Privacy Policy
A.Barbosa respects your privacy. This policy explains what personal data we collect through this website, what we use it for and what your rights are, in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR — Regulation (EU) 2016/679) and applicable Portuguese law.
1. Data controller
A.Barbosa, with registered office at Rua Salvador Leite, n.º 57, 4585-801 Astromil, Portugal.
Privacy contact: geral@abarbosa.pt · +351 224 119 490.
2. What data we collect
— Contact form: first name, last name, email, phone number and the content of your message.
— Newsletter: email address.
— Technical data: like any website, the server temporarily logs technical data about visits (IP address, browser type, pages visited and date/time), which is needed for the website to work and stay secure.
We do not intentionally collect special categories of data (such as health data) or data from minors.
3. What we use the data for and on what legal basis
— Replying to contact, information or quotation requests — pre-contractual steps at your request and our legitimate interest in replying to those who contact us.
— Sending the newsletter and marketing communications — your consent, which you may withdraw at any time.
— Keeping the website working and secure — legitimate interest.
— Meeting legal, tax or accounting obligations, where applicable — legal obligation.
4. How long we keep the data
— Contact requests: for as long as needed to reply to and follow up on the request and, at most, 2 years after the last contact, unless it leads to a business relationship.
— Newsletter: until you withdraw your consent or unsubscribe.
— Server technical logs: for a short period, only as long as needed for security.
— Data subject to legal obligations: for the period required by law.
5. Who we share the data with
We do not sell or pass on your data to third parties for marketing purposes. Data may be processed by service providers working on our behalf — for example website hosting, email or newsletter delivery — always under contract, with appropriate safeguards and only for the purposes described here. We may also disclose data to the authorities where required by law.
6. Third-party services on this website
— Google Maps: the Contact page shows a Google map. When the map loads, Google may collect data such as your IP address and use its own cookies, in accordance with Google's privacy policy.
— Google Fonts: the website's typeface is loaded from Google's servers, which receive your IP address for that purpose.
These services may involve transferring data outside the European Union, under the safeguards provided for in the GDPR.
7. Cookies
This website does not use advertising or analytics cookies. It only uses strictly necessary cookies — for example, to keep the administration area session active — and any cookies set by the Google services mentioned above. You can delete or block cookies in your browser settings. If we start using analytics or advertising cookies in the future, we will ask for your consent first.
8. 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 given, without affecting processing carried out before then. To do so, simply write to geral@abarbosa.pt. We will reply within one month at the latest.
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Portuguese Data Protection Authority (CNPD — www.cnpd.pt).
9. Security
We take appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your data against loss, unauthorised access or misuse.
10. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy whenever necessary. The version in force is the one published on this page.
