Navigating Data Privacy in LATAM: Laws, Trends, and Compliance Strategies

Latin America is experiencing a significant transformation in data privacy regulation, with countries across the region advancing their own frameworks modelled on global best practices while addressing unique regional challenges. From Brazil’s LGPD (Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados) to Mexico’s Federal Law on the Protection of Personal Data Held by Private Parties and emerging bills in countries like Chile, Argentina, and Colombia, the LATAM privacy ecosystem is evolving rapidly.

This complex landscape is shaped by a growing emphasis on individual rights, cross-border data flow considerations, and alignment with international standards like the GDPR. Additionally, LATAM countries are facing increasing pressure to regulate emerging technologies, including AI, amidst a backdrop of varying enforcement capabilities and digital infrastructure maturity.

How are LATAM data privacy laws developing in 2025? What lessons can be learned from recent enforcement actions and draft regulations? How can organizations operating in or with LATAM countries build a robust, regionally tailored privacy compliance strategy?

Our expert panel will demystify LATAM’s dynamic data protection landscape, offering insights on how to navigate diverse legal frameworks and anticipate upcoming changes.

This webinar will review:

• The current state of data privacy regulations across key LATAM jurisdictions
• How Brazil’s LGPD and other national frameworks are being enforced and evolving
• Regional trends in AI governance, FinTech, cross-border data transfers, and cybersecurity
• Practical strategies for building a LATAM-compliant privacy roadmap for 2025

This webinar is eligible for 1 CPE credit.
