Tonga's Communications Act 2015, administered by the Tonga Communications Commission, includes provisions for privacy and confidentiality of communications. The Act addresses telecommunications service provider obligations for customer data protection, interception safeguards, and consumer protection. Tonga does not have standalone data protection legislation; the Communications Act provides the primary regulatory framework for privacy of electronic communications and customer information.
