What Is Law No. 171 of 21 December 2018 on the Protection of Personal Data?

San Marino Law No. 171/2018 entered into force on 5 January 2019, and official records identify amendments through Law No. 132/2023. The located framework provides qualified rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, and objection, including objection to direct marketing. The located materials provide a one-month response period for rights requests, extendable by two months. A complaint form and route to the Garante per la protezione dei dati personali were located. The English or coordinated text is non-authentic, so final wording should be checked against the Italian Official Bulletin. This profile summarizes the supplied source set and does not replace that controlling-language check.
