PRIVACY AND THE PROTECTION OF PERSONAL DATA

Course Description

Technological developments have facilitated the breach of privacy and personal data. Therefore, it’s of great importance to establish a modern data protection law for the protection of personal data. Identification and limitation of the basic gathering purposes of personal data is essential and it is necessary to prevent the use of information stored in the databases for other purposes. Subjecting the processing of personal data to certain rules, protects fundamental rights and freedoms too. Within this scope the concept of personal data, the problem of the nature and the protection of personal data are examined in the light of the Protection of Personal Data Act (Law No. 6698), the decisions of Constitutional Court, ECHR and the Court of Justice of the European Union.
