    Los datos personales se gestionan y protegen estrictamente por tratarse de un asunto relacionado con los derechos humanos. Según la legislación de la Unión Europea (UE), el control de los datos personales es un derecho fundamental reconocido en el Convenio Europeo de Derechos Humanos (CEDH) y la Carta de los Derechos Fundamentales de la UE. A partir del análisis del contenido de la normativa de la UE sobre este tema, el artículo recomienda mejorar la legislación vietnamita. El artículo recomienda que la legislación vietnamita desarrolle normas sobre protección de datos personales con un lenguaje tecnológicamente neutro. Además, debería haber normas específicas que expliquen el término datos personales. Esto se debe a que los datos personales incluyen no solo la información que puede vincularse o asociarse con una persona en particular en el momento del tratamiento de los datos, sino también toda la información que puede vincularse o asociarse con esa persona durante el tratamiento futuro, posiblemente mediante medios tecnológicos que aún no se habían desarrollado en el momento en que se recopilaron o generaron los datos personales.

    Personal data is strictly managed and protected because it is a matter related to human rights. According to the European Union (EU) law, personal data control is a fundamental right recognized in the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) and the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights. Based on the analysis of the content of EU regulations on this issue, the article recommends improving Vietnamese law. The article recommends that Vietnamese law develops regulations on personal data protection in technology-neutral language. In addition, there should also be specific regulations explaining the term personal data. Accordingly, personal data includes not only information that can be linked or associated with a particular individual at the time the data are processed, but also all information that may be linked or associated with that individual during future processing, possibly by technological means that were not yet developed at the time the personal data were collected or generated.
