Abstract

[Purpose] To evaluate the role of codes of conduct and rules of good practice provided by the General Data Protection Law (LGPD - Law No. 13,709/2018), from the perspective of Theory of Responsive Regulation, focused on the work developed by Ian Ayres and John Braithwaite, understanding their roles in the development of the regulatory system of personal data.

[Methodology/approach/design] Bibliographic survey on the Theory of Responsive Regulation and on the use of codes of conduct and guidelines of good practices in the governance of personal data. Based on this, verify whether this form of self-regulation meets the criteria and principles of the responsive model.

[Findings] Based on the approach adopted, it was possible to identify that the adoption of codes of conduct and rules of good practice by the regulated parties and the approval of these documents by the National Data Protection Authority are in accordance with the responsive model.
