Abstract

After several years discussing the creation of a comprehensive data protection law, Brazil finally has its first law that specifically addresses this area -and that will be a game-changer on regulating data processing activities in the country and abroad – in force. Although Brazil's data protection law bears many similarities with the European Union General Data Protection Regulation, it also deviates from its European counterpart in several aspects. This chapter intends to provide an overview of the background relating to laws that carry privacy and data protection provisions in their core and to thoroughly analyze Brazil's new data protection law.
