Research On Personal Information Processing And Protection In Epidemic Prevention And Control

The widespread application of big data technology during the epidemic has made epidemic prevention and control more precise and efficient.Data support is needed to identify key groups and carry out key monitoring,analyze personnel activity trajectory and analyze risk degree in different regions,the government’s decision to respond to the epidemic is based on the mastery of the situation,at the same time,the disclosure of epidemic-related information can help people better understand the epidemic and the need for prevention and control measures,people take the initiative to take personal protection measures and are willing to cooperate with the implementation of relevant policies.The huge amount of data used for epidemic prevention and control is gathered from a large amount of personal information,which has undoubtedly played an important role,but at the same time,personal information faces security risks in the process of processing.It is urgent to strike a balance between handling personal information to help epidemic prevention and control and protecting personal information.This paper starts from defining the concepts of epidemic prevention and control and personal information,defining epidemic prevention and control from the perspective of meaning and nature,the definition of personal information is based on the concept,clarifying the classification of personal information,clarifying the relationship between personal information and privacy,then it focuses on the personal information processing in epidemic prevention and control,and then introduce the constitutional basis of personal information processing and protection in epidemic prevention and control.Then introduce the current situation and problems of personal information processing and protection in epidemic prevention and control,the current situation includes the key role of personal information processing and the legal characteristics of personal information processing in epidemic prevention and control;the problems are mainly manifested as improper collection of personal information,improper disclosure of personal information and hidden dangers in personal information handling after the epidemic.Furthermore,based on the analysis of the interests of all stakeholders,the conflict between personal information processing and protection in epidemic prevention and control is studied,it’s fundamental is the conflict between legal values,specifically manifested in the conflict between public health security,public right to know and personal information interests,in order to achieve the best balance of interests of all parties,it is further proposed to measure interests on the basis of clarifying the measurement background and relevant legal system factors.Finally,suggestions on balancing personal information processing and protection in epidemic prevention and control are put forward from two aspects of basic principles and specific system construction,at the level of legal principles,the priority principle of personal information processing is put forward considering the background of epidemic prevention and control,and the basic principles of regulating personal information processing are also put forward;at the level of specific system construction,it proposes to standardize the collection of personal information by strictly restricting the subject of information collection,limiting the scope of information collection and improving the way of information collection,to optimize the disclosure of personal information by de-identifying personal information and establishing classified personal information disclosure mechanism,to standardize the post-epidemic personal information processing by applying the right to erasure and strengthening the protection of personal information in the upgrade of COVID-tracking code.
