What Data We Collect

The São Paulo State Film Commission may collect information actively entered by the User during registration, as well as information collected automatically when using the website and related pages, such as characteristics of the access device, IP address with date and time, among others.

In this way, there is the processing of personal data i) provided by the User and ii) collected automatically.

1. Information provided by the User: The São Paulo State Film Commission collects all information actively entered by the User on the Site, such as full name, email , address, phone/mobile number, website , and audiovisual content, when the User fills out forms. The São Paulo State Film Commission will use this information to promote the dissemination of institutional material, newsletters , and to provide details about services offered on the platform, among other things, if the User consents to this communication.

2. Automatically collected data: The São Paulo State Film Commission also automatically collects a range of information, such as: characteristics of the access device, browser, IP address (with date and time), IP origin, information about clicks, pages accessed, subsequent pages accessed after leaving the Site, or any search term entered on the Site or in reference to it, among others. To this end, the São Paulo State Film Commission will use some technologies, such as cookies , which are used to optimize the User’s browsing experience on the site , according to their habits and preferences.

The platform may store data that users enter into their profiles or advertisements, including images, videos, and professional information. By publishing such content, the user acknowledges that they do so freely, knowingly, and voluntarily; declares that they have authorization to use any images or information from third parties; and is entirely responsible for the content made available.

The platform is not responsible for sensitive data voluntarily published by users, including content involving third parties without their consent.

It is possible to disable the automatic collection of information through certain technologies, such as cookies and caches , via your internet browser settings, as well as on our own Site , specifically regarding cookies . However, the User should be aware that if these technologies are disabled, some features offered by the site, which depend on the processing of said data, may not function correctly.

The information entered by those intending to offer a product or service will be shared by the São Paulo State Film Commission with: i) all those who access the website ; ii) for the protection of the interests of the São Paulo State Film Commission and in case of any conflict; iii) by court order or request from a competent authority.

The registration information of users interested in contracting products and services will not be public.

Furthermore, we clarify that your information may be shared with partners, for specific contracted purposes only, such as providers of technological and operational infrastructure necessary for our activities, such as cloud information storage providers.

Use of Personal Information and Data

• The São Paulo State Film Commission uses your personal information and data to enable user registration and identification, promote and advertise services and spaces on the platform, adapt the Site to your preferences, provide services requested by the User, and send you information about products and services.

Legal Basis : In these cases, the processing of personal data is legitimized by items I and IX of article 7 of Federal Law No. 13.709/2018, the General Data Protection Law (“LGPD”).

“Article 7. The processing of personal data may only be carried out in the following cases:”

I – through the provision of consent by the data subject;

IX – when necessary to meet the legitimate interests of the controller or a third party, except where the fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject prevail and require protection of personal data;”

Who We Will Share the Data With

The Website User may always choose not to disclose their personal data to the São Paulo State Film Commission , but some of this data may be necessary to obtain some of the Content and Services we offer (e.g., newsletter). Regardless, the Website User will always have rights relating to the privacy and protection of their personal data.

Eventually, the São Paulo State Film Commission may request specific information from the User to help confirm their identity and ensure their right to access their personal data (or to exercise their other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that the User’s personal data is not disclosed to anyone who does not have the right to receive it. We may also contact the User.

The data may be shared with service providers, legal authorities if there is a legal obligation or court order, or with other users of the platform when the user voluntarily includes information.

In any case, the São Paulo State Film Commission , in order to safeguard and protect its rights, may access, read, preserve and provide any data and information about the User, including their interactions, if necessary to:

1. Compliance with a legal obligation, court order, or request from administrative authorities with the necessary competence to do so;

2. To comply with or enforce other Agreements and/or Contracts; and,

3. To protect the rights, property, and safety of the São Paulo State Film Commission , as well as our employees, service providers, and/or other Users.

How long will the data be stored?

The São Paulo State Film Commission will retain the Site User’s personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which we collected it, including for the purposes of complying with any legal, contractual, accountability obligations or requests from competent authorities.

All collected data will be deleted from our servers when the User requests it or when it is no longer necessary or relevant for us to offer our Services, unless there is any other reason for its retention, such as a legal obligation to retain data, or the need to preserve it to protect the rights of the São Paulo State Film Commission .

To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, as well as applicable legal requirements.

How the São Paulo State Film Commission Protects Your Personal Data

The São Paulo State Film Commission employs technical and organizational security measures to protect your information and personal data. The data will be stored in a secure operating environment, and only data shared by those interested in offering products and services on the website will be publicly accessible .

The São Paulo State Film Commission strives to protect the privacy of personal data and other stored information; however, total security cannot be guaranteed. Unauthorized use of accounts, hardware or software failure, as well as other factors, may compromise the security of your personal data at any time.
