Protecting children’s informational privacy has never been more difficult. To what extent does it depend upon parental control and consent, and how is this factor incorporated into the law seeking to protect children’s informational privacy? This paper addresses these questions, considering the relevant jurisprudence of English courts, in particular under the tort of misuse of private information, and the relevant jurisprudence of the European Court of Human Rights under Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights. This paper argues that the jurisprudence of both courts’ informational privacy cases reveals a doctrine that prioritizes parental control and consent, above the harm of intrusion to the child. This risks laying a legal terrain that does not accommodate the protection and vindication of children’s informational privacy rights when they conflict with the wishes of, or are not actively protected by, that child’s parents. A version of this paper was presented at Trinity College, Dublin, in 2018. I am grateful to the organizers of this Conference, and to the participants for their stimulating discussion. A subsequent version of this paper was published in the Human Rights Law Review: J Gligorijevic "Children’s privacy: The Role of Parental Control and Consent" (2019) 19(2) Human Rights Law Review 201-229.

儿童隐私：家长控制和同意的作用

保护儿童的信息隐私从未如此困难。它在多大程度上取决于父母的控制和同意，以及如何将这一因素纳入寻求保护儿童信息隐私的法律？本文考虑了英国法院的相关判例，特别是滥用私人信息侵权的相关判例，以及欧洲人权法院根据《欧洲人权公约》第 8 条的相关判例，来解决这些问题。本文认为，两个法院的信息隐私案件的判例揭示了一种原则，即优先考虑父母的控制和同意，而不是侵犯儿童的危害。当儿童的信息隐私权与该儿童的父母的意愿相冲突或未受到该儿童父母的积极保护时，这可能会导致法律领域无法保护和维护儿童的信息隐私权。这篇论文的一个版本于 2018 年在都柏林三一学院发表。我感谢这次会议的组织者，感谢与会者的激发性讨论。本文的后续版本发表在《人权法评论》：J Gligorijevic“儿童隐私：家长控制和同意的作用”(2019) 19(2) 人权法评论 201-229。并感谢参与者的启发性讨论。本文的后续版本发表在《人权法评论》：J Gligorijevic“儿童隐私：家长控制和同意的作用”(2019) 19(2) 人权法评论 201-229。并感谢参与者的启发性讨论。本文的后续版本发表在《人权法评论》：J Gligorijevic“儿童隐私：家长控制和同意的作用”(2019) 19(2) 人权法评论 201-229。
