Abstract

The right to personal privacy is a fundamental human right that protects individuals from unauthorized intrusions into their private lives and personal data. In modern public governance, this right plays a critical role in ensuring the security, freedom, and dignity of citizens. Public institutions are responsible for creating and implementing legal frameworks that protect personal privacy while balancing the need for public safety and order. These institutions must develop effective legal and institutional mechanisms to safeguard the right to personal privacy for all citizens.
The report explores the concept of personal privacy, its significance in contemporary society, and the role of public institutions in protecting this right. It highlights the importance of legislation, particularly the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in the European Union, which establishes strict guidelines for the collection, storage, and processing of personal data by public institutions. Additionally, it discusses the European Convention on Human Rights, which guarantees protection from unlawful intrusions into private life.
Public institutions must establish mechanisms for ensuring personal privacy, such as independent bodies like data protection commissions or ombudsmen, which monitor the actions of public authorities and offer citizens a means of redress. Furthermore, the report addresses the limitations on personal privacy in exceptional circumstances, such as national security or criminal investigations, emphasizing that any restriction must be proportionate, legal, and subject to judicial oversight.
In conclusion, the right to personal privacy is essential to a functioning democracy, and public institutions play a key role in its protection. Effective legislation, independent oversight, and a balanced approach are necessary to ensure that individuals' rights are upheld while meeting the needs of public safety and order.
