5. PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA
Personal data is any information that can identify you either directly (for example, your name) or indirectly (for example, data presented under a pseudonym, such as a unique identification number). VIRTUALABOUR may collect your data under a legal or regulatory imperative, a contractual relationship, a legitimate interest of the same (in order to improve its products and services) and/or informed consent. We may share your personal data to comply with legal or contractual obligations, to improve our products and services or after having obtained your consent. Depending on the purpose for which they are collected, and exclusively to the extent of the need to know, VIRTUALABOUR may have access to some of your personal data. There are external entities that assist VIRTUALABOUR in providing IT services, such as web hosting and maintenance services, as well as software and applications that may contain data about you (such services may sometimes involve access to your data to perform the necessary tasks). We may occasionally disclose your personal data to other entities, as part of the services provided. In such cases, we require that these entities in question have in place appropriate technical and organizational measures to guarantee the security of your information in order to protect your personal data. VIRTUALABOUR may retain some of your personal data to comply with its legal or regulatory obligations, as well as to administer your rights (for example to assert claims in Court) or for statistical or historical purposes. When the use of your personal data is no longer necessary, it will be removed from VIRTUALABOUR's system or kept anonymous so that you cannot be identified from the data. VIRTUALABOUR is committed to keeping your personal data secure and takes all appropriate precautions to do so. As such, we are contractually required to do the same for trusted third parties who process your personal data on our behalf. We retain personal data related to your account for as long as you are a registered user and until you close your account. After your account is closed, we retain certain data necessary to: - Prevent fraud or abuse of use; - Satisfy legal obligations such as tax, accounting and auditing; - Decide a legal proceeding or dispute or comply with a request from a law enforcement agency. We will only store data that is relevant for such purposes, which we will delete as soon as the applicable retention periods or statutory limitation periods expire or as soon as the legal purpose has been fulfilled, and you will no longer receive communications (institutional or promotional), except for any previously scheduled communications. In any case, we ensure that your data is deleted without undue delay and as quickly as technically possible.

6. RIGHTS AND CHOICES

7. USER REGISTRATION
User registration allows access to several VIRTUALABOUR services. The subscription request requires the entry of a password and an email address, to which a confirmation link will be sent that will allow the registration to be validated. This password grants the user exclusive access to the management of the services. The data provided by users, professionals and companies will only be used to carry out the services selected by the user for which they were provided and for newsletters of the user and associated partners, and will not be added to another list, made available to other entities or used to send unrelated information.

8. PASSWORD
Access to the VIRTUALABOUR platform is subject to a password, which the user will provide upon registration. If the user forgets their password, they can recover it by providing the email address to which the account was registered. Recommendation: A good password should include letters, numbers and special characters, and should not be a common or easily recognizable word. The password is personal and non-transferable. The user is solely responsible for any use made of it.

9. OTHER PROVISIONS
VIRTUALABOUR reserves the right to change this Privacy Policy at any time and without prior notice, but undertakes to notify all its users at a later stage.
