Summary/Abstract: The protection of personal data implies the right of the individual to defend those characteristics that lead to his identification and the correlative liability of the state to take appropriate measures to ensure effective protection. The individuals’ fundamental right to private and intimate life has to be protected and defended, so the protection of personal data implies a particularly important area. We have to make it clear that technology has evolved rapidly and new challenges for personal data protection have emerged, allowing both private companies and public authorities to use personal data at an unprecedented level in their work. Broadly speaking, personal data means information that can be directly or indirectly related to an identified or identifiable personal.
