Collection and Use of Your Personal Data

Personal Data: When using our service, we may ask you to provide personally identifiable information, including but not limited to:

First and last name

Usage data

Usage Data: Usage data is collected automatically and may include information such as your device’s IP address, browser type and version, pages visited on our service, the time and date of your visit, time spent on those pages, unique device identifiers, and other diagnostic data.

Retention of Personal Data

We will retain your personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy and in compliance with applicable legislation, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) (Regulation (EU) 2016/679) and Portuguese Law No. 58/2019, which ensures GDPR implementation in Portugal.

For recruitment purposes, CVs and other submitted documents will be stored for a maximum period of 12 months unless the candidate requests immediate deletion. After this period, all data will be securely deleted.

Under the GDPR, you have the right to:

Access your personal data and request a copy;
Rectify inaccurate or incomplete personal data;
Request the deletion of your data, unless legal obligations require retention;
Object to the processing of your data for specific purposes;
Request data portability to another entity.

Data Transfers

Your data may be processed in locations where data protection laws differ from those in your jurisdiction. We ensure that all partners and service providers comply with GDPR and have appropriate security measures in place to protect your data.

Deletion of Personal Data

If you wish to delete your personal data before the specified retention period, you can request it by emailing info@vgcolab.com. For recruitment applications, candidates will be informed of the retention policy and given the option to request immediate deletion.

Data Security

Protecting your personal data is our priority. We implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures to prevent unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction of your data. However, no method of data transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
