What Is Proposed Comprehensive Personal Data Protection Law and Related Sectoral Privacy Measures?
The latest INTIC updates supplied for this profile continue to describe Mozambique's comprehensive personal-data law as a proposal approved by the Council of Ministers and under consideration by the Assembly. No enacted effective date was located, so this entry does not present the proposal as an enacted general privacy statute. The current evidence supports constitutional access and rectification, obligations under the Electronic Transactions Law, and an INTIC reporting channel. The INCM also provides a sector-specific free global SMS-PROMO opt-out with stated implementation windows. No general data-broker route was located. This is a bounded profile of the proposal status and the specific constitutional, electronic-transactions, reporting, and telecom mechanisms identified in the supplied sources; it is not a complete account of Mozambique's proposed or sectoral privacy framework.

Protected data
Data subject rights
Constitutional right of access
Constitutional right of rectification
Right to use the INTIC reporting channel identified in the supplied materials
Sector-specific free global SMS-PROMO opt-out through the INCM mechanism
Notable features
The comprehensive framework remains a proposal, so this profile does not assign it an enacted year. The INCM SMS-PROMO mechanism is sector-specific and should not be generalized into a comprehensive privacy or broker-removal route.
Enforcement & penalties
Regulator: INTIC (reporting channel located; comprehensive supervisory status not established)
Penalties: The supplied summary and sources did not provide a consolidated penalty schedule or amount, so no penalty figure is stated here.
Private right of action: The supplied research identifies constitutional, reporting, and sectoral routes but does not establish a separate private damages action or a standalone private-right-of-action rule for the proposed comprehensive framework.
Relevance to data brokers
No Mozambique-specific data-broker, people-search, or general public-record removal route was located. The constitutional, INTIC, electronic-transactions, and SMS-PROMO mechanisms should not be presented as a confirmed general broker opt-out process.
