    There is an ambivalence about the right to personal data protection: On the one hand it is enshrined not only in the German constitutional tradition, but also listed in Art. 8 of the EU-Charter of Fundamental Rights. On the other hand it remains unclear what the right to personal data protection is about and what it protects. A property like right to control the circulation of personal information seems na\u00efve in our interconnected social and technological reality, in which information is disseminated at all levels. The property conception of the right to informational self-determination – as the right to personal data protection is called in the German constitutional law – is now also rejected by the German Federal Constitutional Court, who ones coined it in property right like terms. But if it is not a property right, what kind of right is it? The thesis of the projekct wants to explore is whether the right to personal data protection is a specific right at all, but must rather be understood as reinforcing other liberty interests \u2013 such as privacy, free speech or freedom of assembly \u2013 that might be threatened by the collection and storage of personal data. In this perspective personal data protection is not a fundamental right of its own, it is rather a systematic modification of potentially every other fundamental right that could be harmed by the use of personal data.”<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\t<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
