5 Countries with GDPR-like Data Privacy Laws

4. United Kingdom

Average Score: 8

Post its exit from the European Union, the UK Government took special measures to transpose relevant protections from the GDPR into a new regime – the UK GDPR. In addition to its wide extraterritorial scope, the UK GDPR also retains nearly all of the material obligations which were binding under the EU GDPR. It is further supplemented by the the Data Protection Act of 2018.
