ABSTRACT:

The gold rate in India today is about 5490 per gram. Interestingly, what is even more valuable today, perhaps something which cannot be even quantified in money, is Data. Data includes any information or fact, including numbers which have wide applications; right from scientific inventions to making decisions in a corporate field to using it as evidence in the court. Right to privacy has been understood as a fundamental right under Article 21 since the infamous Puttaswamy judgment. With technology becoming our oxygen to breathe, data privacy inevitably becomes the need of the hour. Data privacy generally means the ability of a person to determine for themselves when, how, and to what extent personal information about them is shared with or communicated to others. This personal information can be one's name, location, contact information, or online or real-world behavior. This paper aims to make a comprehensive analysis of the international law- the GDPR and its relevance with ISO 27701/2022 Standard.
