La majorité numérique correspond [...] à l'âge auquel la loi considère un mineur comme propriétaire de ses données personnelles. Par conséquent, il peut consentir seul à un traitement de ses données à caractère personnel sans l'aval de ses représentants légaux. Il est donc en mesure d'accepter ou non que des services tiers aient accès à ses données pour les collecter à des fins commerciales. [...] La majorité numérique est donc l'âge légal à partir duquel un mineur peut, par exemple, ouvrir un compte sur un réseau social sans avoir besoin du consentement des titulaires de l'autorité parentale. 2, record 1, French, - majorit%C3%A9%20num%C3%A9rique
