BRAZILIAN DATA PROTECTION LAW (LGPD)

The Brazilian Data Protection Law or the LGPD, which is derived from its Portuguese name. The LGPD is Brazil’s law on online privacy requirements and certain rights and privileges given to data subjects.

Under the LGPD, “processing” is defined as collection, production, reproduction, transmission, receipt, use, classification, filing, storage, control or evaluation of data, deletion, dissemination, extraction, modification, and communication. The LGPD applies to “personal data” that is defined as any information related to an identified or identifiable natural person.

The data subject has the right to exercise these rights with our business Travelonatimebudget.co.uk anytime free of charge. 

As a business, we can only process personal data if there are any legal basis for processing that data. The LGPD provides approximately ten (10) legal basis for processing data. The ten grounds are:

  • Data processing is necessary to comply with a legal obligation.
  • Processing is essential to protect the life or physical safetyof the data subject or another third party.
  • Necessary to execute a contract or contract related proceduresthat the data subject is a party of at the request of the data subject.

  • Necessary to process to exercise rights in judicial, arbitration and administrative procedures.
  • Necessary to process to execute public policies provided in laws or regulations, or those that are based on contracts, policies, agreements or similar binding instruments. 

Travelonatimebudget.co.uk mostly uses legal basis #1 and #5 above, which are that the data subject gives express consent to process the data, and that processing is necessary to to fulfill the legitimate interests of the controller or of the third-party, except when data subject’s fundamental rights prevail to process personal and sensitive data collected from you.

Or if you request a price quote or ask a question about my products or services, I will use that personal information to respond to your inquiry.

Sharing Personal Information

If necessary to carry out a business purpose, I may share your personal information by disclosing it to a third party. I only make these business purpose disclosures under written contracts that describe the purposes, require the recipient to keep the personal information confidential and prohibit using the disclosed information for any purpose except performing the contract.

Reselling Personal Information

Your Rights and Choices

The CCPA provides consumers (California residents) with specific rights regarding their personal information. This section describes your CCPA rights and explains how to exercise those rights.

Right to Know

You have the right to request that we disclose certain information to you about our collection and use of your personal information over the past 12 months. This right under the CCPA is the Right to Know. Once I receive your request and confirm your identity, I will disclose to you:

  • The categories of personal information I collected about you.
  • The categories of sources for the personal information I collected about you.
  • My business or commercial purpose for collecting or selling that personal information.
  • The categories of third parties with whom I share that personal information.
  • If I sold or disclosed your personal information for a business purpose, two separate lists disclosing:
    • sales, identifying the personal information categories that each category of recipient purchased; and
    • disclosures for a business purpose, identifying the personal information categories that each category of recipient obtained.
  • The specific pieces of personal information I collected about you (also called a data portability request).

Data Portability must be maintained, which is also a right under CCPA as amended. This means that the information that is provided as a result of data requests must be in a readily usable format.

Right to Delete

You have the right to request that I delete any of your personal information that I collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions (the “right to delete”). Once we receive your request and confirm your identity, I will review your request to see if any exceptions apply that would permit me to retain the collected information. I may deny your deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for me or our service provider(s) to:

  1. Complete the transaction for which I collected the personal information, provide a good or service that you requested, take actions reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing business relationship with you, fulfill the terms of a written warranty or product recall conducted in accordance with federal law, or otherwise perform my contract with you.
  2. Detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecute those responsible for such activities.
  3. Debug products to locate and fix errors that impair existing intended functionality and purpose.
  4. Exercise free speech, ensure the right of another consumer to exercise their free speech rights, or exercise another right provided for by law.
  5. Comply with the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act
  6. Comply with a legal obligation.
  7. Make other internal and lawful uses of that information that are compatible with the context in which you provided it.

I will delete or de-identify personal information not subject to one of these exceptions from my records and will direct our service providers to take similar action.

The Right to Correct Inaccurate Personal Information

Under CCPA, as amended by CPRA, you have the right to request that I correct any inaccurate personal information we maintain about you, taking into account the nature of the personal information and the purposes of the processing of the personal information.

Right to Limit the Use of Sensitive or Personal Information

Under the CCPA, as amended by the CPRA, consumers also have the right to limit the use of the collected sensitive or personal information on them to the particular purposes and categories that the business collected the information for.

Right to Non-Discrimination for Exercising CCPA Rights

I will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights. Unless permitted by the CCPA, I will not:

  • Deny you goods or services.
  • Charge you different prices or rates for goods or services, including through granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties.
  • Provide you a different level or quality of goods or services.
  • Suggest that you may receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services.

However, I may offer you certain financial incentives permitted by the CCPA that can result in different prices, rates, or quality levels. Participation in a financial incentive program requires your prior opt-in consent, which you may revoke at any time.

Required Notices at Collection

Pursuant to the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), businesses are required to furnish consumers with specific information via a “notice at collection.” This notice must identify the categories of personal information that the business collects from consumers and the reasons why they collect and use such categories of information. In the event that the business sells the personal information of consumers, the notice at collection must feature a “Do Not Sell or Share” hyperlink. Moreover, the notice must include a hyperlink to the business’s privacy policy, which provides a comprehensive overview of the business’s privacy practices and the privacy rights of consumers. The notice at collection must be issued at or prior to the time the business collects the consumer’s personal information.

Exercising Your Rights to Know or Delete

To exercise your rights to know or delete described above, please submit a request by either:

Only you, or someone legally authorized to act on your behalf, may make a request to know or delete related to your personal information.

You may also make a request to know or delete on behalf of your child (age 13 or younger) by emailing me at [email protected].

You may only submit a request to know twice within a 12-month period. Your request to know or delete must:

  • Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative, which may include:
    • Name
    • Email address
  • Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.

I cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if I cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the personal information relates to you.

I will only use personal information provided in the request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make it.

Response Timing and Format

I will confirm receipt of your request within ten (10) business days. If you do not receive confirmation within the 10-day timeframe, please contact [email protected].

If your identity and request were verifiable, then I will respond within forty-five (45) days of the receipt of the request. If we require more time (up to another 45 days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing.

If you have an account with me, I will deliver our written response to that account. If you do not have an account with me, I will deliver my written response by mail or electronically at your option.

Any disclosures I provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding our receipt of your request. The response we provide will also explain the reasons I cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For data portability requests, I will select a format to provide your personal information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance, specifically as an Excel file or CSV file.

I do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If I determine that the request warrants a fee, I will tell you why I made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.

Personal Information Sales Opt-Out and Opt-In Rights

If you are age 16 or older, you have the right to direct me not to sell your personal information at any time (the “right to opt-out”). I do not sell the personal information of consumers I actually know are less than 16 years old, unless I receive affirmative authorization (the “right to opt-in”) from either the consumer who is between 13 and 15 years old, or the parent or guardian of a consumer less than 13 years old]. Consumers who opt-in to personal information sales may opt-out of future sales at any time.

To exercise the right to opt-out, you (or your authorized representative) may submit a request to me by emailing me at [email protected].

Once you make an opt-out request, I will wait at least twelve (12) months before asking you to reauthorize personal information sales. However, you may change your mind and opt back into personal information sales at any time by emailing me at travelonatimebudget.co.uk.

Changes to Our Privacy Policy

I reserve the right to amend this privacy policy at our discretion and at any time. When I make changes to this privacy policy, I will post the updated notice on the Website and update the notice’s effective date. Your continued use of our Website following the posting of changes constitutes your acceptance of such changes.
