The Andean Community has come up with a new\u00a0<\/span>Patent Examination Manual<\/a>\u00a0<\/span>for IP offices throughout the community, updating the current Patent Manual published back in 2003. This new manual will establish unified and clear guidelines as to criteria that must be considered by examiners when reviewing an application.<\/p>\n This new manual is the work of more than forty experts who sat in over twenty technical sessions, as well as WIPO\u2019s oversight and the revision of three versions of the document.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n On the other hand, it is worthy to note that this Manual was not subject to third-party commentary or revision, which in the end, could have complemented the aforementioned efforts to create an effective, complete and comprehensive guide for both examiners and applicants.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”0px||0px||true|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px||true|false” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.olartemoure.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/data-privacy-in-marketing.jpeg” alt=”marketing data privacy” title_text=”data privacy in marketing” align=”center” force_fullwidth=”on” _builder_version=”4.17.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.6″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”|600|||||||” text_text_color=”#000000″ text_font_size=”13px” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n 07\/28\/22 – Data Privacy<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.6″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||1rem||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n Colombia\u2019s Data Privacy authority recently announced measures for personal data protection aimed at data controllers and processors.

These visits were to verify possible violations to consumer protection regulations.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span> [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”0px||0px||true|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px||true|false” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.olartemoure.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/copyright.jpeg” alt=”fictional characters copyright” title_text=”copyright” align=”center” force_fullwidth=”on” _builder_version=”4.17.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.6″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”|600|||||||” text_text_color=”#000000″ text_font_size=”13px” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n 07\/28\/22 – Copyright<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.6″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||1rem||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n
They also emphasize the duty of requesting data subject\u2019s authorization in a prior, express and informed manner for data collection and for\u00a0<\/span>marketing, merchandising and advertising purposes<\/a>. Otherwise, it is understood that the data was obtained unlawfully.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>
The above shows the intention to protect the fundamental right of habeas data in all arenas, given it extends to all digital advertising campaigns.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
While authorities were looking for possible violations to consumer protection regulations, they found shortcomings such as:\u00a0<\/span>(i) lack of information in vehicle conditions, either proof of receipt or the technological means to replace such proof; (ii) lack of sufficient and suitable information on the available means of payment; among others.<\/a>
Consequently, the SIC issued 17 administrative orders to parking lots seeking infringing conduct to cease. Failure to comply with the orders issued would have the authority initiate administrative investigations resulting in fines or more drastic measures such as shutting down establishments depending on how serious the violations.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>
This shows that the SIC maintains rigorous and constant surveillance of this sector.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>
