Term, not defined in lawEHDSGDPR
This is not a legal definition but is described in Recital 162 of the GDPR; it is also used as a purpose in Article 53 of the EHDS.
The GDPR describes statistics in recital 162: statistical purposes mean any operation of collection and the processing of personal data necessary for statistical surveys or for the production of statistical results. Characteristically, the result is not personal data but aggregate data, and that result and the personal data are not used in support of measures or decisions regarding any particular natural person.
