Frequently asked questions
When must a breach be notified to ANSPDCP?

Within 72 hours of becoming aware of a personal data breach, unless it is unlikely to result in a risk to individuals.

Does GDPR allow AML data retention?

Yes. Retention required by Law 129/2019 is a legal obligation under GDPR, but data should not be kept longer than the law requires.
