divulgación no autorizada
Definition
Divulgación no autorizada means sharing private or confidential information without permission from the person or company that owns it. This could involve leaking trade secrets, sharing a customer's personal data with outsiders, or revealing confidential business information to competitors. The law treats this seriously because it can cause real financial and reputational harm to the party whose information was exposed.
Example
If one of your employees emails your client list to a competitor, that act of sharing protected business information without your consent is a classic case of divulgación no autorizada.
Watch Out
Make sure your employment contracts and non-disclosure agreements clearly spell out what information is confidential and what consequences employees face if they share it without permission.
