Shortly after the enactment of Law No. 27 of 2022 on Personal Data Protection (“PDP Law“) on 17 October 2022 (click here and here to read our previous client alerts on the PDP Law), the Indonesian Constitutional Court received two distinct constitutional review petitions concerning the PDP Law.
As discussed in our previous client alerts, there were ambiguities in the PDP Law, and we mentioned these ambiguities are likely to be clarified through the Law’s implementing regulations, when such regulations are issued. While the government has not issued any implementing regulations for the PDP Law, the Constitutional Court’s rulings clarified some provisions of the Law, namely on personal and household processing of personal data and limitation of data subjects’ rights, specifically with regards to national security and defence.
