حماية البيانات الشخصية للمستهلك في العقد الإلكتروني

Abstract EN

This article addresses a very important issue in our current era which is protecting consumer's personal data in the electronic contract.

this is in view of the steady increase in abuse and the ease of doing so as a result of existing technological development.

therefore, the problem is what protection has been decided by the Algerian legislator for the personal data of the electronic consumer? we will therefore first deal with the electronic consumer’s personal data meaning then illustrate the established mechanisms for the legal protection of such data.

in conclusion, we have concluded that the Algerian legislator has singled out the issue of the right to respect for privacy with a special regulation, because it is closely linked to the human personality and dignity, especially in the age of informatics, the development of means of communication via the internet, and the subsequent emergence and prosperity of electronic commerce, which required the intervention of the legislator and the provision of legal protection, especially the weak party in it, namely the consumer.
