From AOC we work to comply with the principle of minimization of data requested from citizens and with the obligations of law 39/15.
All this has led us to consciously design (with the corresponding internal functional and legal review) each of the current screens that appear in the service, and expressly the postal address is an element that we understand that must be minimized to promote electronic notification/communication (faster and cheaper and which is de facto the standard to have in place). In fact, the “postal address” field is always available as an optional field, and as such it is only displayed for those who want to incorporate it (without explicitly encouraging it). We even indicate the cases and limitations of use that the law sets. Specifically for:
- Legal entities.
- Entities without legal personality (communities of owners, temporary unions of companies, etc.).
- People who act in the exercise of a professional activity subject to mandatory membership (notaries, registrars, lawyers, etc.).
- Employees of the AAPP who act as public employees.
- People who represent any of the above subjects.
However, it is clear that there may be some procedures that may involve making amendment requests, but from the AOC, and beyond complying with law 39/15 and the RGPD, we have the firm intention of promoting electronic use as the main channel of communication and reducing the impact on data entry by citizens ("let's make it easy"), and especially in those data that are optional.
It is for this entire explanation that we do not ask for postal details.
