What this law does
Drafted with AI from the cited sources under the direction of UnGovr staff. UnGovr holds editorial responsibility for this page.
Iniciativa 6105 would enact Guatemala's first general personal-data-protection statute, naming as its object the principles, rights, duties, and procedures governing the protection of personal data by any natural or legal person, public or private, for profit or not, that processes personal data.
It builds on the internationally recognized ARCO rights (access, rectification, cancellation, and opposition) and defines terms including base de datos, custodio de la base de datos, bloqueo de datos, and consentimiento. Deputy José Alejandro De León Maldonado presented the bill to the plenary, which referred it to the Comisión de Transparencia y Probidad for study and opinion; it has not been approved and remains pending.
