Americas Focus: LGPD: Compliance, Enforcement and the Impact on South American Privacy Laws

Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados (LGPD) is Brazil’s federal data privacy law that went into effect on September 18, 2020, with enforcement starting on August 1, 2021.

With Brazil being a key market in Latin America for big US tech companies, the LGPD has been a positive move forward for Brazil’s legal privacy framework.

This panel will discuss how companies can best prepare for compliance with the LGPD as well as its extraterritorial impact.
