Abstract:Data localizationregimes mandate the physical storageof data within national territoryand restrict its cross-border free flowtoensure absolutedatasecurity.However,withtherapid developmentof theglobal digital economy,the inherenttension between data localizationand cros-border data flows has become prominent.Strictly restrictiveapproachestodatalocalizationareincreasinglybecomingobsolete,whilerule-orientedandtechnology-assisted institutionaldesigns arereshapingdatalocalizationregimes.These emerging frameworksseek toachievearelative balance thatreconciles theobjectiveofcontrollabledata securityand free datafows.Inthiscontext,datalocalization is shifting from static control focused on“where data is located”to dynamic governance centered on“how data is protected”. Through the coordination of technical safeguards and certification mechanisms,and enhanced interaction between internationalanddomestic legalregimes,data localization is no longertheantithesisofcross-borderdatafows.Instead, it is evolving into an institutional nexus that bridges the freedomand securityofcros-borderdata movement.Asa major digital economy,China should actively promote the transformation of its data governance framework-moving from rigid localization towardsa new paradigm grounded in securityand trust.It must prudentlybalance the principle of data sovereignty while exploring the extrateritorial applicationof datalocalizationregimesand ensuring rule interoperability. Sucheffortsare essential tounleashing the valueofdataand fostering sustainable economicandsocialdevelopment.
