Abstract: Data protection legislations have been adopted in many countries, however, the level of protection provided varies by region and state. The need for global data protection mechanism is as desirable as never before, which shifts data protection importance to the next level. Luckily, data protection model within the EU is the most advanced one in the world which may serve as a good example for enhancing data protection mechanisms where needed.
