Abstract

Nowadays, we are facing a new era: the digital era. Therefore, the phenomenon of sharenting or parents' eagerness to share images, videos or information about their children, has become an omnipresent reality. In this context, parents are often the managers of their children’s digital identity, and, in their eagerness to share information, they are exposing children to social media. This conduct may constitute unlawful interference with the fundamental rights of privacy, honor, self-image and the protection of the child’s data. The main objective of this study is to analyze from a normative and jurisprudential point of view whether the rights of minors on the Internet, in particular the most affected right, which is that of the image itself, enjoy the same protection in the new digital era. Also, identify how this right responds to collisions with other fundamental rights, such as parental freedom of expression. This will be done through the analysis of international and national regulations, as well as existing jurisprudence in this regard, to give visibility and develop a critical examination for the defense of the best interests of the child. The results show that, despite some protection of the aforementioned rights, there are risks that have no specific regulation.
