From Wikipedia

Machine-translated from the French article

Personal law is the part of civil law that studies persons as subjects of law, that is to say: This subject is justified by the fact that persons enjoy particular rights, which are attached to their own person: these are personality rights. These include the rights to name, domicile, image, protection of private life, etc., as well as all the legal rules governing legal majority and incapacities. These rights can sometimes be confused with human rights, civil and political rights.
