A new issue is emerging regarding the policy and legal affairs for the protection and use of personal information at the time of natural disaster. Since a guideline was enacted in 2005, individual municipalities have gathered and shared the personal information of vulnerable people to disasters in various ways, and it became necessary to review the theory of policy and legal affairs for the information of vulnerable people to disasters. This paper is aimed at critically grasping the “3 methods” for collecting and sharing the information of vulnerable people specified in the guideline, discussing again and clarifying how such information should be gleaned and shared.
