The term 'unregulated data' has become increasingly significant in both Brazilian and American contexts due to growing concerns about data privacy and protection. In Brazil, discussions about unregulated data intensified after the implementation of LGPD (Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados) in 2020, similar to GDPR in Europe. Companies operating in regulated industries must transition from handling unregulated data to compliant data management practices. The concept is particularly relevant in discussions about digital transformation, AI ethics, and consumer protection.
