What is collected, and why
Contact form
When you submit the form on the home page, the following are collected: name, email address, the profile you select, the service you select, and your message. They are used solely to answer your enquiry and, where it leads to one, to prepare a proposal.
- Legal basis: steps taken at your request prior to entering into a contract (Article 6(1)(b) GDPR).
- Processor: submissions are handled by Netlify Forms and stored on Netlify's infrastructure. Netlify, Inc. is established in the United States; transfers rely on the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses.
- Retention: [PRAZO — sugestão: 24 meses após o último contacto], after which enquiries are deleted.
Audience measurement
This site uses Umami to count visits. Umami does not set cookies, does not create a persistent identifier, and does not follow you to other websites. It records the page visited, the referring page, and approximate country, device type and browser. Your IP address is processed transiently to derive the country and is not stored.
- Legal basis: legitimate interest in understanding which pages are useful (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR).
- Processor: Umami Software, Inc.
Fonts
Typefaces are loaded from Google Fonts. This means your browser requests files from Google's servers, and your IP address is transmitted to Google in the process. This happens on every page.
What is stored on your device
This site sets no advertising or tracking cookies. It stores a small number of preferences in your browser's local storage, which never leave your device:
| Key | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
bl-lang | Remembers whether you chose English or Portuguese | Until cleared |
bl-theme | Remembers your light or dark preference | Until cleared |
bl-cookie | Remembers that you dismissed the notice | Until cleared |
You can delete these at any time through your browser settings.
Who else sees your data
Personal data is never sold, rented or exchanged. It is shared only with the providers needed to run the site and respond to you: Netlify (hosting and form submissions), Umami (audience measurement) and Google (fonts, as described above). Data may also be disclosed where required by law.
Your rights
Under the GDPR you may request access to your data, rectification of inaccurate data, erasure, restriction of processing, portability, and you may object to processing based on legitimate interest. To exercise any of these, write to [ENDEREÇO DE EMAIL]. You will receive an answer within one month.
If you believe your data has been handled unlawfully, you may complain to the Portuguese supervisory authority, the Comissão Nacional de Protecção de Dados — www.cnpd.pt.
Security
The site is served exclusively over HTTPS. It has no login or administration area, and holds no accounts or passwords of any kind.

This policy may be updated. The date at the top always reflects the version in force.
