Who regulates data protection in your jurisdiction 

(ministry, regulatory body, etc.)?

Does your country or territory have data protection 

laws or regulations?

sectors regulated differently?

 

ƒ

Who is responsible for enforcement of data protec-

tion laws and regulations within your jurisdiction?

 

ƒ

Is your sector or industry most concerned with a 

particular aspect of the data protection lifecycle?

 

ƒ

Is your sector or industry concerned with a partic-

ular user demographic?

tion? Is there a mechanism to rectify data breaches 

publicly?

 

ƒ

Are there existing avenues for public-private dia-

logue on data protection? Are there currently op-

portunities for the private sector to work alongside 

regulators and policymakers to create and uphold 

data protection laws?

 

ƒ

Have you engaged with frameworks regulating 

data protection at the regional or international lev-

el?
