On February 19, the Argentinean Data Protection Authority ("DPA") enacted a new sanctions regulation (source document in Spanish) implementing fines for the recently approved Do Not Call Registry Law (source document in Spanish). The new sanctions schedule ranges from 1,000 Argentinean pesos to 100,000 Argentinean pesos (US$100–$11,500) depending on the severity of the violation. Actions drawing higher penalties include (i) failure to renew the annual registration of a personal database at the DPA; (ii) processing personal information without the DPA registration; and (iii) disregarding the Do Not Call Registry in a marketing campaign.
