The Right to Data Portability

The Right to Data Portability allows individuals to request and transfer their personal data from one service provider to another in a structured, commonly used format. For example, if you decide to switch social media platforms, you can take your photos, contacts, and posts with you. This right empowers consumers by giving them greater control over their personal information, ensuring that they are not locked into a single service and can easily manage their data across different platforms. It promotes competition and innovation while protecting user privacy.
