Abstract

In Macau, however, it was not yet created, as prescribed in the Civil Code (article 79°, 3), the entity in charge of monitoring the collection, storing and use of personal data. Furthermore, some aspects of the problem, e.g. the transfer of personal data to foreign jurisdictions, are not regulated. Nevertheless we can find, scattered throughout the legal system, a host of rules that guarantee some degree of protection to the privacy of personal data and information. The aim of this article is to provide a very brief overview of the protection granted to personal data by the Macau law. Given the nature of the article we won’t delve in technicalities and whoever wishes to know fully the meaning of the legal rules mentioned below should check the quoted statutes.
