WHO IS IN CHARGE OF DATA PROCESSING?

The entity responsible for the treatment of personal data is “LUCRIVOLUME”, which determines the purposes and means of their treatment.

WHAT TYPES OF PERSONAL DATA ARE PROCESSED?

“LUCRIVOLUME”, within the scope of its activities, processes personal data necessary for the provision of services and/or supply of products, processing data such as name, telephone number and e-mail address, according to information provided by the owners of personal data.

Personal data may also be processed for marketing purposes or for the promotion of offers of goods and services from “LUCRIVOLUME” if the data subject has consented to this.

In case of prior consent of the holder, this may be withdrawn at any time, without the lawfulness of the processing carried out based on the consent previously given being compromised.

WHEN AND HOW DO WE COLLECT YOUR PERSONAL DATA?

“LUCRIVOLUME” collects your personal data, namely by telephone, in writing, through its website, ensuring, whenever necessary, the previous consent of the holder of the personal data.

Some personal data is indispensable to the execution of the contract, without which “LUCRIVOLUME” may not provide the product or service in question.

In case the owner of the personal data is not a Customer/User of “LUCRIVOLUME”, his/her personal data will only be treated when they are made available, in which case the rules of this Policy will apply.

The personal data collected may be processed by computer in an automated or non-automated way, ensuring in all cases the strict compliance with the personal data protection legislation, being stored in specific databases created for that purpose and, under no circumstances, the data collected shall be used for purposes other than those for which they were collected, or consent was given by the data owner.

WHO ARE THE RECIPIENTS OF THE PERSONAL DATA?

Without prejudice to the recipients indicated throughout this Policy, “LUCRIVOLUME” may communicate the Customer’s/User’s personal data with the purpose of complying with legal obligations, namely to police, judicial, tax and regulatory entities.

WHAT ARE THE PURPOSES OF THE PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA AND RESPECTIVE LEGAL GROUNDS?

In general, the personal data collected is based on and intended for the management of the contractual and commercial relationship, the provision of the contracted services, the adequacy of the services to the needs and interests of the Customer/User, namely for the purposes of access to specific features of the services, information and marketing actions.

Additionally, personal data may also be processed for the purpose of complying with legal obligations.

FOR HOW LONG DO WE KEEP YOUR PERSONAL DATA?

The period of time during which personal data is stored and retained varies according to the purpose for which the information is processed.

In fact, there are legal requirements that oblige us to retain data for a minimum period of time. Thus, and whenever there is no specific legal requirement, the data will be stored and kept only for the minimum period necessary for the pursuit of the purposes that motivated their collection or their subsequent processing, under the terms defined by law.

WHAT ARE YOUR RIGHTS AS A DATA OWNER?

As owners of personal data, Clients/users are guaranteed, at any time, the right to access, rectify, update, limit and delete their personal data (except for data that are indispensable for the provision of services to “LUCRIVOLUME” or to comply with legal obligations to which the person responsible for the treatment is subject), the right to oppose the use of such data for commercial purposes by “LUCRIVOLUME” and to withdraw consent, without this affecting the lawfulness of the treatment carried out under such consent, as well as the right to data portability.

HOW CAN YOU ACCESS, RECTIFY, UPDATE, LIMIT, DELETE, OPPOSE THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA, OR REMOVE CONSENT?
