Summary/Abstract: Recently, the issues related to personal data protection have received significant public attention due to the ongoing debate concerning the future form of the EU data protection legislation. The rapid development of digital technologies not only brought the new category of personal data related to online activity, such as IP or e-mail addresses, but also revealed that the binding data privacy laws have been ineffective and inadequate for regulating virtual reality. With this paper the author aims to cover the analysis of personal data closely linked to the rise and development of the world-wide web as well as to discuss the initiated enforcement of the right to be forgotten, under which Internet users may at any time request the erasure of personal data concerning them and their online activity. Moreover, the author indicates the key executive measures regarding personal data protection.
