C2C平台静默授权模式的合法性与合理性分析——以闲鱼APP为例

Legitimacy and Rationality Analysis of the Silent Authorization Model in C2C Platforms—A Case Study of Xianyu APP

摘要: 本文以闲鱼APP为例，分析C2C平台静默授权模式的合法性、合理性及其法律风险。静默授权虽在提升用户体验方面具有一定合理性，但其本质上侵害了用户的知情权与选择权，违反《个人信息保护法》的知情同意原则。文章创新性地提出，平台作为数据控制者应对用户承担信义义务，其核心在于忠实、勤勉与充分披露。通过构建以信义义务为基础的平台责任体系，可为治理隐私侵权提供法理支撑，推动平台在个人信息处理中履行更高标准的保护义务。

Abstract: This paper takes the Xianyu APP as a case study to analyze the legality, rationality, and legal risks of the silent authorization model employed by C2C platforms. While silent authorization offers certain practical benefits in enhancing user experience, it fundamentally infringes upon users’ right to know and right to choose, violating the principle of informed consent established in the Personal Information Protection Law of China. Innovatively, this article proposes that platforms, as data controllers, should bear fiduciary duties toward users, centered on loyalty, diligence, and full disclosure. By constructing a platform accountability framework based on fiduciary obligations, this study provides a jurisprudential foundation for addressing privacy infringements and encourages platforms to adopt higher standards of protection in personal information processing.
