The Brazilian Data Protection Authority (ANPD) has published Resolution CD/ANPD No. 18, which creates additional rules for the appointment of the Person in Charge (similar, although not equivalent, to the Data Protection Officer under the GDPR).
As background, according to Law No. 13.709/18 (Brazilian Data Protection Law (LGPD)), data controllers must appoint a Person in Charge. The “Person in Charge” has the primary role of serving as a communication liaison between the data controller, data subjects and ANPD, as well as providing training and guidance to the controller’s employees, and complying with any other instructions that controller may give.
