Overview

Use this template to record the LGPD right exercised, requester verification, searches, response form, deadline, decision, action, exception, review, and delivery. For confirmation or access, choose an immediate simplified response or a within the Article 19 period.

Section 1

How should an LGPD DSAR Response Template workflow run under the Brazil LGPD?

Use one response record for the request, but decide each requested right separately. Confirm the controller, requester or representative, verification method, requested processing, systems searched, operators consulted, right exercised, result, legal or factual limitation, response form, due date, reviewer, and delivery channel.

covers confirmation, access, correction, conditional anonymization, blocking or deletion, portability subject to ANPD regulation, consent-based deletion subject to Article 16, sharing information, consent information and revocation, and objection where the LGPD has been breached. separately covers review of decisions based solely on automated processing that affect the data subject.

  • Do not disclose personal data until identity or authority is sufficiently verified through a proportionate process.
  • State whether each item is fulfilled, partially fulfilled, refused, redirected, or pending a named dependency.
  • If the recipient is not the responsible processing agent, respond immediately and identify the agent where possible.
  • Use clear language and a secure electronic or printed delivery method appropriate to the request.
Section 2

What fields should the LGPD DSAR Response Template capture?

For confirmation and access, the response must choose the Article 19 form: an immediate simplified answer or a within 15 days. The complete declaration should state the data's origin, absence of a record where relevant, processing criteria, and purpose, while protecting commercial and industrial secrets.

For other rights, record the applicable rule and an internal due date rather than presenting the 15-day access period as universal. Qualifying small processing agents have separate timing rules, including double time for the complete declaration and up to 15 days for the simplified declaration.

  • Request block: controller, requester, representative authority, protocol, receipt date, verification, channel, requested rights, processing scope, and preferred format.
  • Search block: systems, archives, operators, data categories, purposes, sources, criteria, sharing, retention, and search owner.
  • Response block: decision for each item, data or action supplied, limitation and reason, Article 16 retention basis where used, response date, reviewer, and contact route.
  • Evidence block: disclosed copy, correction or deletion proof, downstream-agent instruction, consent change, delivery proof, exception approval, and follow-up.
  • Rights-specific block: for correction, identify the field and authoritative replacement; for deletion, distinguish unlawful or excessive data from consent-based deletion and Article 16 conservation; for objection, identify the alleged LGPD breach; for review, identify the solely automated decision, its effect, review result, and explanation supplied.
Section 3

How should teams review and improve the LGPD DSAR Response Template workflow?

Before sending, check that the response answers every requested item, contains only the requester's personal data, protects another person's rights and protected secrets, and explains any partial result. Keep the original request, verification, searches, analysis, response, disclosed copy, action evidence, and delivery proof.

When the controller corrects, anonymizes, blocks, or deletes data, it must inform agents with which it shared the data so they can repeat the action, unless communication is proven impossible or involves disproportionate effort. Record the recipients contacted and the exception analysis.

Use a separate decision row for each requested right and data set. A response may therefore be fulfilled for correction, partially fulfilled for access because another person's data was separated, and refused for deletion because a documented Article 16 conservation ground applies. State the facts and legal reason for each outcome.

  • Do not treat consent withdrawal as retroactively invalidating earlier processing; assess future processing and deletion separately.
  • Escalate legal holds, another person's data, disputed identity, unclear controller status, protected secrets, and deletion conflicts.
  • Give the requester a protocol or reference that can prove the prior attempt if a later ANPD petition is needed.
  • Review recurring delays, incomplete searches, operator failures, and repeated refusal grounds.
