Abstract

With the advent of the data economy, interest in using big data has increased, but conflicts with protecting personal information have been also steadily raised. In this regard, major countries are accelerating use of big data by exempting de-identified, pseudonymous personal information from protection. However, these policies have been made without the understanding that the economic value of personal information has been actually changing slowly. This paper presents the concept of 'collected information' and defines it as having public interest and therefore, not the exclusive property of the collector of such information. The paper shows the collected information has public interest in terms of personal information protection, connectivity, and universal service and public goods. It also specifies that the 'data governance' cannot be applied to the current data utilization framework that depends upon the holder's consent; rather, it raises the need to improve the practices of information provision consent or provide the beneficiary right of information use to the information holder in order to ensure the proper 'data governance' that will turn market failure into success.

데이터 경제의 등장과 함께 빅데이터 활용에 대한 관심이 증대되었으나 개인정보보호와의 충돌이 꾸준히 제기되어 왔다. 이에 주요 국가들은 비식별화 처리된 가명정보에 대해서는 개인정보보호에서 제외하고 빅데이터 활용을 가속화하고 있다. 그러나, 이러한 정책들은 개인정보의 재화적 성격이 물밑에서 서서히 변해 감을 간과한 채 이루어진 것이다. 본 논문에서는 '수집된 정보' 개념을 제시하고 그것이 공익성을 가지고 있으므로 정보수집자의 전유물만은 아님을 정리하였다. 수집된 정보는 개인정보보호, 연결성, 보편적 서비스 및 공공재 차원에서 공익성을 가지고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 그리고 현재의 정보제공 동의를 통한 데이터 활용체제 하에서는 '데이터 거버넌스'가 작동하지 않으며, 시장실패를 개선할 수 있는 올바른 '데이터 거버넌스'를 위해서는 정보제공 동의 관행을 개선하거나 정보주체에게 이용수익권을 부여해야 할 필요성을 제시하였다.
