On February 27, 2023, the Brazilian Data Protection Authority
("ANPD") published the Resolution CD/ANPD No. 4,
presenting the long-awaited Dosimetry and Administrative Sanctions
Regulation, in addition to submitting amendments to the Inspection
Process and Sanctioning Administrative Procedure Regulation.
The regulation addresses the application of the provisions of
Articles 52 and 53 of Federal Law No. 13709/18 ("the Brazilian
Data Protection Law" or "LGPD"), which establishes
administrative sanctions that the ANPD may impose after the
inspection and sanctioning process due to non-compliance with the
LGPD.
Its objective is to define the criteria and parameters to be
considered by the ANPD for the application and dosimetry of
sanctions, guaranteeing the right to due process and contradictory
to the supervised processing agents. With its immediate validity,
the ANPD may apply the sanctions provided by the law that lacked
the regulation for its application.
