Peru published Supreme Decree 115-2025-PCM in El Peruano on 9 September 2025, approving the regulation of Law 31814. It bans uses such as manipulating decisions, mass surveillance without legal basis and real-time biometric identification in public spaces where it affects fundamental rights, and lists high-risk uses including hiring and dismissal of workers and assessments in the education of children. Duties phase in on staggered timelines by sector and company size, and the regulation takes effect on 22 January 2026.
