Your privacy is very important to the Maria Cecilia Souto Vidigal Foundation (“Foundation”). Accordingly, we have developed a Privacy Policy in accordance with the General Data Protection Act (Law No. 13718/2018), which provides for how we collect, use, disclose, transfer, store, and delete your information on our Websites.
Please check our privacy practices and let us know if you have any questions.
1. What and why we collect User Information
Please be advised that we collect some data from Users of our Websites to provide an informational service, and this policy describes how this is done.
You may be required to provide timely personal information at any time while you are contacting the Foundation or browsing its Web sites. The Foundation may share this information and use it in accordance with this Privacy Policy. The Foundation may also combine this information with other information to improve our services, information, and content.
2. What personal information do we collect
When you register through our Websites, you become a Registered Foundation User, and we may obtain some necessary and required information, including your name, e-mail address, area of expertise, and interest group (third sector, entrepreneur, student, others).
3. How we use your personal information
We may process your information for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy with your consent, to comply with legal obligations to which the Foundation is subject, or when we believe that disclosing it is necessary for the legitimate interests of the Foundation or third parties.
The information we collect (in some cases, in conjunction with non-personal information) enables us to keep you up-to-date and to provide Users with better use of our websites. For example:
Communication. We may use your personal information to send newsletters, as well as educational materials and dissemination for Foundation activities. If you no longer wish to participate in our mailing list, you may opt-out at any time via the unsubscribe link found at the bottom of the email that is sent or by submitting an unsubscribe request by to e-mail fmcsv@fmcsv.org.br.
From time to time, we may use the information you provide to send important notices, such as policy and condition announcements. In these cases, as the information is important to your interaction with the Foundation, you may not choose not to receive it.
Aggregate Data. We may also obtain information about the User activities on our site. This information is aggregated and used to help us understand which parts of our websites are of most interest, to improve your security, and to improve our content. Aggregate data is considered non-personal information for purposes of this Privacy Policy.
Statistical data. We also use the information collected for study and statistical purposes and to improve all content provided by the Foundation – such as articles, books, brochures, presentations, scholarly papers, newsletters, videos – (“Content”), as per preferences and audience profiles. Aggregate data is considered non-personal information for purposes of this Privacy Policy.
4. Collection and use of non-personal information
We also collect data that, independently analyzed, does not allow direct association with a specific individual and is considered non-personal information. We may collect, use, transfer, and disclose such non-personal information for any purpose and the purposes set forth in this Privacy Policy.
If we combine non-personal information with personal information, the combined information will be treated as personal information as long as that information remains combined.
5. Cookies and other technology
Foundation Websites, email messages, and Content may use "cookies" and other technology such as pixel tags. This technology helps us better understand User behavior by telling us which parts of our websites people have visited. We treat information obtained through cookies and other technology as non-personal information. However, to the extent that the Internet Protocol (IP) addresses or similar identifiers are considered personal information by local law, we will also treat these identifiers as personal information. Similarly, to the extent that non-personal information is combined with personal information, we treat the combined information as personal information for this Privacy Policy.
If you wish to block cookies, please refer to your browser guidelines.
As with most websites, we get some information automatically and store it in log files. This information includes IP addresses, browser type and language, Internet service provider (ISP), lookup and exit pages, operating system, date and time information, and click sequence data.
We use this information to understand and analyze preferences, administer the site, learn about User behavior on the site, and obtain demographic information about our user base in general. The Foundation may use this information in our outreach services.
In some of our email messages, we use a "click-through URL" linked to the Foundation's website content. When Users click one of these URLs, Users are sent to a different web server before reaching the landing page on our site. We monitor this click-through data to understand the interest in certain topics and to evaluate the effectiveness of communications with our Users. If you prefer not to be monitored this way, do not click text or image links in email messages.
Pixel tags allow us to send email messages in formats that Users can read and tell us whether or not the email has been opened. We may use this information to reduce or eliminate messages sent to Users.
At any time, if you no longer wish to receive future contacts via email, request to unsubscribe.
6. Information Storage
The information we collect is stored in a reliable system and is usually used by technology companies located in Brazil.
In hiring these systems, the Foundation always seeks companies that employ best practices in the security of their information storage, establishing contracts that do not violate the privacy definitions provided in this Policy.
How long is the information stored?
The Foundation stores the information it collects for as long as necessary for the purposes set forth in our Terms and Conditions of Use and this Privacy Policy, respecting the data retention period determined by applicable law.
If you request the deletion of your registration, we will take all necessary steps to, within a reasonable period from the date of the request, promote the definitive deletion of data and information made available and collected by the User, in compliance with current legislation.
In some cases, we may retain your information even if you delete your account, such as in the case of mandatory record-keeping under applicable law, if there is an unresolved issue related to your account (such as a complaint), or if necessary for our legitimate interests, such as fraud prevention and security enhancement for our Users.
7. Disclosure to third parties
Service Providers. We may use third parties and individuals to perform Website-related activities, including, but not limited to, service maintenance, database management, data analysis, and feature enhancement. These companies or individuals have or may have access to User information to perform tasks/routines on our behalf and are required not to use or disclose such information for any other purpose.
Social Networking Services. We allow Users to connect their social networking services accounts to our websites. Users may, at their discretion, share our Content on their social networks, provided that they comply with the conditions and obligations set forth in the Terms and Conditions of Use, notably with respect to the related Intellectual Property Rights and which fall within the Content made available on the Websites.
Others. The Foundation may be required by law, process, litigation, and/or determinations by public or governmental authorities within or outside the country in which you reside to disclose any information collected. We may also disclose such information if the Foundation understands that such disclosure is for national security, legal requirements, or other matters of public importance or when disclosure is necessary or appropriate. The Foundation also safeguards its ability to disclose and use such information to enforce the Terms and Conditions of Use or to protect our operations or its Users.
8. Protection of Information Collected from Users
The Foundation takes precautions, including administrative, technical, technological, and physical measures, to protect the information collected against loss, theft, and misuse, as well as unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction.
We only handle User data by implementing industry-leading security best practices for data protection. However, it is not possible to completely guarantee the non-occurrence of interceptions and breaches of the Foundation's systems and databases, since the internet has its security structure under constant improvement. In any event, the Foundation is committed to always striving to mitigate and resolve any incidents that may occur when collecting and storing User data.
9. Targeting other sites and services
Our websites contain links to third party websites. If you choose to visit another website by clicking a link, you will be redirected to the third party website. Redirecting to a website is not an endorsement, authorization, or representation of an affiliation with that third party, nor is it an endorsement of its privacy or information security policies or practices. We do not exercise control over third party websites and advise you to read the privacy policies and terms of use before providing any information or using other websites.
