Albanian Law No. 124/2024 on personal data protection aligns the national framework with the GDPR. Any organization that processes personal data of customers, employees or users needs to know what data it holds, why it holds it and how it is protected.

MH Consulting takes you from where you are today to a documented compliance program. We start with a gap assessment and finish with policies, records and procedures that work in practice and stand up to an inspection.

Frequently asked questions

Law 124 and GDPR Compliance

Who does Law 124/2024 apply to?

In principle, to any public or private organization that processes personal data in Albania, whatever its size. The specific obligations depend on the type and volume of data you process; we establish this in the initial assessment.

How long does a compliance project take?

It depends on the size of the organization and on how much data and how many systems you have. After the initial assessment we give you a phased plan with dates, so you know what is finished and when.

Is a privacy policy on the website enough?

No. The privacy policy is only the visible part. Compliance also needs a record of processing activities, a legal basis for each processing activity, agreements with processors, procedures for data subject requests and incidents, and trained staff.
