¿Cuál es el contenido del derecho a la protección de datos personales como un instituto de garantía de otras libertades fundamentales, según jurisprudencia de la Corte Constitucional?

Abstract

Abstract: In a digitized society, the right to the protection of personal data has acquired increasing relevance as a fundamental freedom aimed at safeguarding other fundamental freedoms, such as privacy, honor, informational self-determination, the free development of personality, and human dignity. That is, it is configured as a guarantee for the defense and protection of other fundamental rights. However, in light of the era of digital transformation, the risks remain and are increasingly greater. Therefore, this work seeks to establish a jurisprudential framework that defines the rights of personal data subjects, as a guarantee that allows them to exercise control over their personal information. This is because, in Ecuador, the right to the protection of personal data, in addition to being recognized in the Constitution and secondary legislation, is also developed in several pronouncements of the Constitutional Court of Ecuador, which as the highest interpretive body has specified its content, especially through habeas data.
