While maintaining compliance and keeping the company out of legal trouble is usually the responsibility of the corporate compliance officer, each employee needs to take ownership of this related to the work they do. Interviewers want to make sure that you agree with this philosophy and learn about the specific steps you take to achieve this. If this is not part of your current portfolio skills, you should research the topic and incorporate these practices into your work as a technical writer.

"I am very passionate about keeping my organization compliant with the applicable rules and regulations in my work as a technical writer. I take time to understand the regulations under which the company operates and how these may be violated. If there's any question about some content I've created and whether it violates compliance guidelines, I engage with the company compliance officer and get their input. To my knowledge, nothing I've ever created has violated my organization's compliance requirements."
