South Korea has general laws and several special laws covering data protection and an individual’s privacy. South Korea's data protection regime is considered one of the strictest data protection regimes owing to its notification requirements, opt-in consent, extensive data subject rights, mandatory data breach notifications, and heavy sanctions in case of non-compliance.
South Korea's comprehensive central data protection law is the Personal Information Protection Act 2011 (the "PIPA"), which regulates the collection and processing of personal information. The PIPA was subsequently amended in 2020 and 2023. The amended PIPA came into effect on September 15, 2023. The amended Enforcement Decree of the PIPA, which provides detailed regulations on the amended PIPA provisions, also came into effect on the same date. The 2023 amendment includes the right to data portability, the right to question automated decision-making, updates to the privacy dispute resolution proceedings, and additional requirements for cross-border data transfers.
The PIPA applies to South Korean companies and companies established abroad that process personal information in South Korea.
Securiti enables organizations to comply with the South Korean PIPA regulations through AI-driven PI data discovery, DSR automation, documented accountability, enhanced visibility into data processing activities, and AI-driven process automation.
