Recently, an important court decision regarding the Auxílio Brasil program came to light. The court ruled that Caixa Econômica Federal and the Union must pay compensation of R$15,000 to each of the beneficiaries who may have been affected by a personal data leak.
This decision, taken in the first instance, is still being analyzed by the courts and may be subject to changes due to possible legal appeals.

Criteria for receiving compensation
To be eligible for the R$15,000 compensation, the beneficiary must have been affected by the leak of data related to the Auxílio Brasil program.
Thus, the list of beneficiaries eligible to receive this amount is now available, allowing people to check to see if they are entitled to the benefit. Therefore, this compensation seeks to compensate for the damages caused by the leaking of beneficiaries' personal information.
Ongoing legal process
It is important to note that, despite the court ruling, the process is still under review and changes may occur. Therefore, beneficiaries who are on the compensation list must wait for the legal process to be concluded to find out whether they will be entitled to the amount determined.
Therefore, if they are eligible, they will need the support of their own lawyer to continue the process of receiving compensation.
This decision represents a significant step towards data protection and guaranteeing citizens’ rights in Brazil, especially with regard to large-scale government programs such as Auxílio Brasil.
Therefore, those who have suffered from data leaks must be aware of the progress of the process and the next steps to guarantee their rights.
