Privacy Policy

Líquen Events re­spects your pri­va­cy and process­es your per­son­al data in ac­cor­dance with the Gen­er­al Data Pro­tec­tion Reg­u­la­tion (GDPR) and ap­plic­a­ble Por­tuguese law. This pol­i­cy ex­plains what data we col­lect, why, on what basis, and what your rights are.

1. Data controller

Líquen Events, reach­able at liquen.alen­te­jo@gmail.com and +351 919 259 820, is the con­troller of the per­son­al data col­lect­ed on this web­site.

For any ques­tion about your per­son­al data or this pol­i­cy, you can con­tact us by e-mail.

2. What data we collect

Data you pro­vide di­rect­ly when fill­ing in the quote-re­quest form: name, e-mail, phone, event type and date, event lo­ca­tion or re­gion, num­ber of guests and the mes­sage you send us. Pro­vid­ing this data is op­tion­al but nec­es­sary for us to reply and pre­pare a quote: with­out it we can­not act on your re­quest.

Pro­pos­al-ac­cep­tance and con­tract­ing data: if you ac­cept a pro­pos­al through the link we send you, we record the name given by who­ev­er ac­cepts, the date and time and the IP ad­dress, as proof of ac­cep­tance of the ser­vice pro­pos­al.

Billing and pay­ment data for your event (amounts, de­posit and bal­ance in­voic­es and pay­ment sta­tus), avail­able in your client area and re­tained to meet tax oblig­a­tions.

Visit source: if you reach the site via a link car­ry­ing cam­paign pa­ra­me­ters (UTM) or from an­oth­er web­site, we may record that ori­gin, linked to your re­quest, to un­der­stand how you found us.

Tech­ni­cal data col­lect­ed au­to­mat­i­cal­ly for se­cu­ri­ty and sta­tis­tics: IP ad­dress (ephemer­al­ly, for abuse lim­it­ing) and basic re­quest in­for­ma­tion.

An­a­lyt­ics and ad­ver­tis­ing data (only with your con­sent): if you ac­cept cook­ies in the no­tice shown, we use Google An­a­lyt­ics and Google Ads. These ser­vices col­lect cook­ie-based iden­ti­fiers, de­vice and brows­er in­for­ma­tion and the pages and in­ter­ac­tions on the site, so we can mea­sure our au­di­ence and the ef­fec­tive­ness of our ad­ver­tis­ing. If you de­cline, no cook­ies are set and no cook­ie-based in­for­ma­tion is col­lect­ed; Google may still re­ceive ag­gre­gat­ed, cook­ie­less sig­nals (for ex­am­ple, coun­try and page type) that it uses for sta­tis­ti­cal mod­el­ling and that do not iden­ti­fy you in­di­vid­u­al­ly.

Form draft: so you don't lose what you type, the quote-re­quest form tem­porar­i­ly saves your an­swers in the browser's ses­sion stor­age (ses­sion­Stor­age), on your de­vice only and only for the ses­sion, and they are cleared when you close the tab. You can also clear it at any time in your brows­er set­tings; noth­ing is sent until you sub­mit the re­quest.

3. Purposes and legal basis

Re­spond­ing to re­quests and prepar­ing quotes: pre-con­trac­tu­al steps you re­quest (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR) and, for mes­sages not aimed at con­tract­ing, our le­git­i­mate in­ter­est in re­ply­ing to you (f).

Man­ag­ing the client re­la­tion­ship and de­liv­er­ing our event-plan­ning ser­vices: per­for­mance of a con­tract (b).

Mea­sur­ing the site's au­di­ence and the ef­fec­tive­ness of our ad­ver­tis­ing (Google An­a­lyt­ics and Google Ads): based on your con­sent (a), when you ac­cept cook­ies.

En­sur­ing the se­cu­ri­ty of the site and pre­vent­ing abuse: le­git­i­mate in­ter­est (f).

Com­ply­ing with legal oblig­a­tions, no­tably tax and ac­count­ing: legal oblig­a­tion (c).

4. Retention periods

We keep quote-re­quest data only for as long as need­ed to re­spond and, if you pro­ceed, for the du­ra­tion of the con­trac­tu­al re­la­tion­ship. Re­quests that do not lead to a con­tract are delet­ed with­in a max­i­mum of 12 months after the last con­tact.

Data linked to in­voic­ing and tax and ac­count­ing oblig­a­tions is kept for the ap­plic­a­ble legal pe­ri­ods (as a rule, 10 years). Once those pe­ri­ods lapse, data is delet­ed or anonymised.

5. Processors and data sharing

We do not sell your data. We may use ser­vice providers who process it on our be­half and under our in­struc­tions, with ap­pro­pri­ate se­cu­ri­ty safe­guards: web­site host­ing and in­fra­struc­ture, send­ing and re­ceiv­ing e-mail, and data­base. Where ap­plic­a­ble, we enter into pro­cess­ing agree­ments under Art. 28 GDPR.

We also use Google (Google Ire­land Lim­it­ed) for usage sta­tis­tics (Google An­a­lyt­ics) and for ad­ver­tis­ing mea­sure­ment and op­ti­mi­sa­tion (Google Ads), but only when you ac­cept the rel­e­vant cook­ies in the cook­ie no­tice. If you de­cline, no cook­ies are set and no iden­ti­fiers are shared; Google may still re­ceive ag­gre­gat­ed, cook­ie­less sig­nals for sta­tis­ti­cal mod­el­ling that do not iden­ti­fy you in­di­vid­u­al­ly.

En­hanced Con­ver­sions: if you ac­cept cook­ies and sub­mit a quote re­quest, your e-mail and/or phone may be shared with Google sole­ly to mea­sure ad ef­fec­tive­ness. This data is hashed in your brows­er be­fore it is sent, and Google uses it only to match the con­ver­sion to the ad, never to iden­ti­fy you pub­licly. If you de­cline cook­ies, none of this hap­pens.

We may dis­close data where re­quired by law or by a com­pe­tent au­thor­i­ty.

6. International transfers

Some providers may process data out­side the Eu­ro­pean Eco­nom­ic Area. In such cases we en­sure ap­pro­pri­ate safe­guards (for ex­am­ple, the Eu­ro­pean Com­mis­sion's stan­dard con­trac­tu­al claus­es) to pro­tect your data.

In par­tic­u­lar, if you ac­cept an­a­lyt­ics and ad­ver­tis­ing cook­ies, Google may process data in the Unit­ed States, under those safe­guards (stan­dard con­trac­tu­al claus­es and/or the EU-US Data Pri­va­cy Frame­work).

7. Data security

We put in place ap­pro­pri­ate tech­ni­cal and or­gan­i­sa­tion­al mea­sures to pro­tect your data against unau­tho­rised ac­cess, loss, al­ter­ation or im­prop­er dis­clo­sure, for ex­am­ple re­strict­ed ac­cess to in­for­ma­tion and the use of en­crypt­ed con­nec­tions (HTTPS).

No sys­tem is en­tire­ly se­cure; should a data breach occur that is like­ly to re­sult in a high risk to your rights, we will com­ply with the no­ti­fi­ca­tion du­ties set out in the GDPR.

8. Your rights

You have the right to ac­cess, rec­ti­fy, erase, re­strict and ob­ject to the pro­cess­ing of your data, as well as the right to data porta­bil­i­ty and to with­draw con­sent at any time, with­out af­fect­ing the law­ful­ness of prior pro­cess­ing.

We do not carry out sole­ly au­to­mat­ed de­ci­sion-mak­ing, in­clud­ing pro­fil­ing, that pro­duces legal ef­fects con­cern­ing you or sim­i­lar­ly sig­nif­i­cant­ly af­fects you.

To ex­er­cise these rights, con­tact us at liquen.alen­te­jo@gmail.com. You also have the right to lodge a com­plaint with the Por­tuguese Data Pro­tec­tion Au­thor­i­ty (CNPD).

9. Image rights

At the events we or­gan­ise, pho­tographs and video may be taken. Some of these im­ages may be pub­lished in our port­fo­lio, on this web­site and on our so­cial media, to show­case our work.

Pub­lish­ing im­ages in which you are iden­ti­fi­able is based on your con­sent, ob­tained specif­i­cal­ly (for ex­am­ple, in the ser­vice con­tract or in a sep­a­rate au­tho­ri­sa­tion). You may de­cline this use with­out it af­fect­ing the de­liv­ery of our ser­vices.

You may, at any time, with­draw your con­sent and ask us to re­move im­ages in which you are iden­ti­fi­able, by con­tact­ing liquen.alen­te­jo@gmail.com. We will re­move them, with­in a rea­son­able pe­ri­od, from the chan­nels we con­trol. Note that im­ages al­ready shared or re­pro­duced by third par­ties may be out­side our con­trol.

Im­ages are used sole­ly to show­case our work, on our web­site and so­cial media, and are not trans­ferred to third par­ties for their own pro­mo­tion­al pur­pos­es. Mi­nors may be present at events: cap­tur­ing and pub­lish­ing iden­ti­fi­able im­ages of mi­nors de­pends on the prior con­sent of their legal rep­re­sen­ta­tives (par­ents or guardians), which may be with­drawn at any time.

10. Cookies

Strict­ly nec­es­sary cook­ies for the site to work, for ex­am­ple “liquen-lang”, which re­mem­bers your cho­sen lan­guage, do not re­quire con­sent. Your cook­ie pref­er­ence is stored in the browser's local stor­age (lo­cal­Stor­age), under the key “liquen-con­sent”, not in a cook­ie.

An­a­lyt­ics and ad­ver­tis­ing cook­ies (Google An­a­lyt­ics and Google Ads): these are only ac­ti­vat­ed if you ac­cept them in the cook­ie no­tice shown on your first visit. They are used to mea­sure vis­its and the ef­fec­tive­ness of our ad­ver­tis­ing and may in­volve shar­ing data with Google (see sec­tions 5 and 6). We use Google Con­sent Mode: until you ac­cept, no an­a­lyt­ics or ad­ver­tis­ing cook­ies are set.

You can de­cline, or change your choice at any time, via the “Man­age cook­ies” link in the site foot­er. De­clin­ing non-es­sen­tial cook­ies does not af­fect how the site works.

Main cook­ies and stor­age used: “liquen-lang” (lan­guage cook­ie, about 1 year); “liquen-con­sent” (your cook­ie choice, stored in the browser's lo­cal­Stor­age); “_ga” and “_ga_*” (Google An­a­lyt­ics: dis­tin­guish vis­i­tors and ses­sions, up to 2 years); “_gcl_au” (Google Ads: con­ver­sion mea­sure­ment, about 90 days). An­a­lyt­ics and ad­ver­tis­ing cook­ies only exist if you have ac­cept­ed them.

For of­fline use, the site may store a copy of pages and re­sources on your de­vice (brows­er cache), which con­tains no per­son­al data. The team's re­strict­ed area also uses strict­ly nec­es­sary ses­sion cook­ies, which are not set for site vis­i­tors.

11. Changes to this policy

We may up­date this pol­i­cy to re­flect legal or ser­vice changes. The ver­sion in force is al­ways the one pub­lished on this page, with its up­date date.
