The Catalan Data Protection Authority has launched the project 'Who are you? Data that talk about you', to raise awareness among citizens, through fun and educational activities, about the importance of privacy in a digital world. Thus, he has designed new materials, shows, games, stories and workshops for children, young people and adults, to spread the culture of privacy. These activities will be carried out in the library network, with the support of Public Libraries of Catalonia.
The aim is that this project contributes to promoting a critical and constructive view on the control that people must maintain with respect to their personal data.
