Abstract
Children's use of the Internet is growing. Each company collects children's personal information. However, it is also difficult for children to recognize the concept of personal information. In this study, based on the analysis of newspaper children's personal information leakage, we investigated the occurrence of personal information leakage in children through ground theory, one of qualitative research methods used in the social science field. The ground theory is thought to be able to derive a causal relationship by identifying the leakage of children's personal information. As a result of the study, it was collected through the consent of the legal representative, but depending on the situation, the consent process was not performed. Even with the consent, it was found that due to insufficient measure to protect personal information, various situation(criminal damage, anxiety, embarrassment, anger, etc.) occurred the legal representative. As a result, children's personal information collection providers paid fines according to the situation.
