Regels inzake de bescherming van persoonsgegevens van Bonaire, Sint Eustatius en Saba (Wet bescherming persoonsgegevens BES)

This Dutch bill, titled the Wet bescherming persoonsgegevens BES (Personal Data Protection Act for the BES islands), would set out rules for how personal data is collected, used and protected on Bonaire, Sint Eustatius and Saba, the three Caribbean special municipalities of the Netherlands. It aims to give residents data protection comparable to that available in the European part of the Kingdom. Based on the title alone, the bill would establish a dedicated legal framework for these islands. The rules would primarily affect residents of the BES islands, along with government bodies and private organisations that process personal data there. Data controllers and processors on the islands would likely need to meet the new obligations. This summary is based on metadata only, not the full legislative text, so specific duties and exemptions are not described here.
