Item type:Ítem, universitario(Universidad Técnica de Ambato, Facultad de Jurisprudencia y Ciencias Sociales, Carrera de Derecho, 2026-01-27) ;Merino Lara, Peter AndresRomo Santana, José LuisThe research titled “Legal Parameters of the Data Protection Law in the University Environment” conducted a legal analysis of the application of the Organic Law on Personal Data Protection within higher education institutions, aiming to determine how the legal parameters established in the regulation influenced the institutional processes for managing personal data at the Technical University of Ambato and various private universities. The study was based on a qualitative methodology with a documentary and descriptive design, supported by an extensive review of doctrine, national and international regulations, as well as interviews with experts in legal and academic fields. The findings revealed that data protection within the university environment operated in a limited manner; although institutions had clear regulatory obligations, gaps persisted due to the absence of specific protocols, a weak privacy culture, inadequate management of consent, and a lack of systematic training for students, faculty, and administrative staff. Additionally, it was identified that some universities processed sensitive data without properly defining purposes, retention periods, or security measures, resulting in legal risks and potential violations of the fundamental right to informational self-determination. The study concluded that the Organic Law required structural adjustments that were not yet fully implemented within the institutions, making it necessary to strengthen internal policies, ensure transparency in data processing, and promote an institutional culture committed to the effective protection of personal information in the academic environment
