In response to the widespread personal information violations in the catering industry, such as compulsory collection of users’ mobile phone numbers, inducing consumers to provide accurate location information and forcing consumers to subscribe their WeChat official accounts, the Shanghai Cyberspace Administration (SCA) and the Shanghai Municipal Administration for Market Regulation (SMAMR) carry out a special enforcement action to protect the rights and interests of personal information in the consumer sector under the supervision of the State Administration for Market Regulation (SAMR) for a period of six months, starting from June 16, 2023.<\/p>\n

SCA and SMAMR have then interviewed the people in charge of Starbucks, burger joint Shake Shack and simply thai Tiantai restaurant for \u201cexcessive collection of personal information\u201d and asked them to carry out self-examination and rectification.
