Privacy regulations are laws designed to protect individuals' personal information from misuse. These rules ensure that organizations, like companies and governments, handle data responsibly and transparently. For example, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in the European Union sets strict guidelines on how personal data should be collected, stored, and shared, giving people more control over their information. These regulations help build trust between consumers and businesses by ensuring that personal data is kept safe. They also impose penalties on organizations that fail to comply, encouraging them to prioritize privacy. Overall, privacy regulations aim to safeguard individual rights in an increasingly digital world.
