In most cases we get this personal data via intermediary source, such as corresponding service provider. The intermediary may also act as both the recipient and source of personal data, in which case we both obtain personal data from and transfer processed data back to the intermediary.
For personal data transferred via such intermediary, data's source or recipient may be attributed either to you or intermediary. In many cases, under the contract with the intermediary, personal data is considered as delivered to or originating from you rather than directly to or from the intermediary. However, to ensure transparency, we also identify the intermediary as a source or recipient for any personal data transferred through intermediary, so you are fully aware of the intermediary role played in the transfer of your personal data. Additionally, intermediary may collect, processes, and remain the sole source and recipient of certain essential personal data related to your use of the intermediary service.

In addition to third-party sources and recipients of your personal data identified elsewhere in this Notar, the Plataforma may include content and software loaded from third-party servers, referred to as "third-party includes". Example of such includes is advertising that we may show on the Plataforma. We do not control operation of such third-party includes and they may collect and process your personal data on behalf of their respective third-party controllers. Such includes, or this section of the Notar, refer you to those third parties to allow you to get information about personal data processing, if any, by those third parties.
In addition, this section of the Notar is to list third parties that may similarly collect and process your personal data in relation to our operation as business/orgaisation, not only operation of website.
Automated individual decision-making, including profiling
We do not subject you to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you, unless such decision is necessary for entering into, or performance of, a contract between the you and us, or you have explicitly consented to such decision.
Transfers of personal data to third countries
As we are incorporated in United Kingdom, we may need to transfer your personal data to us and service providers located outside of the European Economic Area (EEA). This transfer is necessary to allow you enter into the contract with us and allow us to perform contract with you providing the Plataforma and Serviços, and fulfill our contractual obligations to you, as well as for other purposes mentioned in this Notice. Your personal data may be transferred to country outside of EEA only for specific, clearly defined purposes, such as to provide the Plataforma and Serviços, process payments, or communicate with you. Such transfers are carried out only when necessary and in compliance with Lei de proteção de dados pessoais.
Also note that these transfers of personal data may involve risks, as the destination country might not offer the same level of personal data protection as the EU/EEA, in which case there is no adequacy decision by European Commission for such country, and due to the absence of appropriate safeguards for specific personal data transferred. In particular, there is no adequacy decision by European Commission for Ukraine, and in our case appropriate safeguards (such as SCCs, see below) are not available for all categories of personal data.
These risks could include limited or no enforceable rights concerning your data, less robust legal protections against government access or surveillance, and fewer avenues for legal recourse in case of misuse.
In some cases, we may rely on third-party service providers (such as messaging and payment service providers) located in EEA as sources and/or recipients of your personal data. Where applicable, we may use Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) to ensure that any transfer of your personal data between us and these providers complies with Lei de proteção de dados pessoais. SCCs are legally binding contractual terms designed to safeguard your personal data even in countries that may not offer the same level of protection as the EEA. If we use SCCs, information on how to obtain a copy or access the relevant safeguards will be be included in this Notice here. Currently we use no SCCs in our contracts.
In the absence of an adequacy decision, or of appropriate safeguards, including SCCs, a transfer or a set of transfers of personal data to a third country take place only on one of the following conditions (legal bases):
-
Transfers based on your consent
You now have been informed of the possible risks of such transfers for you due to the absence of an adequacy decision and appropriate safeguards. We propose and request your explicit consent for transfer of your personal data outside of the European Economic Area (EEA). You will be given the opportunity to explicitly provide this specific consent on the Plataforma. You have the right to withdraw this consent at any time by contacting us, but please note that this will remove your legal ability to continue using the Plataforma and Serviços, unless such use is allowed by another legal basis (including bases listed next or otherwise mentioned in this Notice).
-
Transfers necessary for the performance of a contract
The transfer is necessary for the performance of a contract between you and us (for example, for the purchase of Serviços) or the implementation of pre-contractual measures taken at your request.
The transfer is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract concluded in your interest between us and another natural or legal person (for example, service provider).
You have the right to request more information on the specific safeguards in place for data transfers, and to object to certain transfers, subject to legal limitations.
Personal data of children
Where the child is below the age of 16 years, we offer the Plataforma and Serviços to the holder of parental responsibility over the child. We do not offer the Plataforma and Serviços directly to, do not permit using the Plataforma to and neither collect nor otherwise process personal data of a child where the child is less than 16 years old.
We do not offer you Serviços, do not permit you using the Plataforma, and neither collect nor otherwise process your personal data, if you are less than 16 years old. If you are less than 16 years old, you must stop using the Plataforma and Serviços immediately and never submit any of your personal data to us.
EU member states may provide by law for a lower age for those purposes provided that such lower age is not below 13 years.
Right to lodge a complaint
If you are dissatisfied with our privacy policy or have any complaints about how we handle your personal data, we encourage you to inform us directly so that we can address your concerns.
When we receive a complaint, we record the information you provide based on your consent and use it solely to resolve your complaint. If we determine that your complaint is unfounded or vexatious, we reserve the right not to correspond further on the matter.
In the event that a dispute cannot be resolved between us, we invite you to engage with us in good faith through mediation or arbitration before pursuing other avenues.
Please be aware that if you are dissatisfied with how we process your personal data, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the relevant personal data protection authority. We would, however, appreciate the opportunity to resolve the matter with you directly before you contact the authorities.
