Sharenting and children's data protection: legal aspects of an interdisciplinary phenomenon

Abstract

The paper sets out to analyse the legal implications of the phenomenon of ‘sharenting’. Starting from an interdisciplinary perspective of description of the phenomenology of the issue, it then comes to an in-depth examination of the legal profiles concerning the protection of personal data and the protection of the fundamental rights of minors. The current state of the art of the regulatory framework on ‘sharenting’ in Italy and France is then discussed, followed by some considerations on the relationship between facts and regulation.
