Multas LGPD por Processamento de Dados Sem Consentimento Válido

3 verified sources

Definition

LGPD enforcement by ANPD has imposed R$ 98 million in fines since 2023. Usage-based billing requires processing personal data (customer IDs, usage logs, IP addresses). Without automated consent validation and data minimization, companies face simple fines (up to 2% annual revenue) or daily penalties (R$ 50,000/day) until compliance is achieved.

Key Findings

  • Financial Impact: R$ 14,400 minimum (small firms); R$ 50,000 daily fine (cumulative); maximum R$ 50,000,000 per violation. Typical mid-market exposure: R$ 500,000–2,000,000 per enforcement action.
  • Frequency: Ongoing; ANPD enforcement accelerating (20+ large companies under investigation as of Jan 2025)
  • Root Cause: Manual billing processes lack automated consent tracking, data retention controls, and breach notification workflows required by LGPD Articles 5, 8, 9, 16.

Why This Matters

The Pitch: Data security software providers in Brasil waste R$ 500,000–50,000,000 annually on LGPD enforcement fines due to billing data processing errors. Automation of consent validation and usage data anonymization eliminates audit risk.
