LGPD will specifically provide on the international transfer of personal data to countries or international organizations. This will be possible in the cases provided for in Article 33, including, among other eight cases, countries that enjoy a certain level of data protection.
To evaluate whether the country of destination has the appropriate degree of data protection, the National Data Protection Authority (ANPD) will take into account some factors such as:
- The general and sectoral rules of the legislation in force in the destination country;
- The nature of the data;
- Compliance with personal data protection principles and holders’ rights provided for in LGPD.
