Abstract: The paper is aimed at privacy professionals with an in-depth knowledge of issues related to data protection and an interest in the Italian perspective on the topic. After briefly analysing the current institutional approach to the most significant concerns in the area of privacy policies, this contribution will provide a general overview of the current legal framework from the European level up to the domestic setting, also referring to the most significant decisions adopted by the Court of Cassation, the Italian Supreme Court. The study will reflect on the implications that such a legal background could have for current trends and will attempt to predict future developments — or criticalities — in the Italian data protection system.
