Law on Personal Data, publicly available personal data
Law No. ZRU-547 (2 July 2019), Art. 29
A citation is an address, not a summary. The first part names the law; what follows narrows it to the exact section, article or paragraph.
In force since 1 October 2019.
A personal data rule binding public and private bodies.
As of 6 September 2026.
What it requires
- An app scraping personal data from a publicly accessible Uzbek source must still meet the Law on Personal Data's general lawful-basis and consent requirements unless the data qualifies as publicly available personal data under Art. 29, meaning data the subject has made freely accessible or that is not subject to a confidentiality requirement.

Drafted with AI from the cited sources under the direction of UnGovr staff. UnGovr holds editorial responsibility for this page.
Article 29 of the Law on Personal Data defines publicly available personal data as data access to which is free with the subject's consent or which is not subject to a confidentiality requirement.
The Act's general consent and lawful-basis duties, read elsewhere in the Act, are not stated to turn on how the operator collected the data, so a public Uzbek source's data reached by crawling or scraping falls within the same regime as data collected by any other means, unless it independently qualifies as publicly available personal data under Art. 29.
