Legal Text

This Privacy Policy and Information Practices Notice establishes the procedures of Quinta do Pinheiro regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of information that you may provide through this website. Please read this Privacy Policy in its entirety before using it or submitting information to Quinta do Pinheiro through it.

By accessing this website and whenever you submit information through it to Quinta do Pinheiro, you agree to the terms of Quinta do Pinheiro's Privacy Policy and the Information Practices Notice described below:

Data Collection

Quinta do Pinheiro only collects personally identifiable information such as your name, address, phone number, or email address when you voluntarily submit it to Quinta do Pinheiro through this website. This information may be used by Quinta do Pinheiro to contact you for further information, improve this website, provide you with requested information, or share additional information that Quinta do Pinheiro believes may be of interest to you. The data will not be transferred to third parties without your prior consent, but it may be used within Quinta do Pinheiro or by another company acting as an agent of Quinta do Pinheiro for processing or mailing purposes.

Quinta do Pinheiro maintains received data in an electronic database with voluntarily submitted personal information. Quinta do Pinheiro and its agents may exchange this information among themselves or with you via the Internet, intranet systems, or printed materials to carry out the services described above.

Although Quinta do Pinheiro makes every effort to protect the information received through its websites, please be aware that there is always some risk when transmitting data over the Internet. We cannot guarantee that our website is 100% secure against illegal interceptions or "hacking." Any data transmitted over the Internet may be at risk; however, once received by Quinta do Pinheiro and stored in its database, the same protections used by Quinta do Pinheiro to safeguard its own confidential information will be applied.

We keep a record of the total number of visitors to our website, the number of visitors to each page, and the domain names of our users’ Internet service providers. No personally identifiable information is collected in this process.

Updating Your Information

If at any time you wish to stop receiving emails or other communications from us, or if you have submitted personally identifiable information through our website and would like that information deleted from our records, please notify us. You may also request access to your personal data held by Quinta do Pinheiro and request corrections or changes to that data. Remember that when exchanging emails, any message you send or receive on your system may be owned by your employer, who may have the ability to access your personal information sent via email.

Links to Third-Party Websites

As a courtesy to our visitors, our websites contain links to some third-party websites (owned by entities other than Quinta do Pinheiro) that we believe may contain useful information. The privacy policy presented here does not apply to these websites. You should contact them directly for information about their privacy policies, confidentiality agreements, and data collection/distribution procedures.

Children's Privacy Policy

Our website is not intended for or designed to attract children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from individuals under 13 years old.

Cookies

Our website uses a technology called "non-persistent cookies," which is a small data file that a server sends to your browser when you access a website, allowing you to navigate the requested pages and keep track of visited pages. Using "non-persistent cookies" to count page visits enables us to analyze our website usage more accurately. If we do not use "non-persistent cookies," we will not collect personally identifiable information unless you explicitly authorize it. On Quinta do Pinheiro websites that require passwords, you grant us explicit permission to use a "persistent cookie," which is a small data file generated when you enter your user ID and password and access the site. This file is stored on your computer and allows your browser to access each page in the password-protected area.

Please note that some websites linked to Quinta do Pinheiro, but not owned by Quinta do Pinheiro, may use cookies that Quinta do Pinheiro cannot control. We also want to inform you that when linking from a Quinta do Pinheiro website to another, that site may be able to identify that your connection came from a Quinta do Pinheiro website. If you do not want other websites to know that you have visited ours, we recommend not using the links provided on our site.
