PROTECTION Data is the competent authority in Spain since last year to monitor compliance
prohibiting spam. Both agencies began a long line of mutual cooperation to combat this illegal and abusive practice that is hindering the normal development of the Internet as a fundamental tool of the Information Society.

Within this cooperation is part of the signing of this agreement or Administrative Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) in the English terminology that facilitates the actions of both agencies in their cross-border collaboration.

FTC commissioners, chaired by Deborah Platt Majoras, and the director of the DPA, Jose Luis Pinar, met this day for that purpose at the headquarters of the agency in Washington DC. This agreement is in line with other similar instruments of cooperation that the FTC had previously signed with Canada, Australia, Mexico and United Kingdom.
