YOUR OBLIGATIONS

Eight things LGPD requires.

Transparency & purpose limitation

Art. 6, 9

Processing must have a specific, legitimate purpose disclosed to the data subject. Vague or blanket consent is insufficient.

Data subjects can confirm processing exists and receive full access within 15 days under a simplified procedure.

Right to correct

Art. 18(III)

Data subjects can request correction of incomplete, inaccurate, or outdated personal data.

Anonymisation & blocking

Art. 18(IV)

Data subjects can request anonymisation, blocking, or elimination of unnecessary or unlawful data — an alternative to outright deletion.

Right to delete

Art. 18(VI)

Data subjects can request deletion of consent-based personal data. Other legal bases may justify retention.

Right to portability

Art. 18(V)

Data subjects can request portability of their data to another provider. Mechanics are subject to ongoing ANPD regulation.

Consent withdrawal & objection

Art. 18(IX), 21

Data subjects can withdraw consent at any time or object to processing based on illegitimate grounds.
