Clarity of Information and Consumer Consent in the Usage of Personal Data by E-Commerce Platform
Abstract
The widespread use of e-commerce platforms in the era of the industrial revolution 4.0 cannot be separated from concerns about the use of personal data by these platforms without the consent of consumers. This can lead to misuse of consumers' personal data and causing losses. For this reason, regulations that protect consumer personal data from this are needed. In this regard, the existing legal instruments in Indonesia to protect personal data in general has been regulated in Law Number 27 of 2022 concerning Personal Data Protection and Government Regulation of the Republic of Indonesia Number 80 of 2019 concerning Trading Through Electronic Systems (PP 80/2019). The problem is, these regulations do not provide an affirmation regarding the terms and conditions of the format that must be made by e-commerce platforms, thus that they are often made with lengthy and complex legal language which results in the impression that consumers agree to the use of personal data, even though they do not know it. Regarding this problem, the authors provide recommendations for adding provisions to PP 80/2019 which contains a brief, clear, and simple format of terms and conditions that must be made by e-commerce platforms in relation to the use of personal data.
