Privacy Policy

SCOPE
EXPONOR – Feira Internacional do Porto, hereinafter referred to as “Exponor,” is a private non-profit association that respects the privacy of its interlocutors. Exponor’s Privacy Policy aims to inform who we are, the purposes for which we collect personal data, how we process it, with whom we share it, how long we retain it, as well as how to contact us and exercise your rights.

DATA CONTROLLER
The data controller is EXPONOR – Feira Internacional do Porto, corporate entity no. 510 673 856, headquartered at Avenida Dr. António Macedo nº 574/580, 4454-515 Matosinhos, phone number +(351) 22 9981400.

In certain cases, Exponor will act as a subcontractor, processing your data on behalf of another entity, which will act as the data controller, particularly in cases of funded programs or other types of partnerships.
In these cases, we recommend consulting the privacy policy and/or other information regarding the processing of your data with the data controllers.

INFORMATION PROCESSING
Exponor is committed to processing personal data lawfully and transparently.
Personal data will only be collected for specific, explicit, and legitimate purposes and will not be processed in a manner incompatible with those purposes.

1. Have a legitimate interest in doing so, namely for
1.1. Development and maintenance of the Website;
1.2. Provision of services or information;
1.3. Ensuring information security;
1.4. Registration for actions organized or supported by Exponor;
1.5. Recruitment processes;
1.6. Provided that, in each case, our interest complies with applicable legislation and your rights;

2. Have obtained the express consent of the data subject, namely for:
2.1. Sending information about actions promoted or supported by Exponor;
2.2. Invitations;

3. When necessary to comply with legal obligations.

4. When you register for one of our actions, some of your personal data may be shared with subcontracting entities, namely for the preparation and marketing of fair publications, ticket issuance, and inclusion in the Exponor APP, among others that may prove useful for action management.

WHY WE PROCESS YOUR INFORMATION
When you fill out the contact forms available on our Website, the personal data provided – such as name, email, phone number, or address – are collected by Exponor and processed to respond to the requests made.

When you register for one of our actions, some of your personal data may be shared with co-organizing entities of the said action.
By providing contacts, Exponor may contact you for marketing purposes related to the services it provides, provided you have consented to the processing of personal data for this purpose. If you consent, you will receive marketing communications via email. You may cancel this data processing at any time.

Your consent is essential for Exponor to process your personal data for the aforementioned purposes; however, if you choose not to give your consent, your visit and use of our Website will not be affected.

DATA RETENTION PERIOD
Exponor will retain and store the data only for the period necessary to fulfill the purposes that motivated its collection and processing, except in cases where there is a specific legal requirement.

DATA SUBJECT RIGHTS
The data subject can exercise, at any time, the rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, or objection and, where applicable, the right to data portability.

If processing depends on consent, the data subject has the right to withdraw consent at any time, although this right does not compromise the lawfulness of processing based on consent previously given.

If consent is legally necessary for the processing of personal data, the data subject has the right to withdraw consent at any time, although this right does not compromise the lawfulness of processing based on consent previously given nor the subsequent processing of the same data, based on another legal basis, such as compliance with a contract or legal obligation to which AEP is subject.

If the data subject wishes to exercise any of the rights, they should contact Exponor, in writing, via email at dpo@exponor.pt or by letter, sent to the address: Avenida Dr. António Macedo António nº 574/580, 4454-515 Matosinhos.

Proof of identity may be requested to ensure that the sharing of personal data is only carried out with the data subject. Please note that in certain cases (e.g., due to legal requirements), the request may not be immediately fulfilled. In any case, you will be informed of the measures taken in this regard within one month from the time the request is made. You also have the right to file a complaint with the National Data Protection Commission.

SECURITY AND CONFIDENTIALITY
Exponor is committed to ensuring the security and confidentiality of the personal data collected. However, the transmission of information over the Internet is not completely secure, and thus, we cannot fully guarantee the security of information transmitted through our Website.

Exponor has been adopting various security measures to protect personal data from any unlawful use, as well as requiring its partners to adopt security measures equivalent to those it practices.

We do not sell or otherwise commercially make your information available to any third party. Exponor is committed to keeping your information confidential in accordance with this Privacy Policy and applicable legislation.

IMAGE CAPTURE AND COLLECTION
We inform you that Exponor, within the scope of managing the public events it organizes, will capture video, sound, and photographic images to promote and disseminate the activities it promotes. These images and sound, as Exponor’s property, may be disseminated through any of the dissemination means used by Exponor, as well as archived by legal provision or in pursuit of Exponor’s legitimate interest.

Thus, by accessing the location where the events take place, as well as the adjacent areas, the data subject irrevocably accepts that Exponor records video, sound, and photographic images for the previously described purpose.

If you do not accept this procedure, we ask that you do not access the physical space that may be recorded.

CHANGES TO THE SECURITY POLICY
Exponor may update this Privacy Policy at any time. We therefore request that you periodically review this document to stay informed.
