Bosnia & Herzegovina: AZLP publishes 2019 annual report, calls for legislative alignment with GDPR

The Agency for Personal Data Protection in Bosnia and Herzegovina ('AZLP') published, on 4 August 2020, its 2019 annual report ('the Report'). In particular, the Report outlines that the Law on the Protection of Personal Data No. 49/06 should be brought in line with the General Data Protection Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2016/679) (‘GDPR’). Furthermore, the Report highlights that the AZLP had completed 16 investigations, received 133 complaints, of which 94 were resolved, issued 25 misdemeanour warrants, and carried out no audit inspections. In addition, the Report outlines that the AZLP issued its opinion on matters including video surveillance, direct marketing, internal data transfers, and the application of the GDPR. Moreover, the Report notes that a total of 837 data controllers were now included in the main register, which records basic information about data controllers and their personal data collection activities, and that a total of 4438 personal data collections had been entered.
