Features of civil protection of the right to privacy of students in the USA
The article deals with the legal doctrine and judicial practice of civil protection of privacy of students in the United States of America. The conclusion about expediency of borrowing positive experience of the American legal system (namely, the special civil-legal regulation of personal relations with the participation of the student) into national law is made. At the federal level, there are general acts in the United States of America (Act on the privacy), which relate to the general public, and special regulations (Act on family educational rights and privacy), which protect the rights of students to privacy. Compliance with the provisions of the University Act is a condition for receiving federal funding for universities. According to the interpretation of the USA Supreme Court, in the case of violation of personal non-property rights of a student on the privacy act prohibits the use of civil penalties, aimed at restoring law contains only publicly legal effects of deprivation of the educational institutions of federal funding. The conflict between the private right to privacy and the right to public access to information of public interest so far has no clear solution, which would agree the federal and state courts.
