What is the Law on Personal Data?
The Law on Personal Data aims to guarantee protection for individuals' personal data and apply to organizations that collect, use, or share such data.
Key highlights
The Law on Personal Data and the GDPR share similar fundamental concepts and approaches within the realm of data protection, such as:
- the use of legal bases when processing;
- the appointment of data protection officers; and
- the approach to cross-border data transfer obligations.
However, despite their similarities, the Law on Personal Data and the GDPR also differ sometimes in their approach, such as:
- their considerations of children's personal data;
- penalties, both financial and otherwise; and
- controller and processor obligations.
