Description
The right to privacy or intimacy is contemplated in Paragraphs 1 and 12 of Article 16 of the Mexican Constitution, and prohibits the intrusion of an individual's person, family, domicile, documents or belongings (including any wiretapping communication devices), except when ordered by a competent authority supported by the applicable law. The right to data protection is stipulated in Paragraph 2 of Article 16 of the Mexican Constitution, and seeks to set a standard for collecting, using, storing, disclosing or transferring (collectively, processing) of personal data (as defined below) to secure the right to privacy and self-determination. The right to privacy and data protection are closely related fundamental rights that seek to protect individuals' ability to guard a portion of their lives from the intrusion of third parties. Notwithstanding this, while a breach of privacy usually results in a breach of the right to personal data protection, a data protection breach does not always result in a breach of privacy
