EU provides highest restriction on data use, and privacy protection South Korea, highest in East. Middle East prominent in not providing adequate legislation, with exception to UAE and Qatar.
Forrester’s map is based on these criteria and provides a good overview of the maturity of data privacy in the world. As we can see the European Union provides the highest restriction in the use private data and provides the highest privacy protection. In the East, South Korea is the one with the highest protection of data privacy. The Middle East is prominent in not providing adequate legislation for privacy protection with only UAE and Qatar providing some restrictions with legal provisions for data protection.
