handling people's data transparently is essential for maintaining which individual right under the gdpr?

Handling people's data transparently is essential for maintaining the individual's right to be informed under the GDPR. This right requires that any processing of personal data be conducted lawfully, fairly, and in a transparent manner, making clear to individuals what data is collected, how it is used, and their rights regarding that data. Transparency includes providing information in a concise, easily accessible, and easy-to-understand way, often at the time the data is collected or shortly thereafter.
