in any other form. (1) The screening of candidate’s information on social networks does
amount to processing. (1) The Act defines personal information as “information
relating to an identifiable, living, natural person (1) and, where it is applicable, an
identifiable, existing juristic person”. (1)
The Act goes on to list eight different types of information which are included in this
definition. The list is not intended to limit the definition. (1) The list includes sensitive
information, such as information relating to a person’s race, gender, sex, sexual
orientation, religion, and medical history, (1) but also mundane, yet nevertheless
personal, information such as the person’s name. (1)
