The issue of the elderly is a constant concern at the level of international organizations and demographic ageing is a complex phenomenon that primarily affects economically developed countries. At the level of the European Union, we find many types of research carried out every year on the ageing population with an emphasis on the analysis of the life of the elderly (over 65 years old) or very old (over 85 years old). The statistical indicators followed are already established: demographic characteristics, pensions, health care, long-term care etc. – are often analysed in direct connection with the possibilities of protection systems to ensure a longer life for these people, in decent conditions. In this context, the concept of active ageing has already been imposed, through which older people can participate in socio-economic life and after retirement in the idea of ​​an increase in both financial and quality of life. All these concerns are taking a new turn in the digital era, with the possibility for older people to use new technologies to access all public services, life quality being strongly discussed. This article is exploratory documentation of this topic.
