电子商务和其他平台的发展显着增加了在线共享和提交的个人数据量；然而，这些数据的充分和安全收集和处理却令人十分担忧。随着2018年欧盟实施新的数据保护法规，全球个人数据保护的发展达到了重要的转折点，并引发了学者和企业的兴趣。采用文本编码来比较欧盟和中国当前的个人数据保护法规格局，以发现《通用数据保护法规》与增长最快的电子商务经济体的个人数据保护法规之间的差异。结果表明，虽然在数据处理原则和数据主体基本权利等总体要求上存在一些相似之处，但中国的个人数据保护法规往往缺乏具体的操作要求和强有力的法律执行。根据研究结果，为政府和企业提供启示和建议。
The growth of e-commerce and other platforms has significantly increased the amount of personal data that is shared and submitted online; however, the adequate and secure collection and processing of these data is of great concern. With the EU’s implementation of a new data protection regulation in 2018, the development of personal data protection globally has reached an important turning point and has sparked the interest of scholars and businesses. Text coding was employed to compare the current personal data protection regulation landscape in the EU and in China to discover the differences between the General Data Protection Regulation and the personal data protection regulations of the fastest-growing economy in e-commerce. The results show that while there are several similarities in regard to general requirements, such as principles of data processing and basic rights for data subjects, China’s personal data protection regulations tend to lack specific operational requirements and strong legal enforcement. Based on the research results, implications and recommendations for the government and companies are provided.
