What Is Data Sovereignty?

The principle that data is subject to the laws of the country where it is collected or stored.

Data sovereignty refers to the idea that digital data is subject to the laws of the country in which it physically resides. This affects where companies (such as VPN providers) choose to host their infrastructure, since the host country's laws may permit or restrict government requests for access to data.
