Privacy Policy

Shortlec — Sistemas Elétricos, Lda., with registered offices at Avenida Dom Miguel 150, 4435-678 Baguim do Monte, Portugal, is the data controller for personal data collected through this website.

Contact for data-protection matters: shortlec@shortlec.com.

We only process data you voluntarily provide — for example, when you contact us by email or phone via the links available on the website. We do not operate online contact forms that store data.

If analytics cookies are in use (see "Cookies" section), we may collect aggregated technical data such as browser type, pages visited, and session duration. This data is anonymized whenever possible and is never sold to third parties.

The data we collect is used solely to: respond to information and quote requests; improve the user experience on the website; fulfil legal obligations where applicable.

We do not use your data for direct marketing without your explicit consent.

This website uses essential cookies for its operation (for example, language preference). These cookies do not require prior consent as they are strictly necessary.

When analytics tools (such as Google Analytics) are enabled, your prior consent will be requested through a cookie banner. You can withdraw that consent at any time by clearing cookies from your browser.

We rely on service providers that, acting as processors, handle data on our behalf and meet the same data-protection requirements:

• Sanity (CMS) — storage of website content.

• Render (hosting) — server where the website runs.

• Google Analytics (optional, subject to consent) — aggregated website usage analytics.

We keep data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or the period required by law (for example, accounting records must be kept for ten years).

Under the GDPR, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:

• Right of access to the data we hold about you.

• Right to rectification of inaccurate data.

• Right to erasure ("right to be forgotten").

• Right to restriction of processing.

• Right to data portability.

• Right to object to processing.

• Right to withdraw consent where consent is the legal basis for processing.

• Right to lodge a complaint with the Portuguese Data Protection Authority (CNPD).

We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.

We may update this policy periodically. The "last updated" date at the top of the page will always indicate the version in force.
