Draft Law
Information technologies have entered our lives and affect every person, every family.
At the same time, the risks have increased: cases where personal data falls into the hands of fraudsters have become more frequent and we see more citizen complaints.
The bills adopted introduce fines for firms that leak personal information of citizens.
They will account for up to 3% of revenue along with criminal liability for such actions.
For a violation committed for the first time, officials can be fined up to 2mn RUB, legal entities - up to 15mn but the amount of fines differs based on the scale of leaks.
