Spanish term or phrase: amparo constitucional y legal

"Si no existe una relación directa entre la publicidad y el consumo, entonces ¿por qué hacer publicidad?

La producción y comercialización de cerveza es una industria lícita y, como tal, goza del ****amparo constitucional y legal***. La publicidad de estos bienes, es por tanto un esfuerzo legítimo para informar a los consumidores sobre los diferentes tipos y marcas disponibles en el mercado, así como las características intrínsecas y extrínsecas del producto y sus condiciones comerciales."

Gracias... ya no me da la cabeza :(

As the site above suggest (including the first one, from Yale University), the phrase "constitutional rights and privileges" has been used in discussions of the US legal/political system since the early days of the nation's history.

Though "amparo" can be translated as "protection" in the context of law, in this case, the collocation "rights and privileges" may be the best option.

As for "shelter," this is not a good option (in this context).

Suerte, Maria Teresa!
