We do not use your data for marketing, nor do we make automated decisions based on it.

  • Technical email log: messages sent through the forms are kept in the sending system for 14 days, for error control.

5. Who we share the data with

We do not sell or transfer your data to third parties for commercial purposes. Data may be processed on our behalf, under contract, by the providers of website hosting and email services, and by Google (Google Analytics), who are bound to ensure its confidentiality and security. We may also disclose it to the authorities where required by law.

6. Cookies and third-party services

When you visit the website, you are asked to consent to any cookies that are not strictly necessary. Without your consent, only technical cookies are used: one that remembers the language you have chosen (pll_language) and one that stores your consent choices (cookieyes-consent).

If you accept the “Estatística” (statistics) category, we use Google Analytics to understand, in aggregate, how the website is used (for example, pages visited and time spent). Google may set its own cookies (_ga, _ga_*) and transfer data outside the European Union.

The contact page includes a Google Maps map, which is only loaded after you give your consent. From then on, Google may collect data such as your IP address and set its own cookies.

This processing by Google is governed by the Google Privacy Policy. You can change or withdraw your consent at any time using the cookie icon in the bottom left corner of the screen. The cookies used are described in the Cookie Policy.

7. Your rights

You may at any time request access to your data, its rectification or erasure, restriction of or objection to processing and data portability, and withdraw any consent you have given, without affecting processing already carried out. To exercise these rights, contact us at geral@automoldes.com.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Portuguese data protection authority, the Comissão Nacional de Proteção de Dados (CNPD) – www.cnpd.pt.

8. Security

The website uses an encrypted connection (HTTPS), and access to the data received is restricted to the people who need it for the purposes stated.
