\"\" New Delhi: Top telcos including Bharti Airtel<\/a>, Idea Cellular<\/a> and Reliance Jio<\/a>, have argued for 'equally and uniformally' bringing in over-the-top (OTT) apps like Whatsapp<\/a>, Viber<\/a> and others, under the ambit of data protection rules, the same way that carriers were adhering to under present license norms.

\nHowever, proponents of data protection and consumer privacy, such as the Internet Freedom Foundation, batted for a comprehensive legislation in the matter, even as it called out present data protection requirements as “inadequate and completely deficient” given the large amounts of data transmitted through mobile phones.

\n“There is an imminent need to bring the OTT players and other unlicensed service providers collecting consumer data under the data privacy principles umbrella,” it said to the sector regulator that began the consultation in August this year to assess the adequate protection of data rights of mobile phone and to identify key issues pertaining to data protection in the telecom sector.

\n
\nMarket leader Bharti Airtel applied the same argument to content providers, device manufacturers, browsers, operating system providers that also function in the internet ecosystem, that deal with same personal data but are governed by different rules and regulations.
\n
\n“In this sector, customer privacy has three significant sources of vulnerabilities -- device, network and content providers -- and any law that limits its scope to telecom service providers alone will not be able to holistically address the issue of protection and privacy of personal data,” Bharti Airtel said.
\n
\n“For example, while TSPs (telecom service providers) are not allowed to send the personal data of their customers outside India, there is no such prohibition\/restriction on other players,” it said in a written response to Trai.

\nSeeking a regulatory parity, Idea said it is only appropriate that OTT players be “urgently” brought under a suitable framework that imposes same obligations applicable to telecom firms in respect of data security, protection, privacy and confidentiality.

\nIdea has also underscored the need for an overarching framework that comprehensively addresses the definition of personal data and its protection mechanism, and goes beyond the operators to include all entities in the digital ecosystem involved in collection, processing and usage of personal data.

\nThe views were similar to that of Reliance Jio, which underlined the need for bringing “OTT players and other unlicensed service providers, collecting consumer data” under the principles of data privacy.
\n
\n“The Authority should put in place measures to curb cross-border transfer of data by mandating localized hosting of data,” the new entrant said, on the grounds that national security cannot be compromised.

\nWhile having data stored in other jurisdictions can certainly pose a challenge to law enforcement investigations in some cases, the free flow of information increases the efficiency of internet traffic delivery, lowers costs, reduces barriers to innovation, and ensures that users can access the full diversity of the open internet, it argued.

电信公司要求把奥特在相同的规则下数据保护和安全

顶级电信运营商包括Bharti Airtel Jio细胞和依赖,有主张“同样的”引入过多的(OTT)应用程序像Whatsapp,推出和其他人来说,数据保护的范围下的规则

新德里:顶级电信运营商包括Bharti附近的旅馆,知道细胞依赖Jio,主张“同样的”引入过多的(OTT)应用程序Whatsapp,推出和其他人,在数据保护规则的范围,以同样的方式,航空公司坚持在目前许可规范。

然而,数据保护和消费者隐私的支持者,比如互联网自由基金会拍全面立法,即使它喊目前数据保护要求“不充分、完全缺乏“考虑到大量的数据通过手机传播。

运营商也需要传播等措施强制local-hosting的数据,这将防止运动印度边界以外的客户个人资料。互联网公司然而反对采取这种措施作为此类举措可能会威胁到开放互联网的多样性,并可能被其他国家印度公司海外回报。

“监管框架,以确保数据隐私、数据安全和数据所有权是定义良好的电信服务提供商”穆克什Amabni-owned载体在其提交电信监管机构表示印度(火车)讨论文件的隐私,安全和数据的所有权。

“有迫在眉睫的需要把奥特球员和其他未经授权的服务提供商收集消费者数据在数据隐私原则的伞下,“它对行业监管机构说,今年8月开始咨询评估数据的足够的保护手机的权利和识别关键问题有关数据保护在电信部门。

主要航空公司主张,运营商不需要任何进一步的授权数据隐私和保护规范嵌入到执照是否有力。支持的行业身体COAI,他们传播相同的服务相同的规则的利益相关者包括奥特通信供应商提供类似的语音电话或消息传递服务的电信公司,和骑在运营商网络。

市场领导者Bharti Airtel应用相同的参数内容提供商,设备制造商,浏览器,操作系统提供商也在互联网生态系统功能,处理相同的个人资料,但都是由不同的规章制度。

“在这个行业,客户隐私有三个漏洞的重要来源——设备、网络和内容提供商,任何法律,限制其范围单独电信服务提供商将无法全面解决这个问题的保护个人数据和隐私,“Bharti Airtel说。

“例如,茶匙(电信服务提供商)不允许发送他们的客户在印度之外的个人数据,没有这样的禁止/限制其他球员,“火车在一份书面回应说。

寻求监管平价,想法只有适当说奥特球员是“紧急”得到一个合适的框架,实施相同的义务适用于电信企业的数据安全、保护、隐私和机密性。

想法也强调了需要一个总体框架,全面处理个人数据的定义和它的保护机制,并超越运营商包括所有数字生态系统中的实体参与收集、处理和使用个人资料。

信实Jio的观点相似,这强调了需要将“奥特球员和其他未经授权的服务提供商,收集消费者数据”下的数据隐私的原则。

“当局应采取措施来抑制跨境传输数据要求本地化托管的数据,“新进入者说,理由是不能损害国家安全。

开放的互联网的支持者主张一个基线数据保护法律作为国家政策优先考虑印度,但不同需要限制印度以外的运动数据。

“数据本地化策略,授权数据或引入新的国界限制数据便携性存在的一个主要威胁对互联网的发展和基于互联网的服务通过引入高成本和实际限制技术创新、开发、和使用,”加州Mozilla的代表说,制造商Firefox网络浏览器。

虽然有数据存储在其他司法管辖区当然可以构成挑战执法调查在某些情况下,信息的自由流动会增加网络流量交付的效率,降低成本,减少创新壁垒,并确保用户可以访问完整的开放网络的多样性,它认为。

进一步警告说,印度数据本地化策略可能会为其他国家会设立一个危险的例子,“这也希望印度公司将数据存储在他们的管辖边界,印度工业配料和限制数字印度和印度制造计划的效果。

互联网自由基金会、非营利组织由SaveTheInternet的成员。在竞选网络中立,寻求公共咨询和调查涉嫌违法和违宪行为”有关报道质量监测和服务提供者收集的数据在移动,在印度互联网和固定电话用户。

它还呼吁全面立法的原则9-judge长椅上判断(最高法院)隐私权,鉴于大量的个人数据是通过智能手机传播。
