Personal Data and Information Security
Since the enactment of the Habeas Data Law No. 25.326, the Firm has provided advice related to the protection of personal data and information security.
Globalization and the “Information Society” are undeniable realities that the Firm has long been aware of. The importance of information as an intangible asset of companies and organizations makes it necessary to adopt measures and adapt business processes.
The Firm has developed a very active practice in this area, being aware of the requirements and dangers involved in the handling of information. In this sense, it has participated in countless conferences, courses and seminars on the subject, describing the problems and solutions applicable to different industries.
Likewise, the Firm has organized several conferences, among them, the First National Debate on Habeas Data, held at the IAE – Business School of the Universidad Austral –, with the participation of government authorities, officials and leading professionals in the field, providing significant contributions on the application and future regulation of the current legislation.
