Abstract
Electronic data are divided into personal and non-personal data. Personal data is information that provides the basis for identifying real persons directly and indirectly. This type of information is always processed in information exchange networks. Privacy is the meeting point of protecting people's rights and processing their information by communication networks, and maintaining a balance in respect of privacy and managing a network will require processing under legal principles. The main question of this research is what are the principles governing the processing of personal data? In order to answer this question, the present research has started to study the regulations governing the legal system of the European Union and compared the results of its studies with the legal rules governing the legal system of Iran. In general, the principles governing the legal system of the European Union are placed in two general categories, the legal principle, the fairness and transparency of information processing, and the principle of limitation in information processing, which are explained in the first and second chapters of this research. In the conclusion part, the current research has tried to provide some policy recommendations to improve the implementation of these principles in Iran's legal system.
