Treatment of personal data in the Chilean Judiciary System: Juridisctional Big brother?

Abstract

The Electronic Processing Law establishes new rules about the personal data treatment in the Chilean Judiciary System, which oppose the current Law 19,628. The multiple origins of the personal data incorporated in the database of the jurisdictional entity make complex the differentiation based in the principle of finality. The new norm, in conjunction with the principle of publicity, ends in a force transfer of the ownership of personal or sensible data from the people that use the Judiciary System.
