Argentian Companies Express Concern Over Data Protection Amendment Bill

A second draft bill of Argentina's protection legislation, part an ongoing process to modernize the country's Personal Data Protection 2000, would remove the obligation to register databases with the PDP, and includes provisions to create a national Do Not Call Registry.
 
It also supplements the current list of definitions under the Law to include data controller, data processor, and data breach.
 
The Draft Bill would also require data controllers to apply the principles of Privacy by Design and Privacy by Default, both before and during data processing, and to carry out Privacy Impact Assessments when the processing is likely to cause harm to data subjects.
