Abstract
Several fundamental rights are inherently tied to human personality, including the right to one's name, the right to correspond through letters, the right to physical integrity, the moral rights of authors, and, notably for this discussion, the right to one's image, the right to honor, and the “right to confidentiality.” These rights may even hold constitutional significance, as the Constitutional Council asserts that they stem from the “protection of individual freedom.” Notably, laws that breach privacy in scenarios such as vehicle searches, tax investigations, or the publication of certain tax information have been ruled unconstitutional. In this chapter, the authors explore various techniques for safeguarding privacy, focusing specifically on fundamental techniques applicable in the medical sector, such as differential privacy, secure multiparty computation protocols, data anonymization, deidentification, and fingerprint privacy, among others.
