Law (general) / Política de protección de datos personales

Spanish term or phrase: responsable del tratamiento de los datos

"***Responsable del tratamiento de los datos personales***
El responsable del tratamiento es la persona jurídica que determina los fines y medios del tratamiento de datos personales. En otras palabras, el responsable decide cómo y con qué finalidades se tratan los datos personales.
A los efectos de la presente Política de Protección de Datos, el responsable del tratamiento de los datos personales es..."

Para traducir este concepto he localizado varias opciones:

"Personal data controller"
"Party responsible for personal data processing"

Me inclino más por la primera opción ya que la segunda me parece demasiado literal. No sé si hay otras posibilidades.
Me gustaría saber vuestra opinión.

¡Gracias!

Explanation:
Sorry to disagree, but if you check the legislation the following definitions apply:

encargado del tratamiento o encargado = processor

responsable del tratamiento = controller

delegado de protección de datos = data protection officer

el responsable de la protección de datos as explained in the text provided comes closest in my view to el responsable del tratamiento, which is the phrase given in Article 4 (7) GDPR/RGPD

(legal) person responsible for personal data processing

Explanation:
Technically, "la persona jurídica" is the person or entity responsible for what is done with your data once you submit it. It may be the company you give it to, or a division of the same, or a third party employed or subcontracted by the same.
