Gametes (Sperm & ovule) cryopreservation method is one of the resent subjects in medical fertility that helps child bearing in the future The cryopreservation-anybody that cannot bearing child nonce-with the purpose of bearing genetic children in the future, have been frozen their gametes and store them in gamete cryopreservation banks, but in some cases because of changing their opinion about having child or curing their disease and being able to nature procreation the applicants don’t need their frozen gametes nevermore. So, some of them tend selling them. But because of descent affiliation and its Judicial-Legal effects there is a big challenge between the opponents and consents about their transaction. On the other hand todays, human gametes trading is one of the most important problems, so it seems considering this topic is essential, but unfortunately there is not any academic research in this field in Iran. So, in this project we hardly tried to find the best Judicial-Legal solutions the problems in this field, because this is an applied and theoretical research in the theology field, there is no material. The main method in this research is bookcase. According to jurisprudence opinions based on the gametes’ impurity the human gamete transaction had been prohibited in the past, but attentions show that it refers to their usage at that time not their impurity so this prohibition cannot be entirely. Todays, because of their different medical, pharmacist, fertility, etc... usages they can be considered as property and there isn’t any prohibition for their transaction because of impurity. However, there isn’t any Judicial-Legal problems for transaction human frozen gametes which are extant in cryopreservation banks but, for the legal prohibition of donation medical fertility and marriage cancelling in bearing child at single status their transaction for the purpose of fertility is forbidden. But in some case such as medical, pharmacist, fertility, etc... researches according to the ethical codes it is permitted.

The persistence of personal data in digital environments has created new challenges for the protection of children’s fundamental rights, particularly the right to health understood as encompassing psychological well-being, personal development and dignity. This study examines the right to be forgotten as an emerging legal mechanism capable of safeguarding children’s right to health in the age of permanent digital memory. This research adopts a doctrinal and analytical-descriptive approach in international law. Relevant legal instruments, judicial decisions and interpretative documents including the Convention on the Rights of the Child and the jurisprudence of the Court of Justice of the European Union are examined to evaluate the normative relationship between the right to be forgotten and the child’s right to health. The analysis demonstrates that the right to be forgotten functions not only as a data protection mechanism but also as a preventive safeguard against psychological harm, reputational damage and long-term developmental risks arising from the permanent accessibility of childhood data. A child-centered interpretation of this right strengthens the protection of mental health, identity formation and informational autonomy. The study concludes that the right to be forgotten should be recognized as an integral component of the child’s right to health in the digital environment. Effective realization of this right requires child-oriented legal standards, enhanced platform accountability and accessible mechanisms enabling children to regain control over their digital identities.
