4. Purposes of the Treatment of Personal Data, Legal Basis for Treatment and Conservation Periods

The RC addresses the personal data of the data owners for various reasons, justified by the data protection laws applicable in the European Union and in Portugal.

The RC addresses the personal data of the data owners for the following purposes and based on the following legal bases:

  • Right of Access

Data owners may at any time contact the RC and request confirmation that their personal data are being processed and, if so, be informed of: (i) the categories of personal data in question; (ii) the purposes of processing your data; (iii) the respective storage period or criteria used to set it; (iv) their rights and the manner in which they are exercised; (v) the origin of the data relating to they; (vi) the existence of automated decisions, including the definition of profiles.

The RC may only provide the information of the data owners and not personal data about other persons. In addition, if access may adversely affect the rights of another person, it may not be possible for RC to provide them.

If the data holder so requests, the RC will send a copy of their personal data in the treatment phase, in electronic form. If other copies are requested, RC reserves the right to demand the payment of a fee equivalent to the administrative costs incurred to satisfy the request.

  • Right to Erase

Also known as "the right to be forgotten", it allows the data holder to request the deletion or removal of their personal data when there is no compelling reason for the RC to continue to use them. The right to erase is not absolute because the RC may have the right or the obligation to withhold information, as for example when it is subject to a legal obligation or has other valid reason to retain it.

  • Right of Rectification

Whenever they find that the personal data being processed are out of date, incomplete or incorrect, the data owners may request the RC to be corrected as soon as possible.

  •  Right of Portability

The data owners also have the rights to: (i) receive from the RC the personal data that concern them, in a format commonly used and automatically read; (ii) to transmit such data to third parties unrelated to RC, under its sole responsibility; and / or (iii) request RC to transmit such data to third parties. The right to portability covers only the data for which the holder gave consent to be processed, data relating to a contract in which the holder is a party or if the treatment is performed by automated means.

The RC reserves the right to refuse requests for portability whenever they impair the rights and freedoms of third parties, or conflict with any legal requirement.

If you agree, the data subject may receive marketing communications via e-mail, postal mail, telephone contact and SMS.

Consent for the processing of personal data for marketing and commercial communication purposes may be withdrawn at any time, although this right to withdraw consent does not compromise the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the prior consent given or the subsequent processing of the same data, based on another legal basis, such as execution of a contract in which the data holder is a party, or for pre-contractual procedures at the request of the data subject and compliance with legal obligations to which the RC is subject.nIf you wish to withdraw your consent, the data subject can contact us for the contacts indicated in this Policy.

In certain situations, the data owner has the right to "block" or to suppress the continued use of the data. When treatment is limited, RC may still retain the information of data owners, but can not continue to use it.

The data owner may request limitation of the treatment of his data for an indefinite time, when he wishes to suspend treatment, but keep his data. This may occur when:

1. The data owner contests the accuracy of the data, the treatment being limited for a period of time that allows the RC to verify the accuracy of the data, or

2. The data owner is awaiting response to a request to oppose the processing.

When a treatment is limited, personal data will only be processed again if the data owner gives their consent, except for specific treatments contemplated by law. The RC guarantees that the holder of the data that requested the limitation of his data is informed before the limitation to said treatment is annulled. The RC reserves the right to limit the processing of data of the holders when it does not need it, committing itself to keep the data for the period of retention. The RC guarantees that the holder of the data that has requested the limitation of its data is informed before its annulment.

1. For reasons relating to your particular situation, at any time, opposing the processing of any personal data relating to you based on legitimate interests.
