Concept Note:
The International Seminar on Data Protection and Data Privacy is taking place on 18th December, 2021Online. The International Seminar on Data Protection And Data Privacy is being organized by Law Mantra Trust, The Indian Law Institute New Delhi, Rajiv Gandhi National University of Law, Punjab, Maharashtra National Law University, Nagpur & Advanced Centre on Research, Development & Training in Cyber Law and Forensics, National Law School of India University, Bangalore.
The COVID-19 pandemic has turned into a global emergency, with terrible implications in terms of human life and economic decline. This lethal disease and its economic consequences have wreaked havoc on each and every section of the society. During the pandemic, government officials and businesses had to strike a balance between two competing priorities: public health and personal privacy. Some actions aimed at limiting the virus’s transmission and maybe saving lives may have major human-rights consequences.
While many public-health authorities do not necessitate data collecting, others may infringe on privacy concerns for people. Government authorities and businesses may find themselves on the horns of a dilemma, contemplating ways to stop the virus from spreading but also severely restricting the rights and freedoms of the people whose lives they aim to safeguard. This calls for the need to formulate stringent Data Privacy Laws so that the sensitive personal data collected is safeguarded.
