Law 21719 — Personal Data Protection

Prove you comply. Avoid the fines.
Without operational overhead.

Chile's Law 21719 requires you to document consent and the processing of personal data from the source and respond to every ARCO+ request within 30 days with audit-ready evidence. ARCO Legal guides you on both fronts: Preventive compliance —mapping, registry, policies, DPIA, DPA— and ARCO+ request management with deadlines, owners, legal responses, traceability and audit-ready evidence.

Does your company already know how to respond when the first ARCO+ request arrives?

Retail
Healthcare
Fintech
Education
SaaS
Logistics

The problem isn't the law.
It's not having a process.

Most Chilean companies will receive their first ARCO+ request without knowing who is responsible, where the data is, or that the clock is already ticking.

No intake channel

The request arrives via email, WhatsApp or the generic contact form. Nobody knows the 30-day clock has already started.

Data scattered across systems

The data subject requests access. Your team hunts through the CRM, HR tools and Google Drive. Hours of manual work and the risk of an incomplete response.

Nobody controls the deadline

The deadline expires without anyone noticing. A single out-of-time response is an independent infraction in front of the Agency.

ARCO Legal closes all three fronts.

From request to response.
Without anything falling through the cracks.

What you need to know
before you start.

What is an ARCO+ request?

An ARCO+ request is the legal mechanism by which a person exercises their rights of Access, Rectification, Cancellation, Opposition, Portability and Blocking over their personal data. Law 21719 requires every organization processing personal data of individuals in Chile to have a formal process to receive and respond to them.

Which companies must comply with Law 21719?

Every organization processing personal data of individuals in Chile is required, regardless of size or sector: retail, healthcare, fintech, education, logistics, SaaS, and any business that collects emails, RUTs, phone numbers or other identifying data.

What is the deadline to respond to an ARCO+ request?

Law 21719 sets a maximum of 30 calendar days from receipt of the request. Missing this deadline can be considered an infraction and lead to administrative sanctions.

What fines does Law 21719 impose for non-compliance?

Law 21719 sets a scale by severity: minor offenses up to 5,000 UTM (~$350M), serious up to 10,000 UTM (~$700M), and very serious up to 20,000 UTM (~USD 1.4M). Repeat offenders can be sanctioned with 2–4% of annual revenue. Each request not answered in time is an independent infraction.

How long does it take to set up ARCO Legal?

Initial setup takes less than 10 minutes: enter your company details, define the responsible users and get the public form URL. That same day, data subjects can start submitting requests.

Do I need to hire lawyers to comply with Law 21719?

No. ARCO Legal automates the processes the law requires: intake of requests, calculation of deadlines in calendar days, assignment to owners and logging of responses. No ongoing legal counsel is required to operate the system.

Where is requester data stored?

Data is stored on cloud servers with encryption in transit and at rest. For companies in regulated sectors (banking, healthcare, government) that require data to reside in their own infrastructure, ARCO Legal offers on-premise deployment as part of the Enterprise plan.

Who enforces compliance with Law 21719?

The Personal Data Protection Agency is the autonomous and independent body in charge of supervising and sanctioning non-compliance with Law 21719. It has sanctioning powers from the first day of enforcement and may initiate investigations on its own or following data subject complaints.
