1. Data processing
CIBERBIT – Produções de Software, S.A., with VAT number 503550809, whose registered office is at Parque Empresarial De Eiras, 19, 3020-265 Coimbra, is the Data Controller (“Controller”), determining the purposes and means of the processing of personal data in the context of its activity.
Access to and use of the Website does not require Users to share personal data. However, the use of certain features of the Website may involve the provision of personal data. For example, we need to have access to your personal data should you want us to contact you to answer any enquiries you may have.
As such, whenever the User wishes to contact Ciberbit, in addition to the contacts provided, he/she may request to be contacted directly through the contact request form available on the Website, which requires Ciberbit to collect a set of personal data, namely, name, e-mail and phone number. In this case, the provision of these data is mandatory and without them it will not be possible to answer adequately to your contact request.

In accordance with the applicable data protection legislation, data subjects may, at any time, exercise the following rights:
Right of access;

3. Data retention
Personal data shall not be processed for a longer period than necessary for the purposes for which the personal data was collected. As such, CIBERBIT shall retain your personal information only for the period strictly necessary for the provision of the services, for compliance with legal obligations and to allow the exercise of the rights of data subjects and the fulfilment of the corresponding obligations.
In the event of a pending dispute, personal data may be kept for a period of up to six months after the respective court decision has become final.
4. Data transfers
CIBERBIT may transfer personal data to other entities to whom it has subcontracted the provision of certain services. These entities may access and process data on CIBERBIT’s behalf and are bound to strictly follow CIBERBIT’s instructions. We ensure these entities implement the appropriate technical and organizational measures, so that the processing meets the requirements of data protection legislation.
Personal data may also be transmitted to judicial, administrative, supervisory or regulatory authorities in compliance with CIBERBIT’s legal obligations.
If, within the scope of the provision of services, CIBERBIT transfers data to entities whose headquarters are outside the EU/EEA, established in countries that do not guarantee an adequate level of data protection equivalent to that of the European Union, measures will be implemented to protect the transferred data, taking into account the mechanisms provided for in the legislation, to guarantee the security of these transfers of personal data.
5. Security measures
In order to guarantee the appropriate security and maximum confidentiality of the User’s personal data, CIBERBIT processes personal information in accordance with its internal security and confidentiality policies and procedures, which are updated periodically.
Depending on the nature, scope, context and purpose of the data processing, as well as the risks to the data subject’s rights and freedoms that arise from said processing, CIBERBIT commits to implement all the technical and organizational measures necessary to comply with the relevant data protection legislation.
Furthermore, CIBERBIT is also committed to processing only the necessary personal data required for each specific processing purpose and that such data is not made available to anyone who should not have access to it.
In general, CIBERBIT may adopt the following technical and organizational measures:
1. Pseudonymization and encryption of personal data, when applicable;
2. Mechanisms to ensure the permanent confidentiality, integrity, availability and resilience of information systems;
3. Mechanisms to restore the availability of information systems and access to personal data in a timely manner in the event of a physical or technical incident;
4. Regular testing to assess the effectiveness of the technical and organizational measures implemented.
CIBERBIT will make its best efforts to ensure and maintain in operation all technical and organizational measures at its disposal to prevent the loss, misuse, alteration, unauthorized access, and misappropriation of personal data. CIBERBIT makes its best efforts so that the Website does not carry any type of virus or other malicious software to your computer or mobile device. Without prejudice, since CIBERBIT is unable to fully control the flow of information over the Internet, it is not possible to guarantee that it does not contain any type of virus or other elements that could damage your device, strongly recommending to keep operating systems up to date and using protection software such as antivirus or, where applicable, firewall.
CIBERBIT declines any responsibility for damages suffered by Users caused or not by third parties, including loss or damage of data, resulting from the use of materials, contents or information provided, in any way, by CIBERBIT.
