ข้อมูลส่วนบุคคล

Explanation

ข้อมูลส่วนบุคคล is made from ข้อมูล, meaning information or data, and ส่วนบุคคล, meaning individual or personal. It typically covers names, addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, national ID numbers, photos, health information, financial information, and similar data. It is understandable in conversation, but it sounds official and is especially common in documents, terms of service, privacy policies, legal contexts, and business settings. Common verbs used with it include เก็บ “collect/store,” ใช้ “use,” เปิดเผย “disclose,” คุ้มครอง “protect,” and ลบ “delete.”

Usage

This word is commonly used in registration forms, online purchases, bank, hospital, school, and company documents, job application paperwork, app terms of service, and privacy policies. It often appears when talking about collecting, using, storing, disclosing, protecting, or getting consent for personal data.

Caution

Do not use it for personal stories or private life matters in general. เรื่องส่วนตัว is more natural for that meaning.
