In plain language

What this regime says.

Chile — Ley 21.719 (in force from 1 December 2026) gives individuals rights over the personal data organisations hold about them, and sets a deadline for answering.

Who is covered

Individuals whose personal data is processed by an organisation within the reach of Chile.

What you get

A copy of your data, correction, deletion or an opt-out — depending on the right you exercise. Money is rare: see the enforcement section.

Where claims go wrong

  • Sending the request to a support chatbot rather than to the privacy or data-protection contact, so the clock never starts.
  • Not keeping proof of the date you sent it — the whole deadline analysis rests on that date.
  • Assuming a missed deadline means money. In almost every jurisdiction it does not; it means a regulator complaint.

Authority

Every citation,
with its pinpoint.

A claim that cites “EU law” gets filed. A claim that cites Article 7(1)(c) gets answered. These are the exact coordinates this entry rests on.

Sources

Where a figure is indexed, converted or published by a regulator rather than fixed in the instrument, the provenance is recorded separately. Anything marked as a modelled estimate is exactly that — a model, not a statutory number.

What it imposes

Clocks, defences and the ladder.

A rule module builds these while it evaluates, because a limitation period depends on which forum is open to you. What follows is the structure this regime produces — deliberately with no dates and no figures, because those belong to your facts rather than to the law.
