U.S. bill on the protection of personal data on the Internet
In the U.S. there is a draft law that regulates the use of personal data on the Internet.
It obliges online platforms to limit the collection of personal data. The permission for the collection of personal data will have to be asked in a clear and comprehensible way.
The bill also stipulates that users must be able to opt out of targeted ads and pays special attention to the protection of children and minors.
The Federal Trade Commission is to be the body responsible for enforcing the new requirements in the area of personal data.
