This site is NOT legal advice, and using it creates no lawyer and client relationship. It is a set of findings, checked against published sources and dated, that may help software developers and other individuals. For a decision that matters, ask a qualified lawyer in the country concerned.

A privacy law can reach your software wherever you are, if your users are in its territory. These pages turn each law into questions you can ask of your own project. They are findings to help you start, not advice on your situation.
