La ineficiencia de la normativa vigente en la protección de datos personales en Ecuador.

Abstract

The technological advancement in information including everything that encompasses communication, that is to say that its erroneous use has beena problem, since it has allowed several personal data of users to move freely in a network; violating their right to the protection of these personal data, which is a fundamental right as endorsed by the Constitution of the Republic of Ecuador since 2008 and although it is a fundamental right is poorly regulated in our legal system. Ecuador is one of the Latin American countriesthat recently has a regulation focused on the protection of personal data issued on May 26, 2021, but the problem that exists is that it is not yet established the powers that has or should have the regulatory organ in charge of this law, which leaves somewhat defenseless to citizens; as there may be claims, and confusion to whom to turn to. Our country must be updated and be up to date to face the malpractice of technological abuses and not be left behind in the digital era.
