Mandatory Disclosure of Data Storage in China

New rules aim to increase transparency regarding personal data storage. Companies operating websites or mobile apps that store user data in China will be required to clearly disclose this information. This will allow citizens to know where their data is stored and whether Chinese authorities have access to it, enabling them to make more informed decisions.
Key points
Companies must clearly disclose if website or app data is stored in China.
Users will know if the Chinese government or state-owned entities have access to their data.
Providing false information will be treated as an unfair trade practice.
