Our website may contain links to third-party sites. We recommend that you read their privacy policies to understand how these companies handle your data before providing any personal information.
In this Privacy Policy, "Personal Data" refers to the set of information that relates to you and allows us to identify you, directly or indirectly. Your personal data may include, for example, your name, tax identification number, telephone contact, email address, and your interactions with us. We collect some of your personal data, for example, when you contact us.
We may also receive your personal data from other companies, specifically when they collect, process, or store it as part of the service they provide us.
What do we do?
When you contact us, we will process your personal data to respond to your queries or to clarify our services. You can reach us through the questionnaire/form or via the contact means disclosed on our site. We will collect your name, email address, telephone number, country of residence, profession, and message, so that we can identify you and thus provide accurate and tailored information. If you use a mobile network in the USA, by providing your phone number, you agree to receive text messages from Atlantic Bridge. Message and data rates may apply. Message frequency varies. Atlantic Bridge will not share your contact phone number with any other parties.
Should you become our customer, we will process the necessary information to provide our services and for billing purposes.
Where do we store the information and with whom do we share it?
We use service providers that enable us to create the necessary infrastructure to conduct our business.
Among the business solutions we have contracted for this purpose are Google, Typeform, Pipedrive, CloudTalk, and WhatsApp Business, specifically for information storage and management and communications. Check the Privacy Policy of these companies to understand how they handle your personal data.
Should you become our customer, depending on the services contracted, your personal data may also be processed directly by our partners in the provision of their services – such as banks and law firms - which will be properly and timely informed.
In the course of our activities, the information we process will be shared with our bank, our accounting service providers, and public administration entities such as the Tax Authority.
We will retain your information until the legal retention period expires or until the purposes for which it was collected are exhausted, whichever is applicable.
Lawful Basis
When we collect information through our contact form/questionnaire, our lawful basis is our 'Legitimate Interest' to process the personal data you enter into the form, in accordance with Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.
When there is any collection of information resulting from pre-contractual inquiries (service clarification or negotiation) or from the provision of the contracted service itself, our lawful basis is 'Pre-contractual inquiries/Contract execution' to process the necessary personal data, in accordance with Article 6(1)(b) GDPR.
When we need to comply with certain legal requirements arising from applicable legislation (e.g., billing or mandatory communications to regulators or administrative authorities), our lawful basis is the 'Legal Obligation' to process the relevant information, in accordance with Article 6(1)(c) GDPR.
