Why Compliance Matters for Streaming Platforms

Live streaming collects viewer data: IP addresses, device information, viewing behavior, chat messages, and potentially payment data. Processing this data across borders triggers compliance obligations under GDPR (EU), CCPA (California), LGPD (Brazil), POPIA (South Africa), and more.

Non-compliance penalties: Up to €20 million or 4% of global revenue under GDPR.
