Somewhat concerning if official #competition #policy intentionally tries to loosen competition rules for #companies from some countries, while politicising competition and ramping up #enforcement against others - based on their country of origin. #Europe needs to choose which path to follow and be consistent. That approach seems like a bad way to start a #trade war, chase away #investment and harm #competitiveness even further. I hope the hearings prove this to be inaccurate. "(The rules) can be softened in many directions, but always in the sense of strengthening European capacities" I can imagine the pitch…. ‘Come invest in Europe, but we will ensure you can’t grow beyond our chosen threshold and we will prioritise your competition’… #CCIAeurope #competitiom #DMA #digitalmarketsact #protectionism #innovation #investment #EUCommission EU Competition Policy #draghireport #telecoms #mergers #BetterRegulation CCIA Europe

The European AI regulation and the new requirements of the Spanish Data Protection Agency open up a scenario of uncertainty for companies in a sector in turmoil. Biometric techniques, which identify individuals through intrinsic physical traits such as fingerprints, face, or voice, have been widely used across various sectors to enhance security and user experience. However, they face new challenges as their use is scrutinised to prevent potential unintended consequences. In Europe, the recent AI regulation categorizes these systems based on risk and establishes associated restrictions, making Europe the first region with such comprehensive regulation on these solutions. This agreement will mark a milestone in the biometrics business. Additionally, in Spain, the Spanish Data Protection Agency (AEPD) published a guide last November 2023 that toughens criteria for the use of biometrics in access control, considering this treatment as high risk.

According to recent studies developed by the Spanish firm Finetwork, 33.37% of people still choose common names and numbers to create their passwords. When creating their new passwords, almost half of the respondents (47.16%) make small variations on the same key, and another 10.37% use exactly the same one. Furthermore, 42.27% of respondents admit to writing down their passwords on paper or digital documents, and 73.09% keep default passwords on their cards or devices. Regarding cyber scams, 35.52% of respondents claim to have received SMS with fraudulent links. Additionally, 30.63% report being contacted by robots trying to sell them something, and another 28.08% have been victims of attempted fraud through WhatsApp. This highlights the growth of cybercrime worldwide and the need to strengthen your passwords by making them more robust, changing them periodically, and using two-factor authentication. 3+ Security is your ally in corporate security information.

👉🏼 At Spanish Lawyer NYC, we are attentive to legal developments that may significantly impact our clients, such as the current situation with the Wealth Tax in Spain. The Constitutional Court (TC) is evaluating an appeal of unconstitutionality against the amendments made by Law 11/2020 of the General State Budget for the year 2021 (LPGE 2021). Changes Introduced: 🔹Increase in Tax Rates: the rates for the last tax bracket were increased, going from 2.5% to 3.5%. This increase is seen by some tax experts as potentially confiscatory, which could lead the TC to declare it unconstitutional. 🔹 Elimination of the 100% Bonus: the bonus that had been applicable since 2008 was eliminated, turning a previously temporary tax into a permanent one. According to Article 134.7 of the Spanish Constitution, the creation of a new tax through budgets is prohibited, which could also be considered unconstitutional. This situation presents a scenario of legal uncertainty that could affect tax returns for 2021 and 2022, and possibly 2023. We are prepared to assist our clients with the necessary actions depending on the outcome of this constitutional assessment. #lawyer #lawyerspain #tax #internationallawyer #immigrationspain #taxes #taxesinspain #Spanishlawyer #inmigationlawyers #inheritanceinspain #estateinspain #beckhamlaw

Dentons drives contract automation with generative AI: The firm trains an AI model to automate templates in Contract Express, allowing it to generate documents with a single command. The bot, developed to understand the coding language of this platform, streamlines contract processes and is being tested in Europe by a team led by Luis BELART SIGUERO - MBA in Spain, together with María del Mar Sánchez-Contador de Ros and Icíar Pérez-Puente Hornillos. In this article, the words of Bretislav Simral, Director of Innovation and Intelligence at Dentons.
