Access or protect personal data (1)

  • Agencija za zaštitu ličnih podataka i slobodan pristup informacijama (AZLP)Regional route · check eligibility

    For violations of personal-data rights connected to Montenegro. The current law covers processing in Montenegro and certain foreign controllers using processing equipment there, not mere transit. Citizenship alone does not determine protection. Ask AZLP to check jurisdiction over a foreign platform; this is not a general account appeal.

    AZLP can investigate and require correction of unlawful processing, prohibit processing or order deletion under Article 71. Article 47 also allows a written request for a temporary processing ban pending a decision where a violation is established or made plausible. Acceptance, compensation and account recovery are not guaranteed; a moderation disagreement alone is not a data-rights violation.

    What to do
    1. For access, correction or deletion, send the controller a written request and retain proof and its reply. Articles 43–44 set 15-day controller duties; Article 44 allows referral after refusal or failure to act. Article 47 separately permits a rights-protection request for an alleged violation, so do not assume a universal exhaustion requirement.
    2. Use “Zahtjev za zaštitu prava” under personal-data forms. It requests name, address, phone, the entity responsible, a description, supporting documents, date and signature. Add relevant dates, screenshots and controller correspondence; explain the data right and remedy sought. Redact irrelevant third-party data. Never send passwords or complaint documents to ClearRules.
    3. Download and complete the signed rights-protection form addressed to AZLP, Bulevar Revolucije 11, Podgorica. Confirm delivery arrangements with AZLP’s published contact before sending. Email acceptance, an online complaint portal and receipt were not verified. The controller-registration and freedom-of-information services are not this complaint route.

    Checked 7 November 2026 against official forms and laws. Law 133/26 is published, but Article 106 delays application until six months after entry into force; it does not yet replace this procedure. Article 98 preserves the old rules for pending cases. Recheck before filing after the transition. No filing or receipt was tested; ClearRules collects no complaint documents.

What to do after applying

No reply yet

Under the presently applicable Article 47, AZLP must decide within 60 days of filing. This is a statutory decision period, not a guaranteed outcome or the filing deadline. No general complaint-filing limit was verified. Seek prompt advice on your dates and any judicial deadline.

Your application was not accepted

Read the reason. A case outside the body’s powers, missing documents and a decision against your claim call for different next steps. Correct the stated gaps or follow the appeal instructions in the reply. Check the appeal deadline before submitting again.

You have a reply, but the issue remains

Keep the signed request, attachments and delivery proof; ask for a case reference and respond to AZLP’s requests. Article 47 allows an administrative-court challenge to the decision. Check the decision’s appeal instructions promptly; a court-filing deadline was not verified here. Article 68 permits an objection to the inspection record within eight days of receiving it.

Does every country have an account-recovery route?

We have not confirmed that every country has an account-recovery process outside Meta. This directory covers the listed countries, with options for data, payments, harmful content and, where available, account restrictions and court claims. Several links do not mean several ways to restore an account. We state when no suitable option has been found.

The review covers the entries in this directory. It does not establish that every possible route has been found. An accessible page, an applicable procedure and a successful outcome are different things.

How to use this directory

Different bodies handle different issues. A refused data request, a payment dispute and an account appeal involve separate procedures. Choose the one that matches your situation. The body you contact decides whether to accept the case and what action to take.

Each card shows when its sources were researched. No real complaints were submitted.
