International and comparative legal study on Big Data external link

van der Sloot, B. & Schendel, S. van
2016

Abstract

Working Paper 20 was written as part of the project ‘Big Data, Privacy and Security’, undertaken by the Netherlands Scientific Council for Government Policy (wrr) to investigate the consequences of the use of Big Data in the domain of security. This background study, entitled International and Comparative Legal Study on Big Data, was written by Bart van der Sloot and Sacha van Schendel. Many countries experiment with Big Data processes, which are almost by definition transnational. The first part of the study is a quick scan of the Big Data policies, legislation and regulations in Australia, Brazil, China, France, Germany, India, Israel, Japan, South-Africa, the United Kingdom and the United States. The second part presents the findings of a survey among Data Protection Authorities (dpas) in Europe. Both parts of the study focus on the relations between Big Data, security and privacy.

The Practical and Theoretical Problems with ‘Balancing’: Delfi, Coty and the Redundancy of the Human Rights Framework external link

Maastricht Journal of European and Comparative Law, num: 3, pp: 439-459., 2016

Abstract

In the realm of privacy and data protection – as in the fundamental rights framework in general – balancing has become the standard approach for dealing with legal disputes. It comes, however, with a number of practical and theoretical problems. Th is article analyses those problems and compares the method of balancing with the original approach of most human rights frameworks, such as the European Convention on Human Rights. It does so by analysing two cases in detail: the European Court of Human Right’s case Delfi v. Estonia and the Court of Justice of the EU’s judgment Coty v. Stadtsparkasse. From this analysis, it follows that the concept of balancing signals a shift away from the deontological and towards a utilitarian understanding of fundamental rights. Th is is not only of theoretical importance, as it could also mean that in time, human rights frameworks as such might become redundant.

Oneerlijke handelspraktijken: alternatief voor privacyhandhaving external link

Mediaforum, num: 4, pp: 102-109., 2016

Abstract

Privacyhandhaving vindt in Europa vrijwel uitsluitend plaats door nationale privacytoezichthouders. Zij passen primair sectorspecifieke regulering toe gebaseerd op de Europese Privacyrichtlijn.2 De verantwoordelijkheid ligt primair bij de onafhankelijke nationale privacytoezichthouders. In de Verenigde Staten wordt op federaal niveau privacy vooral gehandhaafd door de Federal Trade Commission op basis van algemene regels inzake misleidende en oneerlijke handelspraktijken. In dit artikel wordt het Amerikaanse systeem besproken en naast de Europese kaders gezet. Hieruit blijkt dat ook in Europa de regels over handelspraktijken kunnen worden ingezet voor privacyhandhaving. Er zijn goede argumenten om dit ook te doen: veel fricties betreffen het op markt/consumenten-gericht gebruik van persoonsgegevens. Het ligt dan voor de hand om deze fricties dan ook binnen markt/consument kaders aan de orde te stellen.
