Abstract
The advent of the era of big data is an irreversible trend. With the development of network technology, personal information has become closely integrated with various social fields, encompassing technologies for information capture, transmission, and storage. Daily applications, access to places, and face recognition technology play an indispensable role in various aspects. However, while enjoying the convenience brought by information technology, the protection of personal information also faces inevitable challenges. Informed consent rules are studied to address the issues that arise in the information society, such as the lack of sufficient information for individuals, unreasonable consent practices, and unclear handling of personal information dynamics. In order to address these shortcomings, the notification method in informed consent rules needs to be improved to effectively protect personal information. This will allow for better protection of personal information security while still utilizing the convenience provided by facial recognition technology in a reasonable manner.
