ABSTRACT
In law, personal data refers to any particulars concerning a particular individual. It can be sensitive in nature so needs extensive care and caution.

Many well-known documents like Treaty on the functioning of European Union and Charter of the Fundamental Rights of the European Union1 covers the concept of protectionism and the concept of data protection. In the European Union, the legal meaning of data protection is given under the Directive of 1995. India being one of the biggest IT service providers still does not provide the same respect to its citizens by the law makers as the European union does. It was only for the Indian Supreme Court to make data protection to be treated as a Fundamental Right in K.S. Puttaswamy V. Union of India2.
