Privacy policy
Describes what data this site collects, what it is used for and how long it is kept.
This is a translation provided for convenience. The processing is governed by Brazilian law and the binding text is the Portuguese version of this policy. Política de privacidade — português
Who processes the data
The data sent through this site is processed by Renzo Barroso Sociedade Individual de Advocacia, as controller, under the terms of Brazilian Law 13.709/2018 (LGPD).
What data is collected
The site collects only the data the person enters in the contact form: name, e-mail, phone and company when filled in, the matter indicated and the content of the message. Along with the submission, the date, time and source IP address are recorded — information needed to limit automated use of the form.
The site does not use advertising cookies, does not profile visitors and does not integrate third-party tracking tools. There is no consent banner because nothing is loaded from a third party unless the person asks for it.
The office maps
On the offices page, the map for each office is only loaded when the person clicks to see it. From then on the content comes from Google Maps, and Google begins recording the IP address and writing its own cookies in the browser, under its own privacy policy. Until the map is opened, no request is made to Google. The office addresses are written on the page, as text, and do not depend on the map.
What the data is used for
The data is used exclusively to reply to the contact, assess whether the firm can act on the matter and, where an engagement follows, to perform the service. The legal basis is the preliminary procedure to a contract and the regular exercise of rights, provided for in article 7 of the LGPD.
Messages are not used to send promotional communication and are not shared with third parties, except where necessary to comply with a legal duty or an order from a competent authority.
Sending a message does not create a lawyer-client relationship
A message sent through this site is an initial contact. It does not establish a lawyer-client relationship, does not create a duty of professional confidentiality over the content sent and does not interrupt any deadline. For that reason, do not attach documents or include confidential information before the firm confirms that it can act on the matter — not least because a conflict of interest with an existing client may prevent it from doing so.
How long the data is kept
Messages received are kept for as long as needed to handle the contact and, where an engagement follows, for the period required for the safekeeping of professional documents. Once the purpose is exhausted and the legal periods have elapsed, the records are deleted.
Rights of the data subject
The data subject may request confirmation that processing exists, access to the data, correction of incomplete or outdated data, anonymisation or deletion of unnecessary data, portability and withdrawal of consent. The request may be made through the site's contact channel or at the head office address.
Security
The site is served exclusively over an encrypted connection and messages are stored in a restricted-access environment, available only to the people involved in handling the contact.
