Recently, two delegations of the Superintendence of Industry and Commerce (“SIC”) started <\/span>investigating<\/span><\/a> a company for alleged violations to the Consumer Protection Regulation and the Personal Data Protection Regime.<\/span><\/p>\n The infractions that the Consumer Protection Office is investigating are the following: the provision of misleading information to consumers; quality failures in the service; abusive clauses; not having PQRS attention mechanisms; and not attending the information requirements made by the authority. The Delegation for the Protection of Personal Data is investigating the alleged request for sensitive information without the authorization of the owners or the requirements of the regulation.<\/span><\/p>\n This shows that the SIC is to enforce the rights of individuals; and to make companies strengthen and implement compliance programs in these matters.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”0px||0px||true|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px||true|false” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.olartemoure.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/trademark-nullity.jpeg” alt=”trademark nullity” title_text=”trademark nullity” align=”center” force_fullwidth=”on” _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”|600|||||||” text_text_color=”#000000″ text_font_size=”13px” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n 09\/01\/22 – Litigation and ADR<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||1rem||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n Recently, the Administrative Court of Cundinamarca denied a nullity claim associated with trademark rights, considering that the plaintiff had not complied with the prerequisite of mediation.\u00a0<\/span> [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”0px||0px||true|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px||true|false” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.olartemoure.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/ethics-and-transparency.jpeg” alt=”ethics and transparency” title_text=”ethics and transparency” align=”center” force_fullwidth=”on” _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”|600|||||||” text_text_color=”#000000″ text_font_size=”13px” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n 09\/01\/22 – Compliance<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||1rem||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n The obligation for the entities supervised by the National Superintendence of Health to implement a Business Transparency and Ethics Program has changed.\u00a0\u00a0 It is worth noting that the Health Promoting Entities and Health Insurance Companies, among others, have the obligation to implement the Subsystem of Corruption, Opacity and Fraud Risk management since 2018.

However, the Council of State \u2013court of appeal in these matters\u2013 never considered that discussions regarding industrial property rights were affected by this regulation.
