Essential Guide on Personal Data Protection in Chile and Nicaragua

The Essential Guide on Personal Data Protection in Chile and Nicaragua presents a structured analysis of the rules that regulate the processing of personal data in both jurisdictions, considering both the constitutional framework and the specific legislation in force in each country.

The document addresses the main areas of regulatory compliance, including the duties of companies, the rights of data subjects, the processing of sensitive data, the relationship with data processors, the management and notification of security incidents, as well as impact assessments and other good practices aimed at risk mitigation.

This publication was jointly prepared by the specialised teams of ECIJA Chile and ECIJA Nicaragua, reflecting the collaborative work between both offices and the firm's commitment to offer coherent and practical legal solutions aligned with international standards on privacy, regulatory compliance and personal data management.
