Your privacy.

Who is responsible

The controller of your data is Igreja Vida Lisboa, located at Caminho das Lezírias 12, 2670-457 Loures, Portugal. For anything about personal data, write to geral@vidalisboa.pt.

What data we collect and why

We only ask for what is needed for each request you make:

• Contact form: name, email and message, to reply to you.
• Event and programme sign-up: name, email, phone and number of participants, to organise the event and tell you about changes. In paid events, payment is handled by the payment provider.
• Request to serve: name, contact, area of interest and availability, to connect you with a team.
• Comments on celebrations: name and comment text, which become visible once approved by the team.
• Get updates: only your email, to send you the articles and notices you asked for.

Our legal bases

We process your data on the basis of your consent (for example, the message you send us or subscribing to updates), carrying out the request you make (signing up to an event), compliance with legal obligations (for example, tax, for payments) and our legitimate interest in keeping the site secure.

How long we keep it

We keep data only for as long as necessary:

• Event sign-ups: 12 months after the event; then we anonymise them (we keep only the number of participants).
• General contact outside an active process: 12 months with no reply or action.
• Requests to serve: while the process is active and, once closed, 12 months with no further contact.
• Published comments: while they are visible, until you ask for their removal.
• Email updates: until you unsubscribe (every message has a link to do so).
• Payments: for the period required by Portuguese tax law.

Who processes data for us

We use service providers who process data on our behalf and may only use it for that purpose:

• Vercel: website hosting.
• Supabase: database.
• Cloudflare: DNS, abuse protection (Turnstile) and image storage.
• Resend: sending emails (replies, confirmations and updates).
• IfThenPay: payments for paid events, when available.
• WhatsApp: when you write to us that way, the conversation is subject to that service’s rules.

Cookies and analytics

The site only uses what is essential for it to work (for example, remembering the language you chose). Usage analytics tools, which may use cookies, are only loaded if you accept, and you can refuse without losing any functionality. Before you accept, no analytics is loaded.

We also use technical error logging, without personal data, and abuse protection on forms, based on a legitimate interest in security.

Photos and video

We only publish photos or videos in which people can be recognised with the written consent of those who appear (and, for minors, of their parents or guardians). You can ask for an image to be removed at any time, using the contact below.

Your rights

You may at any time ask for access to your data, rectification, erasure, restriction of or objection to processing, portability, and withdraw the consent you gave. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Comissão Nacional de Proteção de Dados (CNPD), at cnpd.pt.

How to ask

Write to geral@vidalisboa.pt, saying what you want. We reply within one month at most.
