With the validity of the Constitution of the Republic of 2008, the protection of personal data that is constantly at risk of being violated, due to the development of technology and the use of different digital platforms, is guaranteed. For this reason, it is necessary to identify which rights are implicit and how they can be violated. In Ecuador, particularly since the Covid-19 pandemic, the use of apps has become more frequent, as well as the requirement of information on the health of people by the State, for this reason, it is important to analyze the respective regulation around the subject that has been carried out with the validity of the Personal Data Protection Law. For this purpose, a descriptive research with a qualitative approach has been used, based on the exegetical analysis of the constitutional norms, as well as the Organic Law of Jurisdictional Guarantees and Constitutional Control in contrast to the Organic Law of Data Protection of Ecuador. In addition, to the review of the resolutions of the Constitutional Court of Ecuador and the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights.
