未成年人个人信息保护中监护人同意制度的完善——基于我国36款APP未成年人个人信息监护人同意机制的分析

Minors’Personal Information—An Analysis on the Consent Mechanism of Guardians of Personal Information of Minors Based on Thirty-six APPs in China

监护人同意制度对大数据背景下未成年人的个人信息保护具有重要意义.梳理当前我国未成年人个人信息保护中监护人同意的相关规范,可以发现现有制度在法规层面表现出衔接不够紧密、缺乏后续验证指引以及法律责任不够明确等问题;进一步对比分析国内36款APP中未成年人的专项隐私政策,也同样存在隐私政策虚化、同意机制操作方式模糊以及后续验证方案欠缺等不足.为此,要考虑明确国家机关的主体地位、细化监护人同意的验证方式以及形成公私兼备的规制体系,使监护人同意制度日趋完善,共同助力构建良好的未成年网络环境.

The guardian consent system is of great significance to the protection of minors’personal information under the background of big data.Combing the relevant norms of guardian consent in the protection of minors’personal information in China,this survey summarizes problems at the regulatory level such as loose connection of the existing systems,lack of follow-up verification guidelines,and unclear legal responsibilities.Through further comparative analysis on the special privacy policies of minors in thirty-six APPs in China,this research shows that there are also some shortcomings such as the virtualization of privacy policies,the ambiguity of the operating mode of the consent mechanism,and the lack of follow-up verification schemes.Therefore,it is necessary to clarify the dominant position of state organs,to refine the verification methods of guardian consent,and to form a public-private regulatory system,so that the guardian consent system is becoming more and more perfect,and jointly help build a good network environment for minors.
