GDPR, CPRA, and LGPD Policies
GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation)
For users in the European Union, this Privacy Policy complies with the GDPR. You have additional rights, including:
- The right to data portability
- The right to restrict processing
- The right to object to data processing
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a comprehensive data protection law implemented by the European Union (EU) to enhance and standardize data privacy across member states. It came into effect on May 25, 2018, and applies to any organization that processes the personal data of EU citizens, regardless of the organization’s location. Key features of GDPR include:
- Data Subject Rights: Individuals have several rights under GDPR, such as the right to access their data, the right to rectify incorrect data, the right to have their data erased (right to be forgotten), and the right to data portability, which allows them to transfer their data to another service provider.
- Lawful Basis for Processing: Organizations must have a legitimate reason to process personal data, such as consent, contractual necessity, legal obligation, vital interests, public tasks, or legitimate interests.
- Data Protection by Design and Default: GDPR mandates that data protection measures be integrated into systems and processes from the outset and by default.
- Data Protection Officer (DPO): Certain organizations are required to appoint a DPO to oversee GDPR compliance.
- Breach Notification: Organizations must inform relevant authorities within 72 hours of a data breach that poses a risk to individuals’ rights and freedoms.
- Fines and Penalties: Non-compliance with GDPR can result in hefty fines, up to €20 million or 4% of global annual turnover, whichever is higher.
CPRA (California Privacy Rights Act)
For California residents, this Privacy Policy complies with the CPRA. You have additional rights, including:
- The right to know what personal data is collected
- The right to opt out of the sale of personal data
- The right to non-discrimination for exercising privacy rights
The California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) builds on the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), offering enhanced privacy protections for residents of California. The CPRA came into effect on January 1, 2023, and introduces new rights and requirements. Key features of CPRA include:
- Data Subject Rights: California residents have rights including knowing what personal data is collected, opting out of the sale or sharing of personal data, requesting deletion of personal data, and correcting inaccurate data.
- Sensitive Personal Information: New provisions regulate the use and disclosure of sensitive personal information, such as financial data, precise geolocation, race, ethnicity, and health information.
- Data Minimization and Storage Limitation: Organizations are required to limit the collection, use, and retention of personal data to what is necessary for specified purposes.
- Privacy Risk Assessments and Audits: The CPRA mandates regular risk assessments and audits for businesses engaged in high-risk data processing activities.
- California Privacy Protection Agency (CPPA): A dedicated agency, the CPPA, has been established to enforce CPRA compliance through investigations, audits, and fines.
- Fines and Penalties: Non-compliance with CPRA can result in fines up to $2,500 per violation or $7,500 per intentional violation and violations involving the personal data of minors.
These regulations collectively aim to empower individuals with greater control over their personal data, ensure organizations process data responsibly, and enhance overall data privacy and security standards.
LGPD (Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados)
For users in Brazil, this Privacy Policy complies with the LGPD. You have additional rights, including:
- The right to confirmation of the existence of data processing
- The right to anonymization or blocking of unnecessary data
- The right to information about public and private entities with which we share data
The Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados (LGPD) is Brazil’s data protection law, which mirrors many aspects of the GDPR and aims to protect the personal data of Brazilian citizens. It went into effect on September 18, 2020, and applies to any organization processing personal data in Brazil or of individuals residing in Brazil. Key features of LGPD include:
- Data Subject Rights: Similar to GDPR, LGPD grants individuals rights such as access to their data, correction of inaccurate data, anonymization, blocking or deletion of unnecessary data, and information about entities with whom data is shared.
- Legal Basis for Processing: Organizations must have a valid legal basis for processing personal data, such as consent, compliance with legal obligations, performance of contracts, protection of life, health, or legitimate interests.
- Data Protection Officer (DPO): Organizations must appoint a DPO responsible for overseeing data protection activities and compliance.
- Transparency and Consent: Organizations must clearly inform individuals about the purposes of data collection and obtain explicit consent for processing.
- Data Breach Notification: Organizations are required to promptly notify both the National Data Protection Authority (ANPD) and affected individuals of data breaches.
