Data Privacy

Data Privacy refers to the right of individuals to control how their personal information is collected, used, and shared by organizations. It encompasses the protection of sensitive data from unauthorized access and misuse, ensuring that personal details such as names, addresses, financial information, and health records are kept confidential. Data privacy laws and regulations are designed to safeguard individuals’ privacy rights and provide guidelines for entities that handle personal data. These laws require entities to obtain consent from individuals before collecting their data, to inform them about how their data will be used, and to implement measures to protect that data from breaches. Overall, data privacy seeks to maintain individuals’ autonomy over their personal information and to promote trust between individuals and organizations in the digital age.
