2.1. Legislative Scope 2.1.1. Definition of Personal Data Scope of Application The PDPL has a broad scope of application, covering the processing of personal data within the country's borders. The PDPL discriminates in Article 2 the different types of personal data that can be found and defines each one of them. Broadly, personal data is defined as encompassing any information that allows the identification of an individual or makes them identifiable. This definition includes both direct and indirect identification criteria. Some of the law's definition of personal data encompasses a wide range of information, including but not limited to names, identification numbers, addresses, and even electronic identifiers.
1 .2 Additional or Ancillary Regulation, Directives, or Norms Complementing the principal legislation, several regulations and guidelines further detail data protection requirements. Notably, the Argentine Data Protection Authority (“Agencia de Acceso a la Información Pública”, hereinafter “AAIP”), the regulatory body responsible for enforcing data protection laws in Argentina, issues resolutions and guidelines to clarify specific aspects of data protection, ensuring consistent compliance across various sectors and industries, and providing further clarity of the PDPL, especially with newer technologies. These directives help organizations understand their obligations and best practices regarding data protection.
