Spanish universities controlled online exams with facial recognition. AEPD has decided that it is enough

by

The Spanish Agency for Data Protection (AEPD) has reached a clear conclusion about the use of biometric systems with artificial intelligence in online university evaluation. There is no possibility that they can be used legally, at least without a specific enabling law. The trigger. The AEPD has presented A complaint against the International University of Valencia. The VIU had been using a system that combined use of artificial intelligence tools with double camera recording (which the student must contribute) to monitor online tests. It is a practice that It has been doing for more than three yearsand that the agency has sanctioned rejecting the legitimacy of this data processing. Viu is not alone. The International University of Valencia is not an isolated case. Some of the most prestigious in Spain, such as University of BurgosUniversity Isabel I, European University, or the University of La Rioja have been implementing this system for years. It is a solution to the growing demand for 100% online training, with tools that allow the student to monitor without the need for the exams in person. The main objective, according to universities, is to avoid fraud and impersonations of identity during evaluations. The culprit. Smowl, this is the name of The online exam supervision tool. This solution, designed for both business and academic use, allows monitoring with webcam, extra camera, browser block, eyelashes control and, ultimately, replaces human role in exam supervision. In the case of the UIV, it was guaranteed that these data were pseudo and eliminated “quickly”, although it recognized that the processing of these data meant “a very high impact risk for the rights and freedoms of the affected people” The universities are covered in which it is the student who gives their consent to the use of these tools by accepting the general conditions of the course in which it has enrolled. The AEPD has another opinion. There is no legislation that covers its use. Universities are shielding that it is the student who gives their consent to the use of these tools by accepting the general conditions of the course in which it has enrolled. The AEPD has another opinion. “The consent cannot be considered valid because there was no real and effective alternative to students as the software used is the only method allowed to perform online exams. Their rejection by students involved losing their right to evaluation. Nor is the mandatory acceptance of general conditions to enroll when enrolled.” These data are of special category and are regulated by Article 9 of the General Data Protection Regulation (RGPD) Since 2022. According to the agency, there is currently no legitic exception in said article or a specific legal framework that enables these practices. It is also rejected that students can give consent, having no alternative available. But it doesn’t close the door. Data protection does not close the door completely to these types of systems. Specifies that it is necessary to develop specific regulations to determine “in what cases, conditions and under what guarantees this biometric treatment can be carried out”. “ Currently, without frame in which to protect yourself, the use of these tools will be subject to sanction for breach of the GDPR. A deep modification of the regulation would not be necessary, it would suffice with an exception that specifically reflect these scenarios of use. Facial recognition in Spain. It is not the first time that Spain calls into question the use of this type of systems. The OBERTA UNIVERSIDAD DE CATALUÑA was sanctioned In 2022 with 20,000 for using facial recognition in their exams. Outside the educational field, one of the most popular cases was that of Mercadona, fined 2.5 million euros for a pilot project in which they tested a facial verification system in their supermarkets. At a lower level, local companies have also faced large fines for breaching the regulations of the GDPR in the workday registry through biometry. Despite this, it is a technology used in video surveillance systems, Like Renfeor that of Madrid in its streets with hundreds of cameras with AI to reinforce the security of the capital.

Online trade was supposed to retire supermarkets. The reality is that in Spain they do not stop opening

by

Despite all its uncertainties and The unknowns sown by the tariff war, 2025 promises to be a good year for the supermarket sector. At least if we trust Growth forecasts and shared figures A few days ago by Asedasthe Spanish Association of Distributors, Self -Services and Supermarkets. According to their estimates, during the first four months of the year 244 stores have opened in Spain, 25% more than during the same period last year. Not just that. The sector expects to say goodbye to 2025 with 850 new establishments. If confirmed, the map of establishments distributed throughout Spain could exceed the 26,000 barrier. A figure: 778. He arrives at the majority of cities and large municipalities in the country to verify the trend, but besieged, the employer of the sector, has put figures: In Spain there are more and more supermarkets. According to their latest annual report, in 2024 they opened 778 new stores that raised the total map of points of sale of the country (self -services, super and hypermarkets) to 25,585. Once the closures are discounted, that leaves a “Net growth” of 352 businesses with respect to those operated in 2023. And how will this year go? Although 2024 closed with a map of the sale map, the inaugurations rhythm was somewhat lower than that of recent years. In 2024, 778 openings were registered, but in 2023 they were 787 and the previous year 889. Asedas, which Agglutina To companies such as Savoramas, Aldi, Covirán, Día, Lidl or Mercadona, hope that this “slight descent” is “passenger”. The reason: So far this year the association has already registered 244 openings, 25% more than during the same months of 2024. Their forecasts pass because the year ends with 850 new premises. Changes in the sector. Beyond its opening data or the size of the National Park, The report Asedas is interesting because it leaves some ideas about the trends that govern in the sector. The most interesting probably is that the supermarket format “strengthens itself as the most successful”, compared to others such as self -service or hypermarket. The association also requires that more than half of the stores (about 50.6%) “They are framed in proximity and coexistence formulas.” Interesting is also the speed with which the market changes. Asedas estimates that since 2021 almost a quarter (23%) of the network has been renewed or renovated. For the collective the key to that “dynamism” connects mainly with associative trade, such as franchises and cooperatives, which in 2024 were behind approximately 60% of the openings. “They have a great impact on the rural world, since a third of these inaugurations occurred in municipalities with less than 10,000 inhabitants,” They emphasize. “Regional leaders”. Another of the keys to the growth of the sector is, In Asedas opinionin the “regional leaders.” In fact, in its report, the focus on 25 companies (audited in total 320 companies) that increased their average commercial area from 2021, which far exceeds the general tendency of the sector, which also grew, but only 4.3%, were audited. It is not the first to point in that direction. In 2024 Kantar He already pointed out in Another sectorial study How the super regional were planting the white brands and large chains. “In a context of market stability, the organized distribution sector has registered a 0.6% growth in volume during 2024, mainly driven by short assortment chains and regional supermarkets,” Kantar collected in February, in February Another report in which he calculates that regional ones have reached a quota of 18% after having grown 0.7 points. The reason: its supply of frescoes, personalized service and expansion to new geographical areas. Pending rural. Asedas slides another interesting idea: despite the urban exodus, their data shows that in Rural the retail Food continues to register more openings than closures. Between 2020 and 2024 he estimates that they have opened their doors 1,117 new stores In municipalities with less than 10,000 inhabitants, which means that almost a quarter (23.6%) of the openings were concentrated in rural environments. The employer also highlights the role of small businesses and family chains with networks of 10 or even less stores, although the truth is that smaller businesses do not always endure the thrust of the chains. Kantar slides That the growth of the “organized distribution sector”, including regional supermarkets, has been achieved in part by the “volume transfer” from the “traditional trade”, which has punctured almost 4%. Their February data They corroborate that operators with the highest market share in value are Mercadona, Carrefour, Lidl, Eroski, Dia, Consum, Alcampo, Aldi and IFA. Among the nine bind a quota that touches 70% of the market. In total Asedas estimates that the sector set has 25,585 active establishments (14,486 supermarkets, 10,589 self -service and 510 hypermarkets) that give direct employment to about 414,100 people. The annual investment in new construction of the Round collective between 1,000 and 1.3 billion of euros. Are all opportunities? No. Despite the opening data or the increase in the benefit (together the main companies added 2,141 million of euros in 2023, with an ascending profitability curve), the sector also faces challenges. The main one: although the business expect to growwill do it in a very competitive scenario. “In a market that barely grows in volume, the challenge is to gain share of other competitors. It requires having a clear and differential value proposal, which attracts and fidelize better to consumers and exploit roads of inorganic growth,” Comment to The avant -garde Enrique Porta, consumer partner and retail of the KPMG audit. Another key is to adapt to new market trends, such as less and less weight relative of the hyper, or adjust the size of the network to the demand. After all, although the sector expects to register hundreds of new openings throughout the year, which could even raise the points of sale above 26,000, Nor is it alien to closures, layoffs and readjustments.

Thousands of freelancers in Spain have seen how their personal data (including their NIF, address or telephone number) circulated With total impunity By business databases, and could be bought by third parties for commercial purposes. A resolution of the Spanish Agency for Data Protection (AEPD) has put a brake on this practice, ordering the mass deletion of the records of these autonomous and the immediate cessation of the commercial use of your data. AEPD warning to the Chamber of Commerce. In A statement From the AEPD, the agency has expressly prohibited the Chamber of Commerce of Spain sharing the personal data of self -employed professionals with companies such as Camedata, reports D&B, Iberinform International and Datacentric. With this measure, the AEPD seeks to protect the right to privacy Of the self -employed stating that the data managed by the Chambers of Commerce have as the sole legal purpose to serve institutional functions as representative public bodies and business promotion, but “it has not been designed as a source of economic advertising or as an open database for other uses” and considers that its commercial use is not collected in the law as a legitimate interest. THE ORIGIN OF THIS DATA. When an autonomous professional begins his activity, he must register in the census of economic activities of the Tax Agency. In that census, data such as the NIF are included, the postal address in which the activity is developed (or its fiscal domicile), as well as contact data. In compliance with Law 4/2014Finance gives access to this data to the Chamber of Commerce, through Camedata, with the aim of using them for the development of statistics and companies to support companies. The problem is that, as they are unipersonal companies, in most cases the postal address, the tax identification number or the contact data of the companies coincide with the personal data of the autonomous. Public access for commercial purposes. The AEPD statement considers proven that private platforms with commercial interests such as D&B, Iberinform Internacional and Datacentric, had access to self -employed data listings, and segmented them by offering them to their respective clients in exchange for economic remuneration. So now, he has ordered the immediate elimination of all the personal information of the self -employed “until they have a basis for legitimation.” According to estimates of the XNET platform, around one million freelancers were at risk of seeing their personal data published and marketed on the Internet. An investigation of more than three years. The complaint that has given rise to this resolution It was presented in 2022 by the XNET Digital Rights Defense Platform. This organization discovered that it was the Chamber of Commerce itself that facilitated the violation of rights to transfer the data of the self -employed to private companies for commercial exploitation without knowledge nor the consent of those affected. Xnet’s investigation showed that, in some cases, the platforms continued to offer self -employed data that had already been discharged, which further aggravated the exposure and risk of exposing the personal data of thousands of people.

Online trade was supposed to end the shopping centers. Reality has been just the opposite

by

The combination of online trade boom and the Platforms of Ecommerceadded to The misgivings that came from the US and THE MAZAZO The pandemic made the shopping centers face a particular (and threatening) ‘storm’. There was even talk of “Apocalypse of retail“. That is left behind. Or at least this is suggested by the figures that handle the commercial areas of Spain. In addition to grow in sales and activitythey have become an appetizing candy in the eyes of investors, one that moves hundreds of millions of euros in transactions. And there is a round data that demonstrates it: 1,000 million. Complicated years. Pandemia hit enough sectors and business models. And shopping centers They were no exception. Between health restrictions and changes in consumption habits, during the worst years of COVID-19 its managers suffered a Influence collapse of customers and a collapse in Sales. As in other industries, although in the case of large surfaces that scenario was added to another more structural cariz threat: the competition of the Ecommerce and platforms such as Aliexpress. Was who wondered If the shopping centers would have a future in a world in which trade and entertainment changed driven by Amazon or Netflix. In the US they even coined the term “Apocalypse of retail“. From there a fear expanded that He arrived in Europe (and Spain) despite some experts They warned Already at that time that the sector was different here from the American, with an average density of commercial areas lower than that of the US market. From ugly duckling to swan. That scenario seems to be behind. The salmon press carry months suggesting itbut the most forceful test left it a few days ago A chronicle of Five days in which a significant fact is provided: 2025 has started with five operations of sale of shopping centers from Spain to the point of caramel and adding, together, around one billion euros. The data is interesting for its volume. But also because it shows that, despite the catastrophic scenario that was painted years ago, when there was talk of the “apocalypse of the retail“And the threat of electronic commerce, shopping centers continue to interest investors. As suggests The chronicle of Five days, The data suggests that the old “real estate duckling” will become swan. What operations are? These five operations on track and in which relevant news is expected during the first half of the year are starred in centers distributed by the country. The Economic newspaper speaks of Mediterranean space (Cartagena), Corridor Park (Torrejón de Ardoz), the 50% of the capital from Madrid Xanadú (Aroyomolinos), Bonaire (Aldaya) and Alcalá Magna (Alcalá de Henares). Each case has its peculiar, route and actors, but share a common denominator that says a lot from the sector: they all point to draft operations, for high amounts, nine digits. Its sum would in fact around the one billion. And the most curious thing is that the figure does not seem to respond to a specific interest in shopping centers. The AECC data They show that in 2024 there was already progress in relevant transfer and investments for more than 900 million. The key: profitability. It is not surprising that 2025 start with such a scenario.

The economic return they aspire is also tempting. Five days Precisethat transactions are closing to a profitability between 7 and 8%, which exceeds other assets, such as offices Prime or the house for rent. “The commercial centers market is at an optimal time. Investors are aware that assets offer a ratio between very attractive risk and profitability and we are facing a window of limited opportunity to benefit from these conditions,” He pointed in 2024 Augusto Lobo, Capital Director Markets Retail de Jll Spain. “Again at the radar”. In July the financial firm BNP Paribas Real Estate launched A similar message When talking about Spain. “The shopping centers are again in the radar of investors,” he summed up in Your balance July after remembering that during “a long period” the activity in the sector retail He had focused on other types of premises, such as commercial miles (High Street) or food. The keys to change: good sales and influx figures and “profitability that begin to be attractive.” Throughout the last months they have been published Several balances that They reflectIn fact, shopping centers have thrown out of the sector retailagglutinating a good part of your investment. “In the years before the pandemic it seemed that the segment of physical stores was falling and that the Ecommerce I was going to monopolize the sector as a whole.
