Introduction
Digital transformation and innovation mean that human rights that are fundamental for each individual must be respected by controllers and operators using personal data around the world.
Individuals, companies, and governments are being inserted into a new global scenario from which there is no turning back. With this in mind, numerous adjustments, adaptations, and improvements are necessary to preserve the rights of data holders and mitigate the risk of potential violations.
Dânica therefore makes use of existing best practices for Compliance and Digital governance, adhering to the parameters contained in the Brazilian General Data Protection Law (LGPD), the Consumer Defense Code (CDC), and the Brazilian Civil Rights Framework for the Internet.
We seek to foster a culture of data protection throughout all of our commercial relationships and internal processes that is guided by the principles of transparency, purpose, and non-discrimination, among others. For these purposes, Dânica, with support from its Senior Management, has created a Privacy and Data Protection Committee containing practices for training, auditing, a communications channel for data holders, and recommendations for DPOs.
Additionally, there are a wide range of documents providing support and structure to the Compliance and Data Protection Program. Included among these documents is this Privacy Policy, Information Security Policy, Legitimate Interest Assessment (LIA), the Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA), and other policies establishing internal procedures for handling and eliminating personal data.
Through this program, Dânica reaffirms its commitment to authorities, clients, and third parties in general with regards to respecting fundamental rights to privacy, association, and freedom in the processing of all of its personal data.
Sincerely,
Senior Management
