The Brazilian National Data Protection Authority (“ANPD”) published a document called “Map of Priority Themes”, with the aim of establishing essential themes for the next 2 years.
This document should be used as input for the preparation of governance documents created during the period of its validity and for defining the action priorities of the ANPD’s technical areas.
The themes, therefore, are the following:
- Rights of the data subject – aims to carry out inspection actions, especially guidance and preventive actions, within the scope of data processing carried out by the Public Authorities, digital platforms, the financial sector, and the telecommunications sector.
- Children’s and teenagers’ processing of personal data in the digital environment – aims to carry out inspection actions to safeguard rights and ensure the protection of personal data and the best interests of children and teenagers in the digital environment.
- Artificial intelligence for facial recognition and personal data processing – aims to identify potential risks in the processing of personal data within the scope of facial recognition systems and ensure compliance with the Brazilian General Data Protection Law (“LGPD”) regarding the processing of biometric data.
- Data scraping and data aggregators – aims to verify processing operations to identify the possible need for appropriate measures to adapt to the LGPD.
