We are becoming increasingly aware that we must protect our data, but there is still much work to be done.
Today, 28 January, is European Data Protection Day. A fundamental right of all people which means that we are the owners of our personal data. The number of investigations is increasing and it is the big companies that take the cake for the big works, accumulating more data, Google among others, the right to be forgotten, or the media, that move the most data and always No. They do it correctly.
This is how Jorge Campanillas, a lawyer who specializes in new technologies, was told in the magazine “Let us be carried away” on Radio Vitória. We continue to pay little attention to our personal data and Margarita Uria, President of the Basque Agency for Data Protection, confirmed this statement. The agency that ensures that the law in this regard is complied with in public administration recalls that the right to data protection is linked to the individual, guarantees the security of the family, and personal data is the most secure. Personal data such as the death itself, the right to be forgotten, or wills are data that are protected in a special way.
This week, in which a supermarket has been penalized and forced to compensate Cristina Cifuentes for the violation of her right to privacy due to the dissemination of images, we pay special attention to data protection both in the intimate sector and . Administration.
