INTERNATIONAL LEGAL BASICS OF PROVIDING OF THE RIGHT TO PRIVACY IN THE CONTEXT OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF DIGITAL TECHNOLOGIES

Abstract

At present, it is almost impossible to imagine the world without actively using the results of scientific and technological progress. The exploration of outer space by mankind led to the development and use of digital technologies. At the same time, the rapid pace of the development of digital technologies carries the success of the state's progress on the world stage, and makes the rights of its citizens even more vulnerable. Practice has shown that such processes necessarily require legal regulation - both at the level of international standards, and within the framework of national legislations. And it is vitally important that a person, his rights and freedoms are at the forefront. Realizing the urgency of this problem, the international community within the UN developed international instruments to ensure and protect the right to privacy, and also provided the participating States with specific guidelines for developing their own national and legal norms in this field. Unfortunately, in world practice there are examples when the era of digital technologies negatively affected the observance of human rights: there was a leak of personal data. Such cases have shown the imperfection of the domestic legislations of countries that are not keeping pace with the rapid pace of development of space activities in general, and digital technologies in particular. And in this connection, in a timely and justified manner, the Concept of the Legal Policy of the Republic of Kazakhstan for the period from 2010 to 2020 laid the course for continuing work to bring national legislation in line with international obligations and international standards, taking into account domestic needs and development priorities of the country. A clear understanding of the content of the right to privacy, knowledge of the specifics of the development of digital technologies, the pooling of efforts in the common deal should become the basis of the correct approach of states and the world community as a whole to solving the indicated problems.
