privacy law
Privacy law refers to the legal frameworks that protect individuals' personal information from unauthorized access and misuse. These laws govern how organizations collect, store, and share data, ensuring that individuals have control over their own information. Key regulations include the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in the European Union and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) in the United States.
These laws aim to safeguard personal privacy by establishing rights for individuals, such as the right to access their data and the right to request its deletion. Privacy law also imposes obligations on businesses to implement security measures and to be transparent about their data practices.
