The Isle of Man Data Protection Act is designed to balance the legitimate needs of businesses and organisations to process personal information with an individual’s right to privacy. The Act is based upon the United Kingdom Data Protection Act 1998 and is drawn up to be compliant with the EC Data Protection Directive 95/46/EC.
The European Commission made a formal decision on 28th April 2004 recognising the Isle of Man as a jurisdiction with an adequate level of protection for personal data. In addition, the Council of Europe Convention 108 relating to the protection of individuals with regard to automatic processing of personal data has applied to the Isle of Man since 21 January 1993.
