Project Abstract

With regards to controversial of a topic data collection is nowadays due to a multitude of reasons.

Some that would help you, yet some aim to give leeway to collectors if they maintain security on data. Despite being something, some may view as so minuet has such a long list of rules to follow, rewards to gain from and controversies to cause. Data regulation is something that will be explained in sections, legal. Technological, financial. Many to go through, yet this paper will always try to be understandable to anyone unfamiliar of the concept.
