  Data localization / data residency laws that mandate retention of personal data or a copy thereof in the local jurisdiction (include whether copies or the original data may also be stored outside of the jurisdiction):

GR 71 classifies electronic system operators into two categories, i.e., public electronic system operators (e.g., government institutions and their appointed parties) and private electronic system operators (e.g., private companies).

Only public electronic system operators must process and store personal data exclusively in Indonesia. In general, private electronic system operators can process and store personal data offshore provided that they maintain the effectiveness of legal enforcement and monitoring in Indonesia (e.g., by providing access to data if there is a valid request from government authorities or legal enforcers). However, if the private electronic system operators are bound by sectoral regulations (e.g., financial services sector), they may be required to process and store personal data in Indonesia only.
