5. Legal Basis for Processing

We process personal data only where an applicable legal basis exists under the GDPR.

​

Depending on the circumstances, these legal bases may include:

  • Pre-contractual measures and contractual necessity: when processing is necessary to respond to a request, prepare a proposal, or perform a contract.

  • Legal obligations: when processing is necessary to comply with applicable legal or regulatory requirements.

  • Legitimate interests: when processing is necessary for legitimate business purposes, provided those interests do not override your rights and freedoms.

  • Consent: when you have given consent for a specific purpose, such as certain non-essential cookies or marketing activities where consent is required.

​

Where processing relies on consent, you may withdraw it at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before consent was withdrawn.

​

We seek to ensure that personal data is shared only to the extent necessary and that appropriate confidentiality and data protection safeguards are in place.

​

Where a partner processes personal data on our behalf, appropriate contractual arrangements will be implemented where required by law.

Where a partner independently determines the purposes and means of processing, that partner may have its own privacy obligations.

We do not sell personal data to third parties.

7. International Data Transfers

Personal data may be processed or stored outside Portugal where we use service providers or business partners located in other countries.

Where personal data is transferred outside the European Economic Area, we will ensure that the transfer complies with applicable data protection requirements.

Depending on the circumstances, this may involve an adequacy decision adopted by the European Commission or appropriate safeguards, such as Standard Contractual Clauses.

Further information about relevant safeguards may be requested using the contact details provided in this Policy.

8. Data Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. Retention periods depend on the nature of the information and the purpose of processing.

​

For example:

  • General inquiries: retained for as long as necessary to respond to the inquiry and manage any resulting follow-up.

  • Client and contractual information: retained for the duration of the business relationship and any additional period required for legal, accounting, or contractual purposes.

  • Legal and regulatory records: retained for the applicable statutory period.

  • Marketing information: retained until consent is withdrawn or an objection is received, where applicable, subject to any necessary suppression records.

  • Technical logs: retained according to operational, security, and legal requirements.

When personal data is no longer necessary, it will be deleted or anonymized, where appropriate.
