Citation
Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR), Article 5(1)(c): personal data shall be "adequate, relevant and limited to what is necessary in relation to the purposes for which they are processed (‘data minimisation’)".
Condition
Personal data collection must be adequate, relevant and limited to what is necessary
Layer 1 detects
collect, gather or request (also inside a longer word) followed later on the same line by personal or sensitive, a space, then data or information. It matches wording, not meaning: it does not read the purpose or whether the data is adequate, relevant and limited to what is necessary, so it fires on every collection of personal data written in these words, including a minimal one ("We collect only the personal data the delivery needs: name and address."), and it misses collection told in other words. Whether a collection is excessive is judged in Layer 2.
Condition type
