, the review proposed only increased safeguards, such as for parties to publish a privacy policy and not target voters “based on sensitive information or traits” except for political opinions, membership of a political association, or a trade union.
The review called for new limits on targeted advertising, including to prohibit targeting to a child except where it is in their “best interests”, and to provide others with an “an unqualified right to opt-out” of targeted ads and their information being disclosed for direct marketing purposes. The review also proposes individual rights modelled on the European Union’s general data protection regulation including to: object to the collection, use or disclosure of personal information; request erasure of personal information; and to de-index online search results containing sensitive information, excessive detail or “inaccurate, out-of-date, incomplete, irrelevant, or misleading” information.
