    {
      "question": "What are the legal penalties for non-compliant agencies in Thailand?",
      "answer": "Non-compliance can result in administrative fines of up to 5 million Baht under the PDPA, civil class-action lawsuits from affected consumers, and potential criminal liabilities for the agency's executive directors."
