The main purpose of this study is to determine which conflict of law rules constitute the basis for the search for the law applicable to private-law compensation claims provided for in Article 82 of the GDPR, and whether it is possible to apply the Rome II Regulation on the law applicable to non-contractual obligations in this regard. The authors first set out the main features of the claim, with particular emphasis on those areas where discrepancies may arise at the level of national law. They then qualify the claim as a tortious one, which leads them to pose a question about the applicability of the Rome II Regulation in this case. Special attention is given to the relationship between privacy and personal data protection. The authors argue that these two spheres have become gradually separated from each other and finally, under GDPR, claims for damages for a breach of personal data protection being independent of claims for an infringement of personal rights. Consequently, they assume that the law applicable to a claim under Article 82 of the GDPR should be indicated on the basis of the Rome II Regulation, despite the doubts arising from the exclusion provided for in Article 1.2.g Rome II. If approach is accepted, it will have significant consequences for the harmonisation of the application of the GDPR in the EU Member States, and for achieving the harmonisation of decisions at the level of national law.

Private international law is of great practical importance in the European Union, especially for the proper functioning of the internal market. It has been enacted mainly in the form of the Rome I-Regulation. The question of which national law applies in a cross-border case is often decisive with regard to employment contracts, because national substantive employment laws remain extremely diversified. The first aim of this paper is to outline the major issues relating to conflict-of-laws rules concerning the employment relationship. The second aim is to show the scope of the freedom to choose the law applicable to the employment relationship. The employment relationship, like any contractual relationship, can be subject to the law chosen by the parties but this choicehas limited practical importance. The priority is therefore the protection guaranteed to the employee under the law of the state indicated by objective hyphens.

Artykuł zawiera analizę skutków wyboru prawa dokonanego przez strony w umowach o charakterze międzynarodowym oraz w umowach, które zamykają się w obszarze jednego państwa i nie zawierają elementu obcego, który uzasadniałby stosowanie norm kolizyjnych. Podstawą do dokonanej analizy jest wyrok TSUE z 8 czerwca 2017 r. w sprawie C-54/16, Vinyls Italia SpA w upadłości a Mediterranea di Navigazione SpA, w którym Trybunał uznał, że przepisy rozporządzenia upadłościowego są przepisami lex specialis wobec rozporządzenia Rzym I o prawie właściwym dla zobowiązań umownych. Daje to zdaniem Trybunału kompetencje stronom do dokonania wyboru prawa – prawa państwa trzeciego (członkowskiego) w tym przypadku prawa angielskiego – ze skutkami wyboru kolizyjnego w umowach, w których nie występuje element obcy – w tej sprawie umowy czarteru morskiego statku włoskiego pomiędzy dwoma spółkami włoskimi (z siedzibą we Włoszech). Autor wyklucza możliwość istnienia relacji lex specialis – lex generalis pomiędzy rozporządzeniem upadłościowym i Rozporządzeniem Rzym I. Wskazuje także na kierunek wykładni – liberalny – występowania elementu obcego w ramach umowy. Artykuł zawiera wniosek, że drogą poszerzania autonomii woli stron jest materialnoprawna zasada swobody umów.

The article focuses on the issue of the choice of law made by the parties to a contract in the situation of the conflict of laws. It includes an analysis of the effects of the choice of law made by the parties in an international contract and in contracts that are limited to the area of one state and do not include a foreign element which would justify the application of conflict-of-law rules. The basis for the analysis is the judgement of 8 June 2017 in case C- 54/16, Vinyls Italia SpA, in liquidation, v Mediterranea di Navigazione SpA, in which the Court of Justice ruled that the provisions of the insolvency regulation are the lex specialis provisions with respect to the Rome I regulation on the law applicable to contractual obligations. In the opinion of the Court of Justice, this gives the parties the competencies to elect the applicable law – the law of a third country (a member state), in this case the English law – with the effects of the choice of law in contracts that do not include a foreign element – in this case the charter contract of an Italian ship concluded between two Italian companies (with registered seats in Italy). The article explores and excludes the possibility of the lex specialis – lex generalis relationship between the insolvency regulation and Rome I. Both regulations have separate scopes of regulation. It also indicates the liberal direction of the interpretation of the occurrence of a foreign element in a contract. The conclusion is that in order to extend the autonomy of the will of the parties, it is necessary to apply the substantive principle of the freedom of contracts, not the choice of law, which is related to conflict-of-law situations.
