Research on the Protection of User Privacy Rights in Smart Elderly Care Models

Against the backdrop of an era where population ageing intersects with digital transformation, smart elderly care service models are accelerating their development due to their potential to enhance the quality of life and health management efficiency for the silver-haired generation. This paper focuses on the construction of privacy security systems for data subjects within smart elderly care scenarios. It first clarifies the connotations of the smart elderly care service framework, the specific privacy elements and their enabling functions within particular domains, and the unique value of their safeguarding. It then systematically deconstructs existing governance challenges: obstacles to informed consent arising from holistic data collection, risks of undermining information autonomy through algorithmic decision-making, and the absence of remedial mechanisms due to regulatory lag. A sustainable equilibrium between technological innovation and privacy rights protection can be achieved by establishing a collaborative governance framework that integrates technical defence capabilities, institutional constraints, and legal remedies.
