A leading role in privacy, data protection and technology regulation in Costa Rica and the region.

In Costa Rica, the protection of personal data has become a cornerstone of regulatory compliance and business confidence. Supervisory authorities and regulators are stepping up their oversight, whilst new technologies such as generative artificial intelligence, biometrics and the digital economy are posing unprecedented challenges in terms of privacy.

Our team advises local and multinational companies on the implementation of compliance programmes tailored to the Law on the Protection of Individuals with regard to the Processing of Personal Data (LPDP), as well as on the design of strategies for international data transfers, consent management, impact assessments, security incident response and ‘privacy by design’ programmes.
