Abstract: With the significant advancement of technology, data collection has increased considerably, as it is now present in almost every aspect of everyday life. Alongside this growth, legal certainty and data protection must also keep pace with technological developments. When analyzing these situations and the risks they pose to privacy, security, and the fundamental rights guaranteed by the 1988 Brazilian Federal Constitution, it became necessary to establish specific legal mechanisms to protect users' information and personal data. As a result, the Brazilian General Data Protection Law (Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados Pessoais – LGPD), Law No. 13,709/2018, was enacted to establish principles, rights, and obligations regarding the processing of personal data in Brazil. Furthermore, the law plays an important role in holding companies accountable for violations and failures for which they may be legally liable, ensuring greater security and privacy for data subjects and allowing the digital environment to be properly controlled and regulated.
