In the contemporary information society, organisations increasingly rely on the collection and analysis of large-scale data (popularly called ‘big data’) to make decisions. These processes, which take place largely beyond the individual’s knowledge, produce a cascade of effects that go beyond privacy and data protection. This work acknowledges the importance of the rights to privacy and data protection. By conceptualising big data as a process that consists of the acquisition and analysis of (personal) data and the application of the outcomes thereof, it finds that the potential consequences may also be particularly severe for personal autonomy, freedom of expression and non-discrimination. What’s in this book: Among the issues raised in the analysis are such vital elements as the following: what is meant by ‘big data’; ‘privacy’ according to the European Court of Human Rights and the Court of Justice of the European Union; what the European Union legal framework on privacy and data protection consists of and how it functions in the light of big data; what companies, governments and other organisations are permitted to do with big data under the current regulatory framework; the central importance of personal autonomy; circumstances that influence whether or not the right to privacy is triggered; big data’s possible impact on democracy through, inter alia, potentially limiting freedom of expression; how governmental or corporate surveillance chills the receiver’s gathering of information and ideas; selective offering of choices or information, or manipulation of people’s ideas; procedural aspects that influence the extrapolation of normative concepts of privacy and data protection; and how discrimination occurs in big data. This book foregrounds critical scrutiny of commercial uses of big data – its scale, limited capacity for independent oversight and the expected prevalence of interference with individuals’ rights. The author’s conclusions explore possible legal alternatives to mitigate the negative impact of big data, using legal instruments, case law and legal academic literature in her analysis. 000041757 650_0 $$aData protection$$xLaw and legislation$$zEuropean Union countries 000041757 650_0 $$aRight of privacy$$zEuropean Union countries 000041757 650_0 $$aBig data$$zEuropean Union countries 000041757 85641 $$uhttp://www.kluweriplaw.com/book-toc?title=Protecting%20Individuals%20Against%20the%20Negative%20Impact%20of%20Big%20Data%3A%20Potential%20and%20Limitations%20of%20the%20Privacy%20and%20Data%20Protection%20Law%20Approach$$yView this resource 000041757 903__ $$aInformation Law Series 000041757 904__ $$aBook 000041757 980__ $$aBIB
