On July 8, the Ministry of Justice and Human Rights
(Ministerio de Justicia y Derechos Humanos), through the
Directorate General of Personal Data Protection and along with 11
representatives of taxi and transport services companies that
provide services via virtual applications, enacted a resolution (source document in Spanish)
concerning the protection of users' personal data. This
resolution, or "commitment," followed several claims that
taxi drivers were using clients' personal data to sexually
harass them. According to the resolution, companies will train taxi
drivers in order to avoid sexual harassment, work on the
implementation of clauses regarding data protection in their
contracts, and strengthen measures that protect the confidentiality
of users.
