- Abstract
Globalization and technology are rapidly evolving. Making things simpler is the availability of online loans, which are a result of technical advancements. Many provide more accessible and flexible borrowing terms and conditions than traditional financial institutions such as banks. However, breaches in the transmission of personal consumer data are common in some situations of online loans. In this issue, several of its clients have alleged that online loan providers have spread their data without their knowledge or consent. Personal data is disseminated by sending messages to all telephone contacts possessed by the borrower. The message comprises the borrower’s information as well as the amount of debt borrowed, and it alerts the person concerned about the borrower’s debt payments. To establish technical findings, this study adopted a legal method from the literature to examine online lending rules and synchronize key rules and regulations. Personal data protection laws and regulations, including those of POJK NO. 77/POJK.01/2016, letter an of article 26, require financial service providers to maintain the personal data of customers who utilize online loan application services. A lawsuit against this regulation under Section 1365 of the Civil Code to give legal certainty for consumer compensation is the overwhelming legal protection that customers who are victims of exploitation of their data by online credit activists may provide.
