The hidra.pt website is owned by Hidra.pt.

1. Collection of Information

Whenever it is necessary to collect personal information for the provision of products through the Online Shop, such information will be used in compliance with the applicable data protection legislation and the requirements of the CNPD (Portuguese Data Protection Authority), in accordance with Law No. 67/98 of 26 October, in order to ensure the confidentiality and security of the personal data provided.

All information collected is provided voluntarily, whether through the website, online forms, questionnaires, service promotions and/or competitions.

Hidra.pt is responsible for the collection and processing of personal data.

2. Use of Information Collected

Hidra.pt undertakes to comply with the rules governing the processing of personal data in force in Portugal.

The information obtained may be used by Hidra.pt to send you information about urban infrastructure and water services in Portugal, and to collect general information in order to understand user profiles and thereby adapt Hidra.pt’s services to its users and customers.

The data collected is intended exclusively for use by Hidra.pt in order to respond to requests made through this website, and the privacy and protection of users’ data are guaranteed.

Hidra.pt may disclose a user’s personal information to other companies, such as carriers, where this is necessary to provide a product or service. In such cases, only the minimum information necessary to fulfil the request will be shared.

4. Data Security and Protection

Hidra.pt undertakes to adopt the necessary security measures to safeguard users’ personal data against misuse or unauthorised access.

However, as the Internet is not a 100% secure means of communication, Hidra.pt cannot guarantee the security of any information disclosed online, nor can it be held liable for any loss or damage suffered by users as a result of a loss of confidentiality of such information.

5. Liability

This website may contain links that redirect users to other websites outside the Hidra.pt domain. These websites may themselves collect data or request personal information.
