Privacy policy

This policy explains what personal data we collect, why we collect it, how long we keep it and what you can do about it. Last updated: August 2026.

Who is responsible for your data

The Save Meia Praia campaign is the data controller for this website. Save Meia Praia is not yet a separate legal entity; while our own association is being established, Associação Miradouro da Luz (Portugal) acts as the responsible organisation and administers campaign donations. Once our association is registered, it will become the data controller and we will update this page.

How to contact us

Email savemeiapraia@gmail.com, or use the contact form on this website and choose the privacy and data option.

What we collect

The name, email address and message content you give us when you use the contact form or join the mailing list, plus any optional details you choose to add. We do not collect payment card data; donations are made by bank transfer directly to Associação Miradouro da Luz.

Why we process it

To reply to your message, to send the campaign updates you asked for, and to keep a basic record of campaign correspondence. We do not use your data for advertising and we never sell or rent it.

Legal basis

Consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR) for mailing list updates, recorded with the wording you agreed to and the time you agreed to it. Legitimate interests (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR) for replying to messages you send us and running the campaign.

How long we keep it

Mailing list details: until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete them, and in any case no longer than 24 months after the campaign ends. Contact form messages: up to 24 months, then deleted, unless a longer period is needed for an ongoing matter. You can ask us to delete your data sooner at any time.

Who processes data for us

Supabase (database and authentication, EU region) stores form submissions. Resend delivers campaign and notification emails. Google (Gmail) receives notification emails at our campaign address. These providers act as processors on our instructions and may not use your data for their own purposes.

Hosting

The website is hosted and served by Lovable (lovable.dev) on Cloudflare infrastructure. Standard server logs, including IP addresses, may be processed for security and reliability.

Your rights

You can ask for a copy of your data, ask us to correct or delete it, object to or restrict processing, ask for it in a portable format, and withdraw consent at any time. Every campaign email has an unsubscribe link. Email savemeiapraia@gmail.com and we will respond within one month.

Complaints

If you are not satisfied with how we handle your data, you can lodge a complaint with the Portuguese data protection authority, the Comissão Nacional de Proteção de Dados (CNPD), at www.cnpd.pt.

Cookies

This site sets no advertising or tracking cookies. We store your language choice and your cookie preference in your browser so the site behaves as you expect.

Corrections policy

If anything on this site is inaccurate, tell us and we will check it. Where we are wrong we will correct the page, mark the correction, date it and keep the original wording visible in the correction note. We do not silently edit or delete published material.

Save Meia Praia does not allege unlawful conduct by any person or organisation. We ask for disclosure and assessment.
