<ul><li><a href="Carnet_B" title="Carnet B">Carnet B</a>: Created in 1886, the Carnet B was, initially, a list of foreigners suspected of espionage. Prior to <a href="World_War_I" title="World War I">World War I</a>, the list was gradually expanded to include all persons likely to disturb public order and <a href="Antimilitarists" class="mw-redirect" title="Antimilitarists">antimilitarists</a> who might oppose national mobilization. Those listed were to be arrested in the event of war. In July 1914 the list contained 2,481 names. However, after the assassination of socialist leader and committed antimilitarist <a href="Jean_Jaur%C3%A8s" title="Jean Jaurès">Jean Jaurès</a> a few days before the start of World War I, most of the left-wing rallied to the <a href="Union_sacr%C3%A9e" class="mw-redirect" title="Union sacrée">Union sacrée</a> (Sacred Union) government and Carnet B was not used to detain individuals. The maintenance and use of Carnet B was discontinued on 18 July 1947.<a href="#cite_note-16">[16]</a><a href="#cite_note-17">[17]</a></li>

<li>Tulard database: In the <a href="Interwar_period" title="Interwar period">interwar period</a>, police officer <a href="Andr%C3%A9_Tulard" title="André Tulard">André Tulard</a> set up a database registering <a href="French_Communist_Party" title="French Communist Party">communists</a> and others activists. The database was used under <a href="Vichy_France" title="Vichy France">Vichy</a> to register Jews. These files were given to <a href="Theodor_Dannecker" title="Theodor Dannecker">Theodor Dannecker</a> of the <a href="Gestapo" title="Gestapo">Gestapo</a> and greatly assisted the <a href="French_police" class="mw-redirect" title="French police">French police</a> in carrying out raids against Jews, who were then interned at <a href="Drancy_internment_camp" title="Drancy internment camp">Drancy camp</a> before being deported to <a href="Nazi_concentration_camps" title="Nazi concentration camps">concentration camps</a> in <a href="Nazi_Germany" title="Nazi Germany">Nazi Germany</a>.<a href="#cite_note-18">[18]</a></li>

<li>INSEE code: During the World War II, <a href="Ren%C3%A9_Carmille" title="René Carmille">René Carmille</a> created what would become the <a href="INSEE_code" title="INSEE code">INSEE code</a> used as a <a href="National_identification_number" title="National identification number">national identification number</a> for people, organizations, and administrative regions. INSEE is the acronym for the <a href="INSEE" class="mw-redirect" title="INSEE">French National Institute for Statistics and Economic Studies</a>.<a href="#cite_note-19">[19]</a><a href="#cite_note-20">[20]</a></li>

<li>Répertoire national d’identification des personnes physiques: a national directory for the identification of natural persons, maintained by INSEE since 1946. It is regularly updated through statistical bulletins on civil status changes, drawn up and sent to INSEE by municipalities and containing details of births, deaths, recognitions and marginal notes made in birth certificates for persons born in metropolitan France or its overseas departments. The directory serves four purposes: (i) to eliminate confusion arising from people sharing the same name; (ii) use by tax authorities and pension funds to verify the civil status of individuals; (iii) contributing to health monitoring by sending daily information on deaths to the Institute for Health Monitoring; and (iv) generating demographic statistics to assist in decision-making. It includes information on the civil status of citizens: family name, sometimes the usual name (or marital name), given names, gender, date and place of birth, number of birth certificate, date and place of death and death certificate number for the recently deceased, and national registration number. The National System of Management of the Identities managed by Caisse Nationale d'Assurance Vieillesse, the social security pension administrator, is a copy of this data.<a href="#cite_note-21">[21]</a></li>

<li>Système Automatisé pour les Fichiers Administratifs et le Répertoire des Individus (SAFARI): an "<a href="SAFARI" title="SAFARI">Automated System for Administrative Files and Directories of Individuals</a>" was to have been a centralized database of personal data collected from many administrative departments and connected using the <a href="INSEE_code" title="INSEE code">INSEE code</a>.<a href="#cite_note-22">[22]</a> The massive popular rejection of this project after it became known to the public promoted the creation of the <a href="CNIL" class="mw-redirect" title="CNIL">Commission nationale de l'informatique et des libertés</a> (CNiL) to ensure <a href="Information_privacy" title="Information privacy">data privacy</a>. Databases are to have the CNiL's approbation before being authorized.<a href="#cite_note-23">[23]</a> In 2006 more than half the police records overseen by the <a href="CNIL" class="mw-redirect" title="CNIL">CNiL</a> were found to contain mistakes which required correction.<a href="#cite_note-24">[24]</a></li>

<li>Système de traitement des infractions constatées (STIC): a "Processing System for Recognized Offences" to register criminal offenders and plaintiffs was created in 1995 and legalized in 2001. In January 1997 it held the records of records of 2.5 million offenders and 2.7 million victims.<a href="#cite_note-STIC-25">[25]</a> In 2006 the STIC held 24.4 million records. Records are held for a maximum of 40 years. The STIC has sparked several controversies, as some people have not been able to find jobs because they were registered in the STIC (sometimes wrongly, others simply as victims). In 2005 the <a href="CNIL" class="mw-redirect" title="CNIL">CNiL</a> discovered errors in 47% of the records included in the STIC database.<a href="#cite_note-LDH-26">[26]</a></li>

<li>JUDEX: a system to register criminal offenders and plaintiffs used by the <a href="Gendarmerie" title="Gendarmerie">Gendarmerie</a> is similar to the STIC. JUDEX contained 2.2 million records in 2003.<a href="#cite_note-LDH-26">[26]</a></li>

It has grown from 2,807 profiles in 2003, to 330,000 in 2006, and 1.27 million in 2009.<a href="#cite_note-le_monde_8_11_ans_fiches-27">[27]</a><a href="#cite_note-28">[28]</a></li>

<li>Fichier judiciaire automatisé des auteurs d'infractions sexuelles: The Automated Criminal File of Sex Offenders, is a sex offender database operated by the <a href="Justice_Minister_(France)" class="mw-redirect" title="Justice Minister (France)">Justice Minister</a> created in 2004. The database records the name, sex, date and place of birth, nationality, alias, address, nature of the offense, date and place where the offense was committed, nature and date of the decision, and penalties or measures imposed. In October 2008 the database contained records for some 43,408 people.<a href="#cite_note-29">[29]</a></li>

<li>Base-élèves system: the Students-Base system, a database containing personal data on children age three and older and their families, including psychosocial data and information on competence, skills, and problems. Although initially accessed by educators and social actors, the new French law of March 2007 for the prevention of delinquency granted access to such information to Mayors for the purpose of preventing delinquency. However, after protests, data related to citizenship, language, and culture of origin were removed in October 2007. The <a href="Council_of_State_(France)" class="mw-redirect" title="Council of State (France)">Conseil d'État</a>, the highest administrative jurisdiction, held in two decisions of 19 July 2010 that the "Base-élèves" and the computerised file of student identifiers ("Base nationale des identifiants des élèves") were not functioning in compliance with the Data Protection Act. Further, the Conseil déetat considered that the collection of health data in the "Base-élèves" relating to children was not relevant and reminded in its decisions that parents have a right to object to the collection and processing of their children's data. It also held that the retention period of 35 years for the children identifiers contained in the database was excessive.<a href="#cite_note-PI-France-2011-30">[30]</a></li>

<li>ELOI index: short for l’éloignement (removal), the ELOI index is a register for foreigners and illegal aliens created by the <a href="Interior_Minister_(France)" class="mw-redirect" title="Interior Minister (France)">Interior Minister</a> in 2006 and subsequently declared illegal by the <a href="Council_of_State_(France)" class="mw-redirect" title="Council of State (France)">Conseil d'État</a>.<a href="#cite_note-PI-France-2011-30">[30]</a></li>

<li>Parafes: A 7 August 2007 <a href="Decree" title="Decree">decree</a> generalized a voluntary biometric profiling program of travellers in airports using fingerprints. The new database would be interconnected with the <a href="Schengen_Information_System" title="Schengen Information System">Schengen Information System</a> (SIS) as well as with a national database of wanted persons (<a href="Fichier_des_personnes_recherch%C3%A9es" title="Fichier des personnes recherchées">Fichier des personnes recherchées</a>). The CNiL protested against this new decree, opposing itself to the recording of fingerprints and to the interconnection between the two systems.<a href="#cite_note-Parafes-31">[31]</a></li>

<li>Loppsi II: In February 2010, the <a href="French_Parliament" title="French Parliament">French Parliament</a> adopted the <a href="Loppsi" class="mw-redirect" title="Loppsi">Loppsi II</a> "bill on direction and planning for the performance of domestic security", a far-reaching security bill that modernizes Internet laws, criminalizes online <a href="Identity_theft" title="Identity theft">identity theft</a>, allows police to tap Internet connections as well as phone lines during investigations, and targets child pornography by ordering ISPs to filter Internet connections.<a href="#cite_note-32">[32]</a> The law permits the creation of an informatic platform connecting numerous government <a href="Database" title="Database">databases</a>.<a href="#cite_note-33">[33]</a><a href="#cite_note-34">[34]</a> Previously, in 2004, the National Assembly voted the loi pour la confiance dans l'économie numérique to implement the <a href="Electronic_Commerce_Directive" class="mw-redirect" title="Electronic Commerce Directive">Electronic Commerce EU directive</a>. This law requires all <a href="Internet_Service_Provider" class="mw-redirect" title="Internet Service Provider">Internet Service Providers</a> (ISP), phone operators, webmasters, etc., to keep information on visitors (codewords, VISA cards numbers, pseudonyms, contributions on forums and blogs, etc.) for from one to three years.

<li>Fingerprints: In a decision delivered on 18 April 2013, the <a href="European_Court_of_Human_Rights" title="European Court of Human Rights">European Court of Human Rights</a> found that a 1987 French Decree related to storing fingerprint data is a privacy violation because:<a href="#cite_note-35">[35]</a>

<ul><li>the scope of the Decree is not limited to certain serious crimes, such as sexual offences or organised crime, but includes all offences, even the minor ones;</li>

<li>the database did not distinguish between those data subjects who were convicted and those who were not, nor did it make a distinction on whether the data subjects had been officially charged; and</li>

<li>the maximum data retention period of 25 years was disproportionate to the legitimate purpose of the Decree.</li></ul></li></ul>

The person alerts include: first and last names; middle initial, aliases, date of birth, sex, nationality, is the person armed and/or violent, reason for the alert, and the action to be taken if person is encountered. The remainder of the database contains alerts relating to lost, stolen, or misappropriated property, including: firearms, identity documents, blank identity documents, motor vehicles, and banknotes. SIS does not record travellers' entries into or exits from the <a href="Schengen_Area" title="Schengen Area">Schengen Area</a> or individual countries, although 14 Schengen participants have separate national databases which do record travellers' entries and exits.<a href="#cite_note-41">[41]</a></li></ul>

With a population of approximately 7 million, that meant that almost one out of every seven citizens had been under surveillance.<a href="#cite_note-Ganser-42">[42]</a></li>

<li>In 2002 a Swiss <a href="National_DNA_database" class="mw-redirect" title="National DNA database">national DNA database</a> was created to hold DNA samples taken from crime scenes and from suspects accused of committing serious crimes.<a href="#cite_note-43">[43]</a> In 2006 Switzerland had the fifth largest DNA database in Europe, behind England, Germany, Scotland and Austria.<a href="#cite_note-44">[44]</a></li></ul>

<li><a href="Combined_DNA_Index_System" title="Combined DNA Index System">Combined DNA Index System</a> (CODIS): a tiered set of databases at the local, state, and national levels. The tiered architecture allows crime laboratories to control their own data—each laboratory decides which profiles it will share with the rest of the country. State law governs which specific crimes are eligible for CODIS. A record in the CODIS database, known as a CODIS DNA profile, consists of an individual's DNA profile, together with the sample's identifier and an identifier of the laboratory responsible for the profile. CODIS does not contain any personal identity information, such as names, dates of birth, or social security numbers. CODIS consists of the Convicted Offender Index (profiles of individuals convicted of crimes), the Forensic Index (profiles developed from biological material found at crime-scenes), the Arrestee Index, the Missing or Unidentified Persons Index, and the Missing Persons Reference Index. As of 2006, approximately 180 laboratories in all 50 states participate in CODIS. At the national level, the National DNA Index System, is operated by the FBI.<a href="#cite_note-81">[81]</a> As of August 2013 the National DNA System contained over 10,535,300 offender profiles, 1,613,100 arrestee profiles, and 509,900 forensic profiles and has produced over 219,700 hits, assisting in more than 210,700 investigations.<a href="#cite_note-82">[82]</a> The National Institute of Justice's International Center promotes information sharing with other similar Institutes worldwide.<a href="#cite_note-Thibedeau-2011-1">[1]</a></li>
