Legal Update: Cyber & Information Technology – December 2016 (Hebrew)

The Israel Internet Association recently published a report on the protection of children’s privacy on the internet (“Report”). The Report focuses both on the current legal status of the protection of children’s privacy (in Israel and other jurisdictions) and on recommendation for an amendment to the Israel’s Protection of Privacy Law, 5741-1981 (“Protection of Privacy Law”). The main recommendation included in the Report is to specifically recognize the unique characteristics of children’s right to privacy, and significantly restrict the different uses that can be made of personal information collected from children.
