What is the Personal Information Protection Law (PIPL)?
The Personal Information Protection Law (PIPL) is a privacy law introduced in China to give individuals more control over their personal information. It sets clear rules for organizations handling this data, focusing on transparency, consent, and security.

Key Rights Under the PIPL

Right to Know and Decide
You have the right to know how your personal information is collected and used and to decide whether you agree to it.
Is the following statement True or False:
The Right to Know and Decide lets people decide if their personal information is collected and used.
This right empowers individuals by requiring organizations to clearly explain the purpose, scope, and consequences of collecting personal information. By clearly explaining how the data will be used, organizations empower people to decide if they’re comfortable with the collection and use of their personal details.

Organizational Responsibilities
Organizations are required to be transparent about their data practices, obtain clear consent before collecting personal data, protect personal information from unauthorized access or loss, take extra precautions when handling minors' data, and follow rules for transferring data abroad. Let’s explore these key responsibilities in more detail.
Key Responsibilities for Organizations
These first three duties ensure data is collected responsibly and with clarity. By securing lawful grounds, offering transparency, and limiting data to what's needed, organizations build the bedrock of trust and respect for personal information.
Obtain Lawful Basis
Provide Transparency
Ensure Data Accuracy and Minimization
Organizations must gather personal data only for a valid reason or with clear consent. Individuals should know why and how their data is collected, ensuring no overreach. This approach respects user privacy and aligns with legal requirements to protect personal information. Without these safeguards, unauthorized collection can threaten user trust.
People must understand what data is collected, why it’s needed, and how it’s used or shared. Clear notices and simple language prevent confusion. By openly explaining data flows, organizations empower users and foster trust, reducing misunderstandings and disputes about personal information handling.
Organizations must keep data correct and relevant, removing or anonymizing anything outdated. This reduces risks of misuse or errors. Collecting only what’s necessary respects privacy and prevents storing unnecessary details that may lead to breaches or violations of the PIPL.
Under the PIPL, organizations can lawfully collect personal data only if:
The PIPL requires a lawful basis or explicit consent to ensure data handling respects people’s privacy and complies with legal standards.
View Options Again
The individual has no idea it’s being collected
They intend to sell it to third parties
They believe the data might be useful in the future
They have a valid legal reason or the individual’s clear consent
Key Responsibilities for Organizations Continued
Once data is lawfully collected and minimized, it must also be protected. These next three responsibilities center on security measures, handling sensitive information responsibly, and honoring individuals' rights to control their own data.
Implement Security Measures
Sensitive and Minors’ Data
Honor Individual Rights
Adopt measures like encryption, access controls, and staff training to prevent leaks or breaches. Regular checks strengthen defenses, limiting unauthorized access or alteration of personal data. By proactively identifying vulnerabilities, organizations uphold user trust and meet PIPL’s security standards.
Sensitive info, such as biometrics, and minors’ data require stricter safeguards and additional consent steps. This prevents misuse of highly personal details and protects vulnerable groups. Prioritizing safety for these categories demonstrates deeper respect for privacy and helps avoid severe violations.
People have the power to access, correct, delete, or transfer their personal data. They can also object to certain uses, including direct marketing or automated decisions. Respecting these requests shows commitment to privacy and helps maintain public confidence in data processing practices.
Under the PIPL, organizations handling sensitive data or minors’ information must:
Sensitive or minors’ data requires extra care, reflecting the heightened risks and vulnerabilities associated with these types of personal information.
View Options Again
Only store such data using overseas servers
Apply stronger safeguards and obtain additional consent
Share it freely once collected
Avoid telling users how it’s used
Assess and Manage Cross-Border Transfers
Under the PIPL, organizations that move personal data abroad must ensure the receiving entity meets security standards or legal requirements. This prevents potential misuse and maintains consistent privacy protections beyond China’s borders.
Appoint a Data Protection Officer (When Required)
If an entity processes large volumes of data or handles high-risk information, it may need a dedicated officer to oversee compliance. This role helps shape privacy policies, train staff, and coordinate with regulators, reinforcing accountability under the PIPL.
Which statement best describes the role of a Data Protection Officer (DPO)?
A DPO is responsible for ensuring that organizations meet PIPL requirements, including policy development, risk assessments, and acting as a liaison with relevant authorities.
View Options Again
They conduct market research and handle customer service requests
They have no responsibilities once data is collected
They oversee privacy compliance, train staff, and coordinate with regulators
They only manage financial transactions and budgeting
Data Security Requirements
Under PIPL, entities must adopt proper measures to safeguard personal data against leaks, unauthorized access, or loss. Steps can include regular training, access controls, and secure storage to reduce data breaches.
Consequences of Non-Compliance
Non-compliance can lead to severe penalties. Organizations may face fines up to ¥50 million or 5% of their annual revenue, whichever is higher. Additionally, responsible individuals, such as executives or data protection officers, can be fined up to ¥1 million and may face imprisonment for up to seven years.
Wrapping Up
By embedding PIPL principles into daily operations, organizations nurture trust, protect individual rights, and inspire a future where data privacy and innovation thrive together, benefiting both businesses and society.
