What You'll Learn

Individuals today face increasing risks to the privacy and security of their personal information and there are growing concerns over how such information may be used or misused. Many countries have enacted new data privacy laws, or amended their existing laws, in recent years to enhance the protection of individuals� personal information. While there are often many similarities in the specific requirements of such laws, countries� objectives and approaches often differ with some focusing primarily on the protection of individual rights and freedoms, others emphasising the role of data in the digital economy and cross-border trade and yet others leveraging their laws to enhance national security and promote national development. Companies operating globally are thus required to navigate an increasingly complex legal environment.

This course will review theories of data privacy and will mainly focus on data privacy laws in the US and Europe. As this area of law continues to face new challenges arising from developments in business and technology, this module will conclude by examining the role of data privacy laws in regulating emerging technologies.
