Data protection regulations are laws designed to safeguard personal information collected by organizations. These regulations ensure that individuals have control over their data, including how it is collected, used, and shared. They aim to protect privacy and prevent misuse of sensitive information. One well-known example of data protection regulation is the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which applies to businesses operating in the European Union. The GDPR sets strict guidelines for data handling and grants individuals rights such as access to their data and the ability to request its deletion.
