Abstract

The Constitution of the Russian Federation enshrined one of the important postulates of the formation of a rule of law state and civil society - a person, his rights and freedoms are the highest value. As the need to keep your personal data protected has increased, the question arose of how this can be regulated. And the answer was found: to introduce such a legal category as the "right to be forgotten" and ensure its effective implementation. As the need to keep your personal data protected has increased, the question arose of how this can be regulated. And the answer was found: to introduce such a legal category as the "right to be forgotten" and ensure its effective implementation. The Russian Federation also did not stand aside from the processes mentioned above and was forced to take measures to protect the rights and freedoms of its citizens on the Internet. The authors of this article have made an attempt, taking into account the practice of the European Court, the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation, as well as other courts of both the Russian Federation and Foreign Countries, to indicate the main provisions for the implementation of the right to be forgotten, to determine what means and methods can be used for this. However, it is also necessary to take into account so as not to limit other human and civil rights.
