Introduction

VIZA is an IT system protected by asymmetric encryption on multiple levels. Starting from 1 September 2021, all the personal data required by law from guests staying at Hungarian accommodation sites have been stored in VIZA in an encrypted manner. Accommodation providers process guest data by the last day of the first year following that in which they acquired them; the VIZA system retains the submitted data for a maximum of two years. The police have sole authorisation to perform targeted searches of the data in the interest of crime prevention and law enforcement.

The purpose of VIZA is to protect the rights, safety and property of the data subject and others, and to support monitoring of the adherence to the provisions pertaining to the residence of third-country nationals and those persons with the right to move freely and to reside, i.e. the primary aim of VIZA is to promote public order, public safety, secure border crossing, and the protection of the rights, safety and property of the data subject and others.
