Our reading of where this law's duties sit in each framework, and in the NIST Privacy Framework, line by line beside each duty above. It never says that running a control meets the law. How we read a framework against the law

What the log must hold

Consent or opt-out state

Logging duty

Article 6 puts on the controller the burden of proving that the data subject consented, which cannot be shown without a consent record. Article 9 has the controller apply measures so as to guarantee and be able to demonstrate compliance, and article 4 (diligencia debida) asks it to demonstrate that its measures are effectively implemented; neither names a log or register. Article 8 lets the control authority require the controller's prior analysis justifying a legitimate-interest basis, which gives the authority a demand over that document. Article 4's storage-limitation principle limits the data, not a record, and sets no period for one. Article 14 requires an impact assessment before risky processing, with its content left to the regulation, and article 15 requires prior consultation of the authority, which is a filing. The authority's audit powers are in article 35, outside the row. The hook lists the four limbs of article 2: establishment in Paraguay, processing of data of persons located in Paraguay, offering goods or services to residents, and monitoring behavior in Paraguay.

Article 2 applies the law to any automated or non-automated processing of personal data forming part of a file, by natural or legal persons. Article 4 sets the general principles of personal data protection and article 5 requires at least one lawful basis before personal data may be processed. Article 6 requires consent to be prior, free, informed and unambiguous, article 7 governs the consent of children and adolescents, and article 8 legitimate interest.

Articles 9 to 12 fix the positions of the controller, joint controllers, the processor and their representatives, and article 13 binding self-regulation mechanisms. Article 14 requires an impact assessment before implementing processing that warrants one and article 15 prior consultation of the supervisory authority. Article 16 requires the controller and processor to take security measures, and article 18 provides for the data protection officer.

Articles 24 and 25 govern access to public information alongside data protection, and the exchange of personal data between public institutions. Article 57 enters the law into force twenty-four months after its official publication.
