Italian DPA admonishes media on dissemination of personal data in judicial inquiries

This admonition from the DPA highlights the Authority's continuous focus on privacy protection, even within the context of judicial news. Companies and operators managing communications or content (including digital) must rigorously assess the relevance and non-excessiveness of disseminated personal data, especially if sensitive or related to non-investigated individuals, to avoid penalties and reputational damage. A careful balance between the right to report and personal data protection is essential.
