Abstract: The paper assesses the importance of the UN in protecting the privacy right in the digital age and as a global leader in the privacy domain compared to other similar bodies. The study highlights the role of the UN rapporteur in increasing the level of comprehension on the topic and on monitoring the right to persons’ privacy globally. The study can thus contribute to the achievement of national goals of improving the protection of this right, given that governments and international institutions are in a continuous race to keep the pace with technical progress and to regulate their impact on the said right. International treaties signal existing risks, and states' efforts to adapt legislation to the evolution of the digitization process must be sustained responsibly. The aim of the paper is to present through the methods appropriate to the research, the need for an evolution of the regulations in the field, because the current ones, have a too wide spectrum or are a few steps behind the new technologies that must be controlled.
