ABSTRACT. According to the legislation, personal data is information or a set of information about a natural person who is identified or can be specifically identified. Technological progress creates an ever-widening range of needs and opportunities for society, from business to politics. In recent years, the collection and processing of personal data has been increasingly used in all spheres of human life. The rapid development of information technologies requires the use of personal data not only for work, but also for everyday life, private life, medicine, etc. There are questions about the violation of human rights. Therefore, the creation of reliable protection of personal data against illegal use is relevant for society.

Creating an appropriate level of personal data protection system is one of the important tasks of Ukraine in the international space. Improving the existing system of personal data protection is a priority direction for the construction of state and legal regulation of the protection of the rights and freedoms of society, as well as integration into international and European standards. Confidentiality of personal data is protected by the Constitution of Ukraine. According to the legislation of Ukraine, enterprises, institutions, private companies, banks and others have the right to process personal data of consumers, at the same time they are obliged to protect this data and are responsible for violations of their confidentiality.
