Bangladesh's Data Protection Bill
SSRN Electronic Journal(2023)
摘要
Of the few countries in Asia which do not have data privacy laws or Government Bills, Bangladesh is the most likely to enact such a law. The government released The Data Protection Act, 2022 for public comment in April 2022, but it has not yet reached the floor of Bangladesh’s unicameral Parliament. This article is a brief introduction to the Bill, its strengths and weaknesses, noting key features such as:* A confusing approach to extra-territorial application.* A mistaken exclusion of pseudonymous data.* A reliance on consent rather than legitimate grounds for processing.* A separate requirement to protect ‘the right of privacy’ in data collection, processing and use.* A non-independent Data Protection Office (regulator) must be established by the government, controlled by the Digital Security Agency, and headed by its Director-General.* The maximum penalties or compensation will be US$ 5,000 (approx. 500,000 (5 lac) Bangadeshi rupees (taka)).
