About LGPD

What is LGPD?

From online shopping to social networks, from hospitals to banks, from schools to theaters, from hotels to public bodies, from advertising to technology: you can be sure, the General Law for the Protection of Personal Data (LGPD) affects different sectors and services , and to all of us Brazilian men and women, whether as individuals, companies or governments. Here, we help you understand your rights as a citizen, or your obligations, if you are responsible for databases of people.


Fundamentals of the LGPD General Data Protection Law

The General Law for the Protection of Personal Data (LGPD) establishes important and mandatory guidelines for the collection, processing and storage of personal data. It was inspired by the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which came into force in 2018 in the European Union, bringing great impacts to companies and consumers.


In Brazil, LGPD (Law No. 13,709, of 8/14/2018) entered into force on September 18, 2020, representing an important step for Brazil.


As a result, we have become part of a group of countries that have specific legislation for the protection of their citizens' data.


Faced with current cases of misuse, commercialization and data leakage, the new rules guarantee the privacy of Brazilians, in addition to avoiding trade barriers with other countries.

The legislation is based on several values and has the following main objectives:

    Ensure the right to privacy and protection of users' personal data, through transparent and secure practices, guaranteeing fundamental rights.


    Establish clear rules on the processing of personal data.


    Strengthen the security of legal relationships and the trust of the holder in the processing of personal data, guaranteeing free initiative, free competition and the defense of commercial and consumer relations.



Promote competition and free economic activity, including data portability.
