40. Sections 38 and 39 apply subject to any restriction determined under the first paragraph of section 7. In accordance with the second paragraph of that section, such a restriction may be disregarded where the service provider considers that the restriction could endanger the life or integrity of the person concerned and it is impossible to obtain, in a timely manner, the person’s consent to lifting the restriction. In such a case, the service provider must document the reasons that led to that conclusion.
