The cryptoassets market has been expanding in several extremely promising and attractive new business models in recent years.

Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) trading has inaugurated a new era in the artistic market and opened the possibility for musicians, developers, content producers, and artists from the most diverse areas to negotiate the digital property of their works with fans, collectors or ordinary investors.

In the sports field, clubs, athletes, leagues and federations have been exploiting several possibilities in the cryptoassets market, including Fan Tokens and the tokenization of future receivables, which have already been yielding million-dollar revenues to some of these market players.

We believe that the best approach to LGPD framing should take into account two complementary aspects: on one hand, identifying the material risks imposed by the size, nature, and purpose of each client’s data processing, and, on the other hand, raising awareness on the importance and scope of the topic, through permanent monitoring of its social, political and legislative evolution in Brazil and worldwide. This will allow our clients to develop a critical view and position themselves strategically looking forward.

To this end, we propose the following courses of action:

  1. Consultation. Preliminary analysis on personal data processing, to determine whether or not the client’s conduct complies with LGPD, pointing out risks, solutions and advising on how to comply with the legislation.
  2. Follow-up. Preparing a manual to adapt to the new legislation, with clear, objective, step-by-step instructions, including, if necessary, interaction with the technology development staff, to ensure technical security measures are taken to process personal data.

 

These actions allow taking the first step to build a proper and proportional data protection strategy, tailored to the type, scope, and risk potential of each client processing data.

Our team remains at your disposal to answer any questions and monitor the process of adapting to LGPD.
