Colombia's Superintendence of Industry and Commerce (SIC), the country's data protection and market regulator, has ordered the "immediate and definitive closure" of all data processing operations in Colombia for World Foundation (formerly Worldcoin Foundation) and Tools for Humanity Corporation.
The sanction, detailed in Resolution 78798 of October 3, 2025, concludes a seven-month investigation into the companies' practice of collecting sensitive biometric data from thousands of Colombians.
