Look, to open the eyes a bit, the EU privacy laws are currently
undergoing reforms:
DPR proposal
http://ec.europa.eu/justice/data-protection/document/review2012/com_2012_11_en.pdf

DPD proposal
http://ec.europa.eu/justice/data-protection/document/review2012/com_2012_10_en.pdf

See EDRI's impressive site: http://protectmydata.eu/

It is easier to amend the law than to wait for constitutional courts.
EDRI alone proposed 186 amendments to the DPR proposal.  Ideally the
whole EU will be brought in line with German data protection standards
(http://www.bfdi.bund.de/EN/DataProtectionActs/Artikel/BDSG_idFv01092009.pdf?__blob=publicationFile)
or even more advanced. The EU is able to create a legal gravitation
field for third nations.

DPR dl for tabling amendments in the Civil Liberties Committee (LIBE):
27 Feb 2013 12h
