A major provider of transportation and logistics services in the airport sector relied on our law firm, Meythaler & Zambrano, to design and implement a robust data protection and airport security compliance framework.
This effort was critical due to the complexity of managing large volumes of sensitive data, including service provider, customer, employee and non-personal information. The task included ensuring compliance with Ecuador's Organic Law on the Protection of Personal Data, as well as adherence to strict airport security protocols.
Challenges and solutions
There were significant challenges in adapting existing processes that lacked the necessary privacy safeguards and required enhanced security measures. Our team, led by Denisse Unda and David Almeida, developed a bespoke approach to address both data protection and airport security requirements. We implemented preventative measures to mitigate data incidents and established a structured data verification process to ensure that operations were aligned with the standards required to prevent human trafficking, drug smuggling, suspicious shipments and identity theft.
Key results
Enhanced privacy protocols: We implemented a rigorous data verification process to protect personal information and achieve a robust standard of compliance against legal and security vulnerabilities.
Airport security compliance framework: Implementation of the data protection system and security protocols strengthened the company's ability to comply with national airport security measures, enhancing its role in secure logistics.
Legal and operational security: New contracts, agreements and comprehensive policies were put in place, aligning all processes with Ecuadorian data protection legislation and ensuring legal and operational resilience to potential sanctions.
