Ecuador will publish in the coming days its first Personal Data
Protection Law in the most European style after a long time working
on it. Our senior associate Rafael Serrano writes about it
in LexLatin.
This great advance for Ecuador, although the right was
guaranteed since 2008 but without a norm that would regulate it,
will allow companies to have a refined database with globally
homogenized standards and, above all, to have greater protection of
the personal information.
In the words of Rafael Serrano, "it is about establishing a
framework of parameters to process correct information".
All those people who store information that identifies or makes
any individual identifiable, directly or indirectly, and in any
type of support, will be affected by this rule.
