Mongolians to be alerted when their personal data is used

> For example, if a Mongolian makes an application to the tax authority, he will get a notification through an electronic government services app that the authority is checking his data when processing the application. If he does not get this alert, he can file a complaint through the app, called e-Mongolia, to a centre that comes under the Mongolian prime minister’s office. For healthcare, if a doctor checks a patient’s health records, the patient will be notified on the app about this. It tells him which hospital and doctor were involved, and the time this check was done, among other things.

> Mongolia’s Parliament passed the Law on Personal Data Protection in December last year and it took effect in May. It is said to be more stringent than the previous legislation when it comes to personal data. According to Ministry of Digital Development and Communications, in future, the government will develop a system in which citizens can give approval for the use of their data. If they refuse, their data cannot be accessed.

Is there any other country that does this?
