Article 182 recognizes the guarantee of Habeas Data for any person whose personal or family data appears in a public or private file, archive or register. It grants the right to access information about oneself or one's property in an expedited and cost-free manner, and, where necessary, to update, rectify or suppress it, and it bars affecting the confidentiality of journalistic sources.
Only the affected person may bring the Habeas Data action, which is heard exclusively by the Constitutional Chamber of the Supreme Court of Justice, without need of a lawyer or formality, verbally or in writing, on any day or hour. The current text of article 182 was introduced by Decreto No. 237-2012, published in La Gaceta No. 33,033 of 24 January 2013, and its ratification, required for a constitutional reform, was published by Decreto No. 10-2013 in La Gaceta No. 33,086 of 27 March 2013.
