HOW WE COLLECT YOUR PERSONAL DATA
Below we list the data we collect and the reasons for their collection. If you have witnessed anything beyond what is stated in this Policy, please notify us through the channel lgpd@fleye.com.br so that we can take appropriate action.
Customer Data:
Customer data (data of their representatives and agents) is necessary to maintain communication between the customer and Fleye, as well as for compliance with legal obligations, contract execution, or the regular exercise of rights. This data will be archived as long as it is essential, and the customer can request access or updates by emailing lgpd@fleye.com.br. Customer data will be deleted when they are no longer necessary, retaining only what is imperative for legal obligations, dispute resolution, security maintenance, fraud prevention, or abuse avoidance, and ensuring contract fulfillment. All documents and information related to Fleye's customers are confidential and accessible exclusively to our employees and agents under current legislation. If you have witnessed anything beyond what is stated in this Privacy Policy, please notify us via email sent to lgpd@fleye.com.br.
Third Party/Employee Data:
Third parties/employees (service providers for conducting research) are chosen carefully because we care about our reputation in the market and adhere to good privacy and data protection practices. Just like customer data is collected, the same happens with our partners. This data is necessary for communication maintenance, compliance with legal obligations, contract execution, or the regular exercise of rights. This data will be archived as long as it is essential, and the third party can request access or updates by emailing lgpd@fleye.com.br. The data will be deleted when they are no longer necessary, retaining only what is imperative for legal obligations, dispute resolution, security maintenance, fraud prevention, or abuse avoidance, and ensuring contract fulfillment.
Research Participant Data:
Fleye collects personal and sensitive data from subjects who are part of the target audience of the research it conducts, with the collaboration of the participants to execute its activity. The personal and sensitive data of the participant are processed to ensure privacy and data protection, observing the purpose of creating the study, the interests of the clients and Fleye, and the principles laid out in current legislation. Examples of data that make up the information collection are: name, address, contact, behavioral and consumption profile, race or ethnicity, image and voice captured in photos and videos, and possible transcription of these, as well as all necessary information for the creation of the research, respecting the principle of limiting the collection only to essential data. The personal identification data (full name, address, ID, CPF) will not be shared with Fleye's clients, except if there is a normative or contractual provision to the contrary. After the research is conducted, the subject's data will undergo processes of anonymization or fragmentation to mitigate the risk of identifying the participant, retaining only what is necessary for the purposes stated in this Privacy Policy, observing what is agreed in the contract. Third parties and service providers are not authorized to disclose or market research participant data. In case of non-compliance, they will be held responsible for such infringements. If you are aware of such a situation, please notify us through the channel lgpd@fleye.com.br so that we can take appropriate action.
DATA PROCESSING ACTIONS
Access Policies:
Fleye adopts the Principle of Least Privilege methodology as its access policy to provide greater protection for the data of all users who circulate through the company. This means that access is gradually granted, and employees only have access to essential data for specific purposes. We believe that transparency with data subjects is important so that they have control over which of their data has been collected and how it will be processed, in accordance with the rights referred to in current legislation.
Collection: Data is received by Fleye in three ways:
• Google Form: a common survey form, and it is the responsibility of the Fleye team to configure the form and send it for response from the data subject. The response is stored with viewing and editing permissions only for individuals necessary for project completion, and when appropriate to keep it, anonymization is carried out at the appropriate time. Customer-provided list: the customer sends a contact list so that Fleye can perform the contracted activity.
• Typeform: a common survey form, and it is the responsibility of the Fleye team to configure the form and send it for response from the data subject. The response is stored with viewing and editing permissions only for individuals necessary for project completion, and when appropriate to keep it, anonymization is carried out at the appropriate time.
• Customer-provided list: the customer sends a contact list so that Fleye can perform the contracted activity. Fleye uses Google Workspace as a tool to ensure data security within its network. Thus, the data that is necessary for the project's execution is meticulously mapped and tracked by the platform itself, guaranteeing efficiency from inception to the end of its cycle. Fleye applies access controls and the Principle of Least Privilege, emphasizing that employees cannot access confidential information without explicit authorization from the data subject.
• Recording of Interviews: Fleye records interviews to improve the quality of research, obtaining consent to do so through appropriate documentation and confirming consent with participants during interviews.
• Storage of Information: All information, files, and data collected during the research process are stored in Fleye's drive within the specific project folder, so no file is kept locally or on removable media.
Sharing: Data sharing with third parties/employees is done through Google Workspace drive and Notion. Only the necessary files for the purpose described in this Privacy Policy are shared, and access is revoked after the activity is completed. Fleye provides access to Google Workspace to all its employees to facilitate communication and file storage, emphasizing the Principle of Least Privilege. After access is authorized, the use of any data or information is exclusively for the services performed at Fleye.
• Client Reports: Reports are delivered through Google Workspace via a shared folder with Fleye's client, retaining only the files being transferred at that moment. Access permissions to the folder are revoked after the client receives the files, and their files are deleted, unless otherwise stipulated in the contract.
• Anonymization: The personal data of the participants, which make up the deliverables for the client, are processed and anonymized using currently available technologies, removing the link between the data subject and the collected data, so that identification is no longer possible, except when the participant is an expert in a certain field, thus considering professionals with notorious recognition in their field of activity. Therefore, unless stipulated in terms or contracts, identifying data and opinions will be anonymized so that they can no longer identify the data subject, such as CPF, ID, phone number, specific address details (building number, apartment), workplace details, etc.
• Data Disposal and Deletion: After the project is completed, the collected/generated personal data will be disposed of. If there is an agreement providing for the maintenance of any type of personal data, this data is handed over to the client by Fleye's project manager with appropriate formalization. Fleye will ensure that all external file sharing has been removed by the project manager.
INTERNATIONAL DATA TRANSFERS
Fleye enters into contracts that authorize and establish rules for the international transfer of third parties, collaborators, research participants, or clients. The transfer only takes place by ensuring that the destination location, transfer methods, and processing agent observe the same level of guarantee provided in the applicable data protection legislation. Fleye's data is stored on Google Drive, and there may be international transfer of personal data when the server is completely unavailable in the storage location, to ensure the integrity of stored data.
SECURITY INCIDENT
Fleye is always vigilant to fully comply with the LGPD and any data protection laws. In the event of a security incident, the following steps will be taken:
• Adoption of internal measures already communicated to all employees;
• Communication of the incident to the data controllers; and
• If there is a risk of relevant harm, communication will be made to the ANPD and the data subject, informing them of the plan to restore the security of their data. We also rely on you to report any possible incidents you are aware of, informing us as soon as possible through contact: lgpd@fleye.com.br.
POLICY REVIEW AND UPDATES
In order to provide greater security and convenience to interested parties, Fleye will update this Policy whenever there is a change in its process or to comply with applicable legislation. Rest assured, you will be notified! Before protecting third-party data, ALL of us are data subjects and want our privacy to be respected too, so when it is envisioned and consented to, it is for reciprocal, legitimate, and transparent benefit. If you have any questions regarding this Policy, please signal via email. It will be our pleasure to clarify.
DATA PROTECTION IN INTERNAL DEPARTMENTS
• Finance Department:
Data maintenance by the finance department only occurs when there is a paid contractual relationship. When a specific term is signed, information is collected to make the payment. Thus, the data of customers, employees, third parties, and research participants are necessary for contractual execution, as well as compliance with current legislation regarding issuing invoices, statements, and the like. The data will be kept as long as a valid and effective contract exists, and the data subject, customer, employee, or third party can request access or updates to their data by emailing lgpd@fleye.com.br. The data will be deleted when they are no longer necessary or when the contractual relationship ceases, retaining only what is strictly necessary for legal obligations, dispute resolution, security maintenance, fraud prevention, or abuse avoidance, and ensuring contract fulfillment.
• Contracts:
Fleye's contracts are reviewed and negotiated continuously and periodically to ensure the best agreement and transparency in the relationships it maintains with third parties, collaborators, clients, and research participants, always in accordance with current legislation and observing, especially, the LGPD. The relationship maintained with research participants is transparent and straightforward, establishing a consent, confidentiality, and image rights transfer agreement, as well as confirming the signing of the agreement during the interview.
