4. Links

Some areas of our Site contain links to third party websites. These websites are covered by other privacy policies. We are not responsible for the operation of those websites, including how personal data is handled by third parties. If you intend to submit information to (or through) such third party websites, we recommend that you check their privacy policies before submitting information that could be linked to you as a natural person.

 

5. Recipients of the data

Your data will only be shared with internal departments or organizational units and other group companies that need access to the data to fulfill contractual and legal obligations or insofar as they need the data to process and implement our legitimate interests.

Your data will be communicated to external recipients in order to perform contracts if we have such a legal obligation to provide information, report or share data or if you have given us your consent to share your data with third parties or external service providers who are acting as our subcontractors or performing functions for us (e.g., IT service providers, accounting services, occupational medicine, etc.). FHP ensures that each of these external recipients ensures the confidentiality of the data by entering into agreements or other normative act to regulate the communication of data with its Subcontractors, pursuant to Article 28 of the GDPR.

 

6. Transfers to third countries

We store and process your personal data mainly in services located in the EU/EEA.
However, we operate as a global company and have confidence in international service providers to support our global solutions. Personal data may be transferred to a country other than the country in which you live.

Any transfer of data outside the EU/EEA is strictly regulated by the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses, considering the technical risks associated with the law of the third country where they exist.

7. Your rights as a data subject

You may at any time invoke your rights listed below against any of the entities listed under point 1.

7.1 RIGHT OF ACCESS

Pursuant to Article 15 of the GDPR, you have the right to access the following information at any time and free of charge: the personal data we process relating to you, the categories of recipients, the expected data retention period or, in the case of transfers to countries outside the European Union, the safeguards implemented. You also have the right to a copy of your data.

Under Article 12(5) of the GDPR, FHP reserves the right to require payment of a reasonable fee or to refuse access to information in the case of manifestly unfounded or excessive requests.

7.2 RIGHT TO RECTIFICATION, ERASURE AND RESTRICTION OF PROCESSING 

In the event that the data we process is incorrect or incomplete or if its processing is unlawful, you may request that we rectify, complete or limit the processing of your data or delete it to the extent permitted by law (Articles 16, 17 and 18 of the GDPR).

There is no right of erasure if the processing is necessary for (i) the exercise of the right to freedom of expression and information; (ii) for compliance with a legal obligation to which FHP is subject (e.g. minimum data retention periods); or (iii) for the assertion, exercise or defense of a legal right.

7.3 RIGHT TO PORTABILITY

In the event that you have provided us with personal data based on your Consent or in the context of a contractual relationship, FHP will, upon request, deliver such data to you in a commonly used computer-readable format and in a structured manner. Where technically feasible, we may also transmit the data to a third party nominated by you.

7.4 RIGHT TO OBJECT

If we process your data to pursue a legitimate interest, you may object to this processing for reasons relating to your particular situation (Article 21 of the GDPR). The right to object can only be exercised within the limits of Article 21 of the GDPR. However, our interests may outweigh the right to stop processing, which means that despite your objection, we may have the right to process your personal data.

7.5 RIGHT TO SUBMIT COMPLAINTS

Please contact us with your questions, suggestions and criticisms by email: dataprotection@frezitehp.com.

Pursuant to Article 77 of the GDPR, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, namely in the EU Member State where you normally reside, work or where the alleged violation of your rights under the GDPR has taken place. The right to lodge a complaint is independent of any other administrative or judicial measures.

The Supervisory Authority applicable to us is the:

National Commission for Data Protection

Rua de São Bento n.º 148-3º 1200-821 Lisbon
Tel: 00351 213928400
Fax: 00351 213976832
Email: geral@cnpd.pt

Before contacting the supervisory authority, we ask that you first contact us if you have a complaint. We will try to resolve it quickly.

8. Obligation to provide data

As a general rule, you are under no obligation to provide us with personal data. However, if you do not provide us with your data, we cannot give you access to our Site or process your request or answer any questions you may have.

 

9. Automated Individual Decisions/Profiling

We do not make automated individual decisions. If necessary, we may process your data to evaluate certain personal aspects (profiling).

10. Consent/rights to withdraw consent

In the event that you have given us your consent to the collection, processing or use of your data, you may at any time withdraw this consent by sending a notice to the entity indicated at point 1. An e-mail will be sufficient.

You also have the right to object to the processing of your data on account of your particular situation, pursuant to Article 6(1)(e) (performance of duties in the public interest) or Article 6(1)(f) (legitimate interests of the Controller) of the GDPR; this also applies to profiling under these provisions. In these situations, we will stop processing your data unless we can demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or that the processing serves the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.

If data relating to you are processed for direct marketing purposes, you may object to such processing at any time. If you object to the processing for direct marketing purposes, we will no longer process your data for these purposes.

Please send the notification of withdrawal of consent to the contacts listed in point 1.

11. Personal Data Retention Period

Your data collected through the Site are treated in strict compliance with the applicable legislation and are stored in specific databases created for this purpose. Such data is kept in a format that allows your identification and only for the period of time necessary for the purposes for which they are processed, after which time they will be deleted.

The period of time for which data is stored and retained varies according to the purpose for which the information is used. There are, however, legal requirements that make it necessary to retain data for a longer period of time. In this case, data will be stored and retained for the minimum period necessary to comply with this legal obligation, after which it will also be deleted.

 

12. Changes

FHP reserves the right to change this privacy policy at any time. All material changes will be announced by posting the revised privacy policy on our Site. Unless otherwise stated, changes will take effect immediately. We therefore suggest that you check the Privacy Policy regularly to make sure you are aware of the latest version.
