Liberia's Telecommunications Act of 2007 makes a telecommunications service provider responsible for customer information and customer communications in its own custody or control or in that of its agents.
The Act requires a service provider to operate its telecommunications network with due regard for the privacy of its customers, and bars it from collecting, using, maintaining, or disclosing customer information or customer communications except as permitted or required by law or with the customer's consent. It requires a service provider to identify the purposes for which customer information is collected at or before collection, and bars using customer information for an undisclosed purpose.
It requires a service provider to keep customers' information accurate, complete, and up to date for the purposes it is used for. It requires a service provider to protect customer information and customer communications with security safeguards appropriate to their sensitivity. It leaves a government authority's access to otherwise confidential customer information or communications governed separately by the Act's national security, public emergency, and traffic interception provisions.
