The International Association of Relatives and People Affected by Lipodystrophies AELIP, has participated in an online training on privacy and data protection in Latin America promoted by the legal practice school of MYRO Associates and given by the professional Humberto de J Ortiz Rodriguez.
The main topic was the treatment of personal data in Mexico, Colombia, Peru, Brazil, Argentina and Venezuela.
AELIP, which currently has delegations in Peru, Chile and Argentina, did not want to miss this opportunity to update content and learn about data protection laws in these countries.
The Social Worker José Jerez Ruiz and the director Juan Carrión were in charge of representing the entity in this training day that was given via Zoom.
The president of AELIP Naca Eulalia Pérez de Tudela Cánovas wants to highlight the importance of updating and knowing the official data protection laws of these Latin American countries as there are numerous queries received from these countries.
AELIP, which has its headquarters in Spain, applies the European General Data Protection Regulation. This Regulation applies to the processing of personal data in the context of the activities of an establishment, controller or processor in the European Union, regardless of whether the processing takes place in the European Union or not.
