Article 127 of the Civil Code: Where the law has provisions on the protection of data and online virtual assets, follow those provisions.
With the popularization of the Internet and the acceleration of digitalization, data and online virtual property have become an indispensable part of people's daily lives. However, due to the lack of clear legal protection, the security and rights of data and cyber virtual property have been of great concern. Therefore, the law has provisions on the protection of data and network virtual property, which is of great significance for safeguarding individual rights and interests and promoting the healthy development of the Internet.
First, the law should clarify the ownership of data and online virtual property. In the age of the Internet, the collection, use, transfer, and transaction of personal data and online virtual property involves multiple stakeholders, so the rights and obligations of all parties need to be clarified. Individual users shall have ownership of their data and virtual property, while the platform shall respect the rights and interests of users, strictly abide by relevant laws and regulations, and ensure the security of user data and virtual property.
Second, the law should clarify the definition and scope of data and cyber virtual property. In the age of the Internet, data and virtual property come in a variety of forms, including but not limited to email addresses, social accounts, characters and equipment in online games, etc. The law needs to clarify the scope and definition of these assets in order to better protect the legitimate rights and interests of individuals and businesses.
Third, the law should strengthen the protection of data and online virtual assets. For illegal acts such as data leakage and virtual property theft, the law should increase the punishment and increase the cost of violating the law, so as to have a deterrent effect. At the same time, the supervision of Internet platforms should be strengthened, and platforms should be urged to strengthen data security protection measures to ensure the safety and reliability of user data and virtual property.
Fourth, the law should also provide for the transaction of data and online virtual property. With the development of the Internet, the transactions of data and virtual property are becoming more and more frequent, but these transactions often lack effective legal supervision. The law needs to regulate these transactions to ensure the legitimacy and fairness of the transactions.
Fifth, the law should guide all sectors of society to pay attention to the protection of data and online virtual property. In addition to the responsibilities of the platform and the platform, users themselves should also strengthen their security awareness and not easily disclose personal information and virtual property. At the same time, all sectors of society should strengthen publicity and education on the protection of data and online virtual assets, and improve the awareness and ability of the whole society to protect them.
In short, the protection of data and online virtual property is an important guarantee for safeguarding individual rights and interests and promoting the healthy development of the Internet. In order to better protect data and cyber virtual property, the law needs to be more clear and specific. Only under the protection of the law can we ensure that the legitimate rights and interests of individuals and enterprises are not infringed upon, and can we better protect the security of users' data and network virtual property.
