2. Data Controller and Scope

LUCASM.DEV LTDA acts as the data controller for the personal data processed through these projects, except where a third-party service acts independently as its own controller.

3. Automatically Collected Information

The projects may automatically collect public data and non-personal information (that does not directly identify you), such as usage statistics, pages visited, approximate geolocation, operating system, browser, internet service provider, IP address, referral URL, exit pages, timestamp, heatmap, and similar interaction data.

4. Information That You Provide

The projects may also receive and store personal information that identifies you when you submit contact forms or provide information directly, including but not limited to your name, email address, and phone number.

5. Legal Bases for Processing

Depending on the purpose and jurisdiction, personal data may be processed based on: consent, legitimate interest, contract performance, legal obligation, and regular exercise of rights, always in accordance with applicable law.

6. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

The projects and related email communications utilize Cookies and similar tracking technologies, such as pixel, cache and local web browser storage, to save user preferences, execute offline experiences and recognize when you view or return to a page.

When you first visit a project, a consent notice will be displayed allowing you to accept or refuse non-essential cookies. You may change your choice at any time through the cookie settings available on the site. Only strictly necessary cookies are loaded prior to your consent.

The web services Cloudflare, Vercel, Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity are used on some projects and may place their own cookies on your browser. This policy does not cover third-party cookie practices. Please review each service privacy policy linked above.

7. Information Sharing

The projects do not sell your personal information. For technical and operational reasons, integrated third-party services may process limited personal data to perform their functions, in accordance with their own privacy policies.

8. Information Use

The projects use your information to:

  • Communicate with you, respond to inquiries, and provide requested content.
  • Analyze usage behavior in aggregate form to improve user experience.
  • Detect, prevent, and respond to illegal or harmful activities, such as cybersecurity incidents, copyright violations, and abuse.

To understand how third-party services process your data, please review their privacy policies.

9. Your Privacy Rights

Subject to applicable law (including LGPD Art. 18), you may request:

  • Correction of incomplete, inaccurate, or outdated data.

  • Review of decisions made solely by automated processing that affect your interests.

10. Opting Out

To opt out of third-party services, please review each provider policy individually. For infrastructure and backend services, complete opt-out may not always be technically possible.

For frontend analytics services, blocking may be possible. If you use an ad blocker extension, enable Global Privacy Control (GPC) settings, or use privacy-focused browsers, cookies and tracking technologies may be partially or fully disabled.

11. International Data Transfers

Because third-party providers may operate globally, your data may be processed in countries other than your own. When this occurs, data transfers rely on one or more of the following mechanisms, as applicable: adequacy decisions recognized by the relevant authority (ANPD, European Commission, or equivalent); Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) or equivalent contractual safeguards; or the specific consent of the data subject for the intended transfer. The third-party services listed in this policy maintain their own international transfer frameworks, detailed in their respective privacy policies.

12. Data Retention and Security

Personal data is retained only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy or to meet legal and regulatory obligations. Administrative, technical, and organizational measures are used to protect data against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, and disclosure.

13. Children and Teen Privacy

The projects are not directed to children and do not intentionally collect personal data from minors in violation of applicable law. If you believe data from a minor was submitted improperly, please contact us for prompt review and deletion when required.

14. External Resources and Third-Party Links

The projects may contain links to third-party websites and applications for convenience. Lucas Maués does not control and is not responsible for third-party content, policies, or practices.
