Information Privacy Law

Information Privacy Law refers to regulations that protect individuals' personal data from misuse. These laws govern how organizations collect, store, and share information like contact details, health records, and financial data. They aim to ensure that individuals have control over their own information and that organizations must handle it responsibly and transparently. This includes obtaining consent before data collection, allowing individuals to access their data, and requiring organizations to safeguard it against breaches. Prominent examples include the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in Europe and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) in the United States.
