Abstract

The Internet of Things as a new generation of connection and communication between intelligent objects through Internet is a concept that has recently entered the country's governance literature. Due to the possibility of identification and access to personal information through the analysis and combination of collected data, effective protection of personal data has been proposed as a must in the context of this technology. Iran's legal system lacks a law that is dedicated to the protection of citizens' personal data. Based on the descriptive analytical method, the current research has extracted the legislative patterns in the discussed field by examining all the laws and regulations of the legal systems of the European Union, China and theUSA and answered the question of which type of legislative model is desirable for the Iranian legal system. It seems that among the proposed approaches, a combination of models can be a suitable option for drafting the law.
