Research summary

Legal information, not legal advice. This is LexLint's own research summary of a public legal source, and it creates no attorney-client relationship. For decisions that matter, consult qualified counsel in the relevant jurisdiction. About LexLint

LOPDGDD Titulo III (Arts. 11-18) mirrors General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) Articles 12-22 domestically: transparency, access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, and objection.

Titulo X then layers freestanding rights with no GDPR counterpart, confirmed against the article titles: Article 93's right to be forgotten against internet search engines, Article 94's equivalent against social-network services, Article 95's social-network portability right, and Article 96's right to a digital will governing a deceased person's digital accounts.
