Digital Privacy

Digital privacy refers to the protection of personal information and data that individuals share, access, and manage in digital environments. It encompasses various practices, policies, and technologies designed to safeguard users’ privacy rights while using the internet and digital devices. Key aspects of digital privacy include the management of personal data, consent regarding data collection and usage, and the measures taken to prevent unauthorized access to sensitive information. It also involves the legal frameworks and regulations that govern data protection, such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in Europe. Digital privacy is critical in an era of increasing surveillance, data breaches, and the pervasive use of social media and online services, emphasizing the importance of user control over personal data and transparency in how data is used by organizations.
