Abstract

This study compares the regulatory frameworks of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Indonesia governing the online provision and sale of health-related technologies. In technology-driven healthcare, data privacy and the security of digital transactions are central concerns. Employing a normative juridical approach, the research analyses applicable legislation, regulatory instruments, and scholarly literature in both jurisdictions. The findings indicate that the UAE has developed a relatively robust and comprehensive framework, particularly in relation to data protection and the security of digital health infrastructure, supported by detailed and stringent rules. By contrast, Indonesia’s regulatory framework remains less effective in practice, hindered by limited public awareness of data security, uneven enforcement, and implementation challenges at the local and regional levels. The study underscores the key differences between the two systems and highlights the need, especially in Indonesia, for clearer, more enforceable rules on health-related online transactions and stronger safeguards for personal health data.

Abstract

This study provides a comparative legal analysis of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Indonesia regarding the regulation of digital health technologies, particularly electronic medical records (EMR) and artificial intelligence (AI). It examines core legal dimensions including data security, patient consent, monitoring mechanisms, and data ownership. Although both countries have adopted ambitious digital health strategies, the UAE has developed a more comprehensive and integrated regulatory framework through Federal Law No. 2 of 2019 on the Use of Information and Communication Technology in Health Fields and the Personal Data Protection Law No. 45 of 2021. These instruments ensure stricter data protection, structured access control, encryption standards, and regular audit mechanisms. In contrast, Indonesia, despite the enactment of Minister of Health Regulation No. 24 of 2022 and Law No. 27 of 2022 on Personal Data Protection, still faces challenges in enforcement, interoperability, and accountability. The findings highlight the need for Indonesia to strengthen its legal and institutional infrastructure to ensure compliance, enhance data privacy, and promote patient trust in digital health systems. Drawing lessons from the UAE experience, the study proposes policy reforms aimed at aligning Indonesia’s legal framework with international standards and fostering a secure, ethical, and innovation-oriented digital health environment.

Abstract

This study examines how the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Indonesia regulate consumer protection within the expanding e-commerce environment, addressing the central question of how each jurisdiction safeguards consumer rights in a digital marketplace characterized by increasing online transactions and rising risks of fraud. Positioned within a comparative legal framework, the research evaluates the extent to which both countries’ regulations respond to modern digitaleconomy challenges. Using a normative and comparative approach, the paper analyses key statutory instruments, including the UAE’s Federal Law No. 15 of 2020 and Decree-Law No. 14 of 2023, alongside Indonesia’s Consumer Protection Law No. 8 of 1999, the ITE Law (2008), and Trade Law No. 7 of 2014. The analysis focuses on product information transparency, complaint mechanisms, personal data protection, and the regulation of cross-border electronic transactions. The findings show that the UAE provides stronger institutional safeguards, clearer digital-era obligations for suppliers, and a more effective enforcement structure. Indonesia, meanwhile, faces fragmented regulations and weaker supervisory mechanisms. The study concludes that Indonesia may strengthen its framework by adopting elements of the UAE model while adapting them to national principles such as Pancasila, thereby enhancing consumer trust and supporting sustainable digital economic growth. Studi ini mengkaji bagaimana Uni Emirat Arab (UEA) dan Indonesia mengatur perlindungan konsumen dalam lingkungan e-commerce yang terus berkembang, dengan fokus pada pertanyaan utama mengenai bagaimana masingmasing yurisdiksi melindungi hak konsumen di pasar digital yang ditandai oleh peningkatan transaksi online dan risiko penipuan yang semakin tinggi. Dalam kerangka hukum komparatif, penelitian ini mengevaluasi sejauh mana regulasi kedua negara merespons tantangan ekonomi digital modern. Menggunakan pendekatan normatif dan komparatif, makalah ini menganalisis instrumen hukum utama, termasuk Undang-Undang Federal UEA No. 15 Tahun 2020 dan Peraturan Pemerintah No. 14 Tahun 2023, serta Undang-Undang Perlindungan Konsumen Indonesia No. 8 Tahun 1999, Undang-Undang ITE (2008), dan Undang-Undang Perdagangan No. 7 Tahun 2014. Analisis ini berfokus pada transparansi informasi produk, mekanisme pengaduan, perlindungan data pribadi, dan regulasi transaksi elektronik lintas batas. Temuan menunjukkan bahwa UEA menyediakan jaminan institusional yang lebih kuat, kewajiban yang lebih jelas bagi penyedia layanan di era digital, dan struktur penegakan hukum yang lebih efektif. Indonesia, di sisi lain, menghadapi regulasi yang terfragmentasi dan mekanisme pengawasan yang lebih lemah. Studi ini menyimpulkan bahwa Indonesia dapat memperkuat kerangka kerjanya dengan mengadopsi unsur-unsur model UAE sambil menyesuaikannya dengan prinsip-prinsip nasional seperti Pancasila, sehingga meningkatkan kepercayaan konsumen dan mendukung pertumbuhan ekonomi digital yang berkelanjutan.
