Abstract

Social media has revolutionized business marketing, offering brands a dynamic platform to engage with consumers, build brand awareness, and drive sales. However, alongside its business advantages, social media marketing presents legal challenges that companies must navigate to ensure compliance with advertising regulations, data privacy laws, and intellectual property rights. Regulatory frameworks such as the Digital Personal Data Protection Act (DPDP), General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidelines impose strict obligations on businesses to safeguard consumer rights, prevent deceptive marketing practices, and ensure transparency in online interactions. Additionally, influencer marketing and targeted advertising must adhere to disclosure requirements and ethical advertising standards. This study examines the intersection of business growth and legal obligations in social media marketing, emphasizing the importance of a compliance-driven approach for long-term success. By integrating legal risk management into their digital strategies, businesses can maximize opportunities while mitigating regulatory risks, ensuring sustainable and responsible growth in the evolving digital landscape.
