Data Protection Declaration

The protection and security of personal data are our highest priority. Messer Cutting Systems do Brasil Ltda strictly follows the General Personal Data Protection Law (LGPD - Law 3.709 / 18). Next, we will inform you about the type of data collected by us and the purpose for which it is used.

What is personal data?

The LGPD defines the term personal data as information related to the identified or identifiable natural person. This includes, for example, your name, phone number or date of birth, among others..

Data records

In general, it is not necessary for you to provide personal data in order to use our Internet pages. However, when you visit these pages, the web server automatically logs so-called log files. The data stored in them contains, for example, the type and version of the browser, the operating system used, the referrer URL (the page visited previously), the IP address of the requesting computer, the data and times of access to the server query. and the file requested by the client (file name and URL). This data is collected for statistical purposes only. There is no transfer to third parties, for commercial or even non-commercial purposes. Also, in principle, we do not combine this data with other data from other sources. The collection and processing of this data is done exclusively to enable the use of the website. Our legitimate interest is to provide the availability of our website with all its functionality.

This data stored in Server Log Files is only stored for a limited period and is automatically deleted at regular intervals after 30 days.

We reserve the right to verify this data later if we become aware of concrete reasons for the illegal use of the website. This verification is done exclusively to discover and prevent illegal use of our website. Our legitimate interest lies in ensuring the safety of our activity and preventing any inappropriate use.

 

Processing and use of personal data

We collect or process personal data only if you voluntarily transmit these details, such as in the form of a consultation. In that case, your consultation data, including the contact details provided, will be stored and used by us to serve the purpose, for example, of processing your consultation and handling subsequent questions that may arise. The legal basis for such storage and use of personal data is art. 7th, I of the LGPD.

If you provide us with services, sell or deliver goods, we will collect, store and use your data basically only to the extent necessary to provide the services or fulfill your order. In addition, it may also be necessary to pass on your personal data to the companies we employ to provide the services or help process the order. For example, they can be transport companies or other service agencies. The legal basis for both cases is art. 7th, V of LGPD.

In all cases where the data processing described above serves to fulfill the contract, it is necessary to make your personal data available for the conclusion of the contract (cf. art. 7, V of the LGPD). Without your personal data, we cannot fulfill the contract.

 

Data processing in job application processes

Your personal data that you provide to us as part of a job application (as a rule, contact details, resumes and application documents, summarized as "Application Data"), will only be stored electronically and used for the purposes of the selection process. The transfer of such data to third parties outside the Messer Cutting System will not occur. Only the following people will have access to your data: Human Resources team, technical line manager, company council (if any). If a second personal interview takes place, other people in the contracting area may receive your resume so that they can prepare for the interview. All persons in the process will be required to observe the confidentiality of the data and will treat your application as absolutely confidential.

If we are interested in maintaining your personal data after completing the selection process for a future opportunity, we will ask for your express consent, which we collect separately in the application process. In other cases, your data (registration data and interview results) will be completely deleted from our management system no later than six months after completing the registration process.

 

Storage duration and general exclusion

We will store your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfill the intended purpose (for example, conclusion of the contract, answer to your question) or justifiable reasons, under the terms of art. 7 of the LGPD, as long as there is a legal obligation to withhold, as compliance with tax and civil legislation, which prevents the deletion of your personal data; we will restrict the processing of your data; subsequently, your data will be deleted in accordance with legal regulations.

Enrollment data will be deleted within a maximum of six months after the completion of the employment selection process, unless you give us permission to keep it for longer.

 

Security of your data

The personal data you make available to us will be protected by technical and organizational measures to ensure that it is not accessible to unauthorized third parties. We recommend that you use the post office when transmitting very sensitive data or information. The complete security of data by e-mail cannot be guaranteed.

Social Bookmarks

We use so-called Social Bookmarks (for example, Facebook and Twitter) on our pages. These are Internet bookmarks with which the user of such services can collect links and news messages. They are connected only on our website as links to the corresponding services. Therefore, no automatic data transfer occurs when you visit our website. Only if you click on the connected graphics, you will be directed to the pages of the provider in question. So, this happens based on your permission, according to art. 7th, I of the LGPD.

Data transfer to third parties

In this context, the transfer to third parties is made only on the basis of your permission or for the purpose of fulfilling the contract. The transfer of data to national institutions and authorities that are entitled to receive it occurs only in accordance with the legal obligation to provide information. The same will occur in the event of a court decision that requires us to provide such information. In such cases, data transfer is necessary under the terms of art. 7, II of the LGPD, to comply with the legal obligations to which we are subject.

As external service providers contact your data, we guarantee, by means of technical and organizational measures and regular checks, that these regulations for the protection of your data are strictly observed by them.
