Personal information:

The legislation of the Russian Federation in the field of the personal data, taking into account the actions spent on perfection and harmonization of its provisions, almost in full repeats the basic provisions of the above-stated international acts. Thus it is necessary to bear in mind that not all public relations, but only the most socially significant ones demanding influence and protection from the state get to sphere of legal regulation. In this regard, normative legal acts regulating the relevant spheres of social relations should be expedient, have a certain purpose, justifying the state's intervention in this area of relations.Meanwhile, significant changes are constantly taking place in the legislation on personal data, which does not fully comply with the norms of international law and foreign experience, as well as information, socio-economic and cultural realities of Russian society. The practice of its application, which is currently contradictory and inconsistent, is still being formed.
