Privacy Policy

1 Data Controller

Tasco Agency acts as the data controller for personal data collected through this website.

For any questions regarding privacy, data protection or the exercise of rights, users may contact: agency@tasco.website.

Should a Data Protection Officer (DPO) be formally appointed, their contact details will be published on this website.

2 Scope

This policy applies to the processing of personal data collected through the website, including host application forms, contact requests, site navigation, use of restricted areas and communications made by users.

This policy applies primarily under Portuguese and European legislation. However, where processing concerns individuals located in Brazil or Colombia, Tasco Agency will also endeavour to respect the rights and principles set out in the applicable local legislation, to the extent that such legislation is relevant to the activity carried out.

3 Purposes of Processing

Personal data is processed for the following purposes:

• management, analysis and follow-up of new host applications
• contact with applicants during the recruitment process
• assessment of the applicant's profile and suitability
• decision on approval or rejection of the application
• response to contact requests submitted by users
• technical management, security and operation of the website
• limited and proportionate internal statistical recording of website visits
• management of technical preferences, such as language and visual presentation of the site
• authentication and access management for restricted areas, where applicable

4 Personal Data Processed

Depending on the user's interaction with the website, the following data may be processed:

• name
• email address
• phone number or WhatsApp
• age
• country or language information
• profile or social media identifiers, such as Instagram or others provided by the user
• professional or application information, including experience, availability, platforms used and other data voluntarily submitted
• photograph or image sent by the applicant, where applicable
• content of messages submitted via forms or contacts
• technical browsing data, language preferences, access logs and basic information related to site usage

Tasco Agency requests that users do not submit personal data that is unnecessary or excessive in relation to the intended purpose.

5 Legal Basis for Processing

The processing of personal data is based, as applicable, on the following legal grounds:

• pre-contractual steps taken at the request of the data subject when submitting an application
• legitimate interest of Tasco Agency in managing recruitment, security, operation and operational improvement of the website, provided this does not override the rights and freedoms of data subjects
• compliance with legal obligations, where applicable
• consent of the data subject, where required or where optional data is provided voluntarily

Where processing is based on consent, the user may withdraw it at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out prior to withdrawal.

6 Data Retention

Personal data collected for host application purposes will be retained until the application decision is made and, in any case, for a maximum period of 6 months, unless:

• there is a legal obligation requiring retention for a longer period
• the data subject consents to an additional period
• retention is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defence of a right in judicial, administrative or similar proceedings

Technical, security and browsing data will be retained only for the period strictly necessary for the respective purposes.

7 Recipients and Processors

Personal data may be accessed by authorised Tasco Agency personnel and by service providers supporting the operation of the website and the recruitment process, namely in the areas of:

• hosting and technical infrastructure
• database and storage
• internal communications and notifications
• technical support and maintenance

Such third parties will only process data according to Tasco Agency's instructions and under appropriate confidentiality and security obligations.

8 International Data Transfers

Given the online nature of the service and the possible use of technology providers located outside the user's country or outside the European Economic Area, international data transfers may occur.

Where this occurs, Tasco Agency is committed to adopting appropriate measures to ensure a level of protection compatible with applicable legislation, including appropriate contractual or organisational mechanisms where required.

9 Data Subject Rights

Under applicable legislation, data subjects may request, at any time:

• access to their personal data
• rectification of inaccurate or incomplete data
• erasure of data, where applicable
• restriction of processing
• objection to processing, where applicable
• data portability, where legally provided
• withdrawal of consent, where processing is based on that ground

To exercise any of these rights, users should submit a request to: agency@tasco.website. Tasco Agency will respond within the applicable legal timeframe.

10 Complaints

Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority.

In Portugal, the supervisory authority is the CNPD – Comissão Nacional de Proteção de Dados.

Where applicable and under relevant local legislation, the user may also have recourse to the competent authority in the country where they are located.

11 Data Security

Tasco Agency adopts appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against destruction, loss, alteration, disclosure, unauthorised access or any other form of unlawful or improper processing.

However, no internet data transmission or storage system can be guaranteed as absolutely secure, so Tasco Agency cannot ensure total security, although it adopts reasonable and proportionate measures to protect it.

12 Cookies and Similar Technologies

The website may use cookies and similar technologies strictly necessary for its operation, as well as local storage mechanisms to save technical preferences such as language or visual presentation.

More detailed information is available in the Cookie and Similar Technologies Policy.

13 Changes to This Policy

Tasco Agency may update this Privacy Policy at any time where necessary to reflect legal, technical or operational changes. The most recent version will always be available on the website.
