BRASILIA, Brazil — Brazil’s National Data Protection Authority (ANPD) is now monitoring 18 high-traffic adult websites for compliance with the country’s Digital Statute for Children and Adolescents (Digital ECA), which requires such sites to age-verify users located in Brazil.
In a statement released Friday, the ANPD explained that the goal of this initial monitoring phase is to verify whether site operators are adopting measures to restrict access by children and adolescents, and to collect information and data to support decision-making by the agency.
Direct enforcement actions are not scheduled to commence until January, assuming the ANPD adheres to its previously announced enforcement timeline.
The statement lists 18 websites that are now being monitored, representing 98% of web traffic for adult content in Brazil. The list includes tube sites, creator platforms, a cam site and two escort sites:
- Xvideos.com
- Xvideos.red
- Onlyfans.com
- Pornhub.com
- Xhamster.com
- Xnxx.com
- Socialmediagirls.com
- Sambaporno.com
- Animeshentai.biz
- Hentaistube.com
- Privacy.com.br
- Thehentai.net
- Cameraprive.com
- Hyper.cool
- Shokka.com
- Thisvid.com
- Fatalmodel.com
- Photoacompanhantes.com
Earlier this month, the ANPD launched a complaints page where citizens can report possible violations of the Digital ECA.
