Content Overview
Recent years have witnessed an unparalleled growth in data protection legislation, primarily as a knock-on effect from the sharp surge in mobile and consumer technologies. In particular, the lawful processing of personal data is quickly becoming a priority for so-called “smart appliances”.
Networked devices, capable of exchanging data, must be used in a such a way as to protect users from the risk of privacy breaches. This topic also covers data protection implications for connected products.
We cover the principal national data protection and privacy laws and regulations in C2P, both proposed and enacted, focusing on:
- Collection, storage and use of data
- Fair and lawful data processing
- Individual’s rights
- Sharing of data
- Data transfer to other countries
