In some cases when the new address is found, it can only be communicated according to the problem.

This is the case when an adult decides to disappear to avoid his family. When requesting a search, the investigation director responsible for the case will ask for a certain number of elements to legitimize the searches.

What does the law say ?

An individual’s address is part of the personal data category.

This data is very protected in France and is regulated by the law of January 6, 1978 called “computer science and freedoms”.

They are defined in theSection 2 of The Computer, Files and Freedoms Act 78-17, which states that ” constitutes a personal data any information relating to a natural person identified or that can be identified, directly or indirectly, by reference to an identification number or one or more elements of its own (…) ».

As such, postal addresses are subject to the provisions of the law of January 6, 1978.

The protection of personal data can therefore lead to seizures by the French justice system for violations. The court provides for a class action in the event of a breach of personal data, which is called a “collective action” in order to obtain a halt to the data breach and compensation for the damage suffered (if the incident occurred after May 24, 2018).

To do this, you have to go to an approved association or a specific union, they will operate the procedure of the group action. On the other hand, one of two conditions must be met:

Having been harmed by a processing manager’s failure to comply with his or her personal data protection obligations (example: you have been robbed from the disclosure of your personal information)
At least two people believe that they have been harmed in personal data as a result of the same breach of a professional

In addition, the personal address of an individual is part of his or her private life and the invasion of privacy that is repressed by the law that defines it in article 9 of the Civil Code, which states that “everyone has a right to privacy.”

Executing a court decision
Search for a debtor
Looking for a family member
Search for an heir
Find the address of an employee who is in abusive sick leave
Making a person’s creditworthiness

Before beginning the search for a person’s address, the private investigator will need to asstain the legitimacy of the request. After that, the private investigator in charge of the address search will have to:
