Description:

Interpreting the 21st century, in which we live, from the perspective of world civilization, scientific literature describes it as a period of transition from one socio-cultural paradigm to another. Against this backdrop, personal data and its protection are becoming an important issue. An analysis of international acts shows that at present the main act regulating issues of personal data protection is the General Data Protection Regulation. It is no secret that today's increasingly widespread use of technology in many areas of everyday life and various professional activities creates the basis for the easy collection of personal data and expands the possibilities for its use in ways that undermine individual rights. For this reason, the protection of personal data has become an important element of human rights and freedoms and constitutional control of countries. Thus, the article examines the importance of constitutional supervision in the protection of both human rights and personal data.
