The National Data Protection Authority (ANPD), linked to the Ministry of Justice of Brazil, began an investigation on Monday, November 4, to establish whether the social network TikTok had access to the personal information of minors.

The state agency has urged the platform to implement a clear data protection policy and indicated in a statement that “these decisions are due to an audit of the network’s activities, according to which there are indications of violations of national laws that preserve personal information in Internet traffic.”

The ANDP emphasized that the privacy of personal data must have adequate protection guarantees for minors. The social network has a period of 10 days to “deactivate the resources that allow access to its content without the need for prior registration or age verification.”

In addition, the authorities have asked TikTok to present a plan detailing the restrictions for the creation of “fake profiles,” as well as the necessary protocols to prevent the opening of accounts for children and adolescents who do not have the assistance of their parents or guardians at the time of registration.

This year South Korea will implement the Virtual Currency Monitoring System, according to an announcement by the Ministry of Justice of the Asian country, which will have as its main objective to reduce crimes related to the crypto market, such as theft of funds and money laundering.

The regulation of transactions in Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies will be implemented this year, according to the South Korean newspaper ‘khgames’, with monitoring of the origin of the money in each operation, seeking to reduce illegal activities.

The South Korean Ministry of Justice has indicated that the Virtual Currency Tracking System will be implemented as “a response to the sophistication of crime, we will improve the forensic infrastructure. We will build a criminal justice system that meets international standards.”

This system is expected to come into force in the first half of 2023, with the promise of a second control mechanism that would be launched in the second half, according to the Executive.

The creation of a secure trading environment for holders of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies in South Korea requires the cooperation of various security entities, such as crypto exchanges, the police and other investigative entities, among others.

The Secretary of State for Justice, Tontxu Rodríguez, has indicated today that Spain wants to be an international benchmark in digital legal security. He pointed out that the investment made to advance in this field during the coronavirus pandemic must position the Spain brand “in the world, especially in the European and Latin American environment.“

At the inauguration of the 1st Digital Transformation Forum of the Administration of Justice, Rodríguez explained that this transformation also allows “overcoming gaps in access to the public system that persist today” such as the territorial gap, with special incidence in rural or more depopulated areas, or in the island communities.

Rodríguez added that the risk that the digital divide may pose must be taken into account, especially with regard to the most vulnerable groups of people, those who live in rural areas with connection problems, or those who are at risk of social exclusion.

“The digital transformation of Justice becomes the backbone of a large part of the procedural improvements, such as those that promote the widespread use of videoconferences or telematic communications, avoiding unnecessary travel and improving territorial cohesion. But it is also an essential element for the implementation of the Courts of Instance and the Judicial Office,” he said.

For his part, the legal director of the Spanish Confederation of Business Organizations (CEOE), José María Campos, stressed that for a country to be reliable in attracting investment, it must have “clear and practical” legislation and a predictable judicial system, agile and efficient, which is why it has been described as essential to invest in the Administration of Justice to avoid high litigation rates.

Boosting Spain digital transformation

The 1st Justice Administration Digital Transformation Forum aims to bring the creation of value between administrations, citizens and the private sector closer together, as well as to enhance the role of Justice in the Spanish digital transformation.

The Forum will work on four lines of action. The first is to reinforce digital legal security, so that Spain is a benchmark in the matter, exchanging information between the public and private sectors on problems and possible solutions.

The second refers to improving the effectiveness and efficiency of the processes so that they are faster and more effective, opening spaces for dialogue with citizens, companies and professionals in the Justice sector.

The third line of work will address direct investment in the field of information and communication technologies, to promote the digital transformation of the Justice sector, charged to the Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Funds.

While the fourth line will deal with the international dimension of the digital transformation of Justice, sharing experiences, solutions and good practices, both in Europe and in Latin America and the Caribbean.
