About the awards<\/p>\n
The IAPP recognizes five Privacy Vanguard Award winners, one from each of these geographical regions: EMEA, Asia, Oceania, North America (US and Canada) and Latin America (including Mexico). The winners will have demonstrated exceptional leadership, knowledge and creativity in privacy and data protection. <\/p>\n
Winners are formally celebrated at special awards presentation ceremonies at the IAPP Global Privacy Summit, IAPP Europe Data Protection Congress, the ANZ Summit and Asia Privacy Forum. They receive distinctive IAPP keepsakes commemorating their achievements and are recognized in IAPP publications. <\/p>\n
Latin America’s IAPP Vanguard Award winner is Allende & Brea Partner Pablo Palazzi<\/p>\n
Palazzi\u2019s privacy journey has seen him involved in the drafting of Argentina’s national data protection act and its regulations and the data protection law for the city of Buenos Aires. He was a foreign law advisor for the European Commission assessing the adequacy of Uruguay and Argentina. <\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m very happy to be recognized by my peers who are part of this community,\u201d Palazzi said. \u201cI started with IAPP when I would send out bulleted news about privacy in Argentina and South America before there was an internet, so this means a lot.\u201d <\/p>\n
Palazzi said his experience working with European regulators to introduce the EU General Data Protection Regulation was invaluable when it came time for Argentina to modernize its privacy laws.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s great to modernize your own laws, and to modernize your laws means you have to cooperate,\u201d Palazzi said. \u201cBecause I studied the development of (EU) GDPR from the moment it started, I was aware of all the nuances and details. We wanted to use the federal law of Argentina as a model but to update it with respect to new matters like biometric data, or genetic data, and the reference to the internet as public source of personal data, and a better regulation of the judicial process of habeas data.” <\/p>\n
