The digitalization of services and markets is the phenomenon
that has defined the direction of commercial and social relations
between people. Especially in the Western world, it has had and has
a significant socioeconomic impact on the lives of inhabitants,
corporations and even public entities of any kind.
Consequently, new responsibilities arise, to which the law and
the different legal systems must adapt. The protection of personal
data is therefore a fundamental element in the economic and social
environment; as the new forms of business that incorporate
companies, governments and people evolve into the digital era.
These elements all demand from the authorities efforts in the
protection of the personal information to guarantee the privacy and
intimacy of each individual.
