For children (<18) → parental/guardian consent required (Art. 14)
Map each processing activity to one Art. 7 basis
Document basis in RoPA and privacy notice
If using legitimate interest → conduct balancing test; document
2. LGPD Gap Assessment

Assess each processing activity against Art. 6 principles and Art. 7/11 bases
Evaluate data subject rights fulfilment capability (Art. 17–22)
Review DPO appointment and DPO publication (Art. 41)
Check RoPA existence and completeness (Art. 37)
