Data Brokers and the Regulation from the Perspective of Personal Information Protection
Establishing a market for data elements and promoting open sharing and utilization of data is of great significance for high-quality development,which has led to the importance attached to the data intermediary and brokerage industry with the aim to stimulate the enthusiasm of more entities and achieve greater value.In practice,various social entities can purchase data from data brokers to optimize their products and services,but it is worth discussing where the data of data brokers comes from,whether the public has the right to exercise their rights under the personal information protection law,and whether the industry needs to be regulated by the government.China carries out local pilot reforms and accumulates experience,which can help alleviate the drawbacks of opacity and lack of responsibility of data brokers existing outside China.In future,data brokers should also be subject to government regulation in addition to self-regulation,with clear rules on industry transparency,accountability,and other aspects;it is also necessary to further promote the concept of data governance and democracy,and establish diversified ways for data circulation;it is advisable to standardize data brokers within diverse data circulation methods,so as to ensure that personal information is fully protected while achieving data circulation.To achieve the roles of data collaboration,reuse,and fusion,the focus will not be on determining traditional right-holding,but rather on designing relevant rules and promoting various entities to access and share data at a lower cost,thereby enriching the application scenarios of data.
