Information collected

When you interact with us through our services, we may collect personal data and other information as described below:

• If you provide personal data for a specific reason, we may use it for that reason. For example, if you contact us by email (sales@modoareeiro.pt), we may use your data to respond to information requests or to resolve issues. We may also use your personal data and other non-identifiable information to help improve the content and functionality of our website. We may use this information to contact you in the future to inform you about services or content we believe may be of interest to you.
Cookies: We use cookies to store information such as your personal preferences when visiting our website (see our Cookie Policy). You can disable cookies in your browser settings or through antivirus software tools. However, this may affect how you interact with our website or with other websites. For more detailed information, visit: http://www.aboutcookies.org/.
Automatic information: Like many other websites, we collect and use information contained in logs. The information in these logs includes your IP address (internet protocol), your ISP (internet service provider), the browser you used to visit our website (such as Internet Explorer or Firefox), the time of your visit, and the pages you visited on our website.

Temporary storage

The length of time data is stored depends on the purpose for which the information is used. However, there are legal requirements that oblige us to retain certain data for a specific period. Thus, where no specific legal requirement exists, data will be stored and retained only for the period necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or provided, unless otherwise instructed by the client.

Security

We take security measures to protect personal data, including internal reviews of our data collection, storage, and processing practices, and physical security measures to guard against unauthorised access to the systems where we store personal data. However, no internet or email transmission is ever fully secure or error-free. In particular, emails sent to or from our services may not be secure. Therefore, you should take special care in deciding what information you send via email.

Rights

To exercise any of your rights or if you have any questions about how your personal data is processed, please contact us at sales@modoareeiro.pt

Changes to the Privacy Policy

This policy may be changed at any time without prior notice. Please check this policy periodically for any updates. By using our website, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

 

Cookie Policy

This website uses cookies to provide a better user experience for its visitors, as well as to ensure it operates correctly.

 

What is a cookie?

To offer our users a personalised and efficient service, it is necessary to remember and store information about how this website should be used. For this purpose, we use small text files called cookies that contain small amounts of information downloaded to our users’ computers or other devices via a server. Your internet browser then sends these cookies back to the website on each subsequent visit, allowing it to recognise and remember users’ identities, specifically their usage preferences. You can find more detailed information about cookies and how they work [here].

Browsing this website allows the collection of information using cookies and other technologies (e.g. form fields, iframes, tags, scripts, local storage).

This Cookie Policy is part of our Privacy Policy. For more information about us and how we protect users’ information, please refer to our Privacy Policy.

 

Cookies we may use and why

When we use cookies on our website, we may categorise them as follows:

Strictly Necessary Cookies: These are required for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are typically only set in response to actions made by you, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in, or filling in forms.
Analytics and Performance Cookies: These allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our website. They may be set by us or by third parties to help us know which pages or videos are the most and least popular, and see how visitors navigate the site. Learn more about opting out of Google Analytics.
Functional Cookies: These enable the website to provide enhanced functionality and personalisation based on your interactions. They may be set by us or by third parties whose services we have added to our pages.
Advertising and Targeting Cookies: These may be set through our website by our advertising partners, such as Google. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant ads on other websites.
Social Media Cookies: These are set by a range of social media services that we have added to the website to allow you to share our content with your friends and networks. These cookies can track your browsing across other websites and build a profile of your interests. This may affect the content and messages you see on other websites you visit.

 

How long do cookies stay on my device?

The duration a cookie stays on your device depends on whether it is a “persistent” or “session” cookie. A persistent cookie is stored in a web browser and remains valid until its set expiry date unless deleted earlier. A session cookie, on the other hand, is deleted at the end of your web session when the browser is closed.

 

How to control cookies

You can control and manage cookies in several ways. Please be aware that removing or blocking cookies may affect your user experience and limit access to certain areas or features of this website.

Where cookies are not strictly necessary for the operation of our website, we will ask for your consent to use cookies upon your first visit.

You can also change your browser settings to manage and control cookies. More detailed information on how to do this can be found at http://www.aboutcookies.org/.

Any consent to accept or reject cookies applies only to the website where this Cookie Policy is found, and not to other websites or pages that may be linked to it. For more information about how cookies are used on those websites, please refer to their specific cookie and privacy policies.

Email Communications

We may also use tracking technologies to determine whether our visitors have read, clicked on links, or forwarded certain emails sent by us, to assess the relevance of our communications. If users disagree with this practice, they should unsubscribe, as it is not possible to send these emails without active tracking mechanisms. Registered subscribers can update their communication preferences at any time by contacting us at sales@modoareeiro.pt or may unsubscribe by following the instructions in the email we send.

Changes to the Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy may be updated at any time at our discretion. We recommend that users review the Cookie Policy periodically to stay informed about how we manage cookies.
