Liberia's Telecommunications Act of 2007 requires a telecommunications service provider to operate its network with due regard for customer privacy, and bars it from collecting, using, maintaining, or disclosing customer information or communications except as permitted or required by law or with the customer's consent. The Act requires a provider to identify the purpose of any collection of customer information at or before collection and bars using it for an undisclosed purpose.
It further requires a provider to protect customer information and communications with security safeguards appropriate to their sensitivity. The Act leaves a government authority's access to otherwise confidential customer information or communications governed separately by its national-security, public-emergency, and traffic-interception provisions.
