Chile’s new pro-consumer law: a sneak peek of the intersection between digital markets and data protection?
Overview
A new pro-consumer law is being introduced in Chile, which introduces significant changes in areas such as the collection and disclosure of personal data. The law modifies the legal guarantee, the right of withdrawal, new duties of information, and SERNAC’s faculties with regard to personal data, and is expected to have a particular impact on e-commerce. The Legal 500 has partnered with Magliona Abogados to provide an in-depth analysis and overview of the pro-consumer law in question (21,398). This webinar will be a must-see event for anyone working on e-commerce and related business sectors in the Digital Market not only in Chile but the wider region. This conversation with key industry insiders is certain to provide insights of great value for anyone wishing to stay ahead of developments in the areas of digital commerce and data protection.
