This Privacy Policy comes into force on the date of its publication on our website and applies to everyone who accesses it. Please read this Privacy Policy carefully and attentively, and save a copy for future reference.
When we use the terms “we”, “our”, “Limagrain”, “Geneze Sementes”, among others, we are referring to Limagrain Brasil S/A. When we use “you”, “your”, among others, we are referring to any natural person who accesses and/or uses our website.
Our website is owned by Limagrain Brasil S/A., a private legal entity registered under CNPJ no. 12.770.927/0005-13, headquartered at Rua Pasteur no. 463, conj. 701, sala B, Centro Empresarial Jatobá, Água Verde, Curitiba (PR), 80250-104, Brazil.
In Brazil, Limagrain is the controller of your information and personal data. To address matters related to this Privacy Policy, you should contact our Data Protection Officer at privacidade@limagrain.com.
The Data Protection Officer is responsible for accepting complaints and communications from personal data subjects, providing clarifications and taking action, receiving communications from the Brazilian National Data Protection Authority (ANPD) and taking action, advising Limagrain employees and contractors on the practices to be adopted regarding personal data protection, and performing the other duties determined by Limagrain or established in complementary rules.
By reading and accepting this Privacy Policy, you acknowledge its terms and conditions and agree to be fully bound by its provisions freely and spontaneously, and you expressly consent to our processing of your data for the purposes of your access to and/or registration on our website.
If you are using and/or have registered on our website on behalf of a legal entity, you declare that you are its legal representative, attorney-in-fact or agent duly authorized to represent it and act on its behalf, and, by reading and accepting this Privacy Policy, you acknowledge its terms and conditions and agree that the organization you represent is fully bound by its provisions freely and spontaneously.
Our goal is to provide this website so that you can learn about our brands, our products, our company and what we offer, as well as to provide technical information and encourage you to plant based on good practices. This Privacy Policy, therefore, applies exclusively to our privacy practices and not to those of third parties.
If you do not agree with the provisions of this Privacy Policy and the Terms and Conditions of Use, we ask that you do not access or register on our website, since the processing of data, including personal data, may be a condition for features of our website and for the exercise of our rights. Accessing and/or registering on our website implies express, unequivocal and full acceptance of the provisions of this Privacy Policy.
Since we may provide additional features and services, we may ask you to review and accept supplementary privacy policies. In the event of a conflict between those instruments and this Privacy Policy, the former shall prevail over the latter exclusively with regard to the use of the additional feature and/or service, limited to the conflict.
Your privacy is our priority. We understand that you trust our integrity when providing us with your information and data, which will be cared for and processed transparently and in accordance with good security practices.
We will collect and process information and data about you consistent with the type of browsing and/or registration intended, which may include, for example, among others:
In addition to the information provided, we may collect further information and data about you for a purpose previously and expressly informed.
When you contact our customer service team, the information you provide during the conversation may be collected, monitored and/or stored, both to ensure your security and privacy and to ensure the quality of our service.
Under no circumstances will we process sensitive personal data, as defined by Law no. 13,709/2018 (“LGPD”) as “personal data on racial or ethnic origin, religious belief, political opinion, membership of a trade union or of a religious, philosophical or political organization, data concerning health or sex life, genetic or biometric data, when linked to a natural person”, without your consent.
A cookie is a small file sent to your browser by a website you visit. The function of the cookie is to notify the website when you access it again. In this way, the website accessed will remember information about your visit and your behavior. On your next visits to the same website, your browsing will probably be more personalized, easier and more useful. Therefore, cookies are an important tool for the comfortable use of the internet, as long as they are not used in violation of your privacy. It is because of this tool, for example, that you receive ads for content you have already shown some interest in when visiting news sites, social media, among others.
When you access our website, we, including the companies we hire to track you, may send these small “cookie” files to your computer. When you log out or close your browser, this cookie will expire and cease to have effect. We also use more permanent cookies for other purposes, such as displaying your e-mail address on our sign-in form, so that you do not have to retype your e-mail address every time you log into your account.
We encode our cookies so that only we can interpret the information stored in them. You are free to refuse our cookies if your browser allows it, but this may interfere with your use of our website.
We and our service providers also use cookies to personalize our services, content and advertising, evaluate the effectiveness of promotions and promote trust and security.
You may find third-party cookies when using our services on certain sites that are not under our control (for example, if you view a Web page created by third parties or use an application developed by third parties, a cookie may be placed by that page or application).
When you access our website via a mobile device, we may receive or collect and store a unique identification number associated with your device (“device ID”), mobile carrier, device manufacturer and type, phone number and, depending on your mobile device settings, your geographic location data, including GPS coordinates (i.e., latitude and/or longitude) or similar information regarding the location of your mobile device.
We will not collect your precise geographic location without your consent, but we may know the city or country in which you are located. As with IP addresses, we may link any of the contact information or other personal information you provide as a result of your access to our website to the device ID from which you are accessing the website.
For control and security purposes, we will use the information and data collected exclusively for the purposes of our website, in order to: (i) present our products, technical, agronomic and commercial information, as well as where they can be found, provide technical support, evaluate professional information and offer job and internship openings, and encourage growers in general to plant based on good practices; (ii) maintain the security and proper functioning of our website; (iii) analyze usage profiles for statistics, improvements, definition of new features and data analysis; (iv) send information, updates, ads and advertising; (v) activate registrations and contacts.
For our exclusive analysis, we will collect information about your activity when using our website. We will also use information obtained through the processing of your data to send notices, information, updates, advertising, ads, among others, both through the website and to the e-mail address you registered. You will have the option to disable this function at any time. To do so, simply send an e-mail to privacidade@limagrain.com, stating that you no longer wish to receive communications, or simply click on the “remove” or “unsubscribe” link at the end of each e-mail.
We emphasize that we are mindful of the terms of Law no. 13,709/2018, the Brazilian General Personal Data Protection Law (LGPD), in the sense that the protection of personal data is founded on respect for privacy; informational self-determination; freedom of expression, information, communication and opinion; the inviolability of intimacy, honor and image; economic and technological development and innovation; free enterprise, free competition and consumer protection; and human rights, the free development of personality, dignity and the exercise of citizenship by natural persons.
In the course of our activities, corporate transactions may occur, in which case the information and data collected may be transferred to third parties without any prior notice or authorization. In that case, until any update or modification, this Privacy Policy and the way data is processed will be maintained under the terms set forth herein.
Apart from the situations expressly provided for in this Privacy Policy, we do not disclose to any third parties the personally identifiable information provided in your registration. However, if we receive an order issued by a competent authority in the performance of its legal duties (both in Brazil and abroad) or in the event of violations or suspected violations of this Privacy Policy or applicable law, we may make your personal information available, limiting it to the minimum necessary to achieve the required purposes.
If there are changes in the purpose and the way we use your data and information that are not compatible with your original consent, we will inform you of these changes in advance, and you may revoke your consent and cancel your registration if you disagree with the changes.
We do not share information that identifies you or makes you identifiable, such as your name or e-mail address, unless you give us specific permission to do so.
You expressly authorize us to process your personal data to send personalized ads and advertising, ours or our partners', both through the website and to the e-mail address you registered.
If you choose not to authorize us to process your personal data for personalized ads and advertising, your information will not be shared with partners. However, you may still receive ads that are not personalized for you.
Our website may also be integrated with or interact with third-party applications and websites, which must have their own terms and conditions of use and privacy policy. The use of third-party sites and applications will under no circumstances be governed by our Terms and Conditions of Use and this Privacy Policy.
For example, we use the Google Adwords Remarketing feature to serve ads on Google partner sites. This feature makes it possible to identify that you have visited our website, so that Google can show you our ad on different websites.
You understand and agree that we do not endorse and are not responsible for the behavior, features or content of any third-party site and application, even if initially accessed through our website, or for any transaction you may carry out with a third-party provider of any of these sites and applications.
We do not guarantee the compatibility, or the continuity of any existing compatibility, between our website and those that may be provided by third parties.
To run ads and notices, we will require our partners to declare that they fully and completely agree with the content of this Privacy Policy, and we will require them to undertake to respect it for all legal purposes and effects.
We understand the importance of the security of your information and data. That is why we follow best practices to keep all the data we receive protected. However, even though we take appropriate technical measures to protect your information and data, we cannot guarantee the full security of your data and information, nor can we assume any responsibility for interceptions or unauthorized access.
We process your data in accordance with data protection legislation. We use technical and administrative measures to protect your information and data from unauthorized access and from accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, communication or dissemination, as well as to prevent damage resulting from its processing.
If we suspect or detect any security or privacy breach, we may, as a measure to protect your data, suspend your registration and partially or fully suspend the operation of our website, both without prior notice.
You should also be careful and take steps to protect yourself from unauthorized, unlawful or accidental access to your registration, such as using strong and unique passwords for your registration on our website, accessing it only from your personal devices, and logging out after accessing our website.
Your password is an important security element, when requested. Therefore, since it is strictly personal, you are responsible for keeping your password confidential and are fully responsible for all activities that occur through the use of your login and password. You are equally responsible for ensuring the security and protection of your information and data, and must take precautions to prevent data breach incidents.
If you suspect that your account or information is not protected or has been breached, notify us immediately at privacidade@limagrain.com.
As required by law, we will notify the competent authority and the data subject of any security incident that may entail relevant risk or damage to them. That is why it is extremely important that your contact details are properly up to date.
As a personal data subject, you have the right to file complaints with the Brazilian National Data Protection Authority (ANPD) if you have concerns about or identify an incident related to the way we process your personal data.
We will keep the processing operations of your personal data only for the time necessary to fulfill the purposes for which we collected them, including for the purpose of complying with any legal or contractual obligations, accountability or requests from competent authorities.
When you register, the personal data we collect will be kept for as long as you keep your registration active. If you request the deletion of your personal data and/or your registration, we will delete or anonymize your personal data in accordance with the law. We would like to stress that it will not be possible to recover deleted data or registrations.
The processing of your personal data may also end as a result of a decision by a competent authority or at our discretion.
Your personal data will not be deleted if:
We will keep records of access to our website (IP address, date and time, name and CPF, when provided to us) for a minimum period of six (6) months, as determined by arts. 5, items III and VIII, and 15 of Law no. 12,965/2014.
To carry out our activities, we may share your personal data with other Limagrain companies, its affiliates and parent company, including those located in other countries.
We may also subcontract the processing to, or share your personal data with, third parties located in countries other than your country of residence. Consequently, your personal data may be subject to privacy laws different from those in force in your country of residence. In such situations, we will ensure that the sharing of your personal data is carried out in accordance with applicable privacy laws.
By providing us with your personal data, you agree to the collection, transfer, storage and processing of your information outside your country of residence (for example, Brazil), in accordance with this Privacy Policy. The data protection laws and other laws of the countries to which your information may be transferred may not be as comprehensive as the laws of your country.
We believe that, as the subject of your data, you should be guaranteed easy and quick access to information about the data we collect and process, as required by current legislation.
Therefore, at any time and upon request sent to privacidade@limagrain.com, we guarantee you:
As the subject of your personal data, you are also guaranteed the right to petition regarding your data against the controller before the competent authority and the Judiciary.
You may always choose not to disclose your data for our collection and processing. However, you should be aware that, given the usefulness of some of this data, your registration may be rejected or suspended, and you may be unable to use all the features and experiences provided by our website.
We will interpret your compliance or non-compliance with this Privacy Policy according to our internal criteria and understanding.
We may change and update this Privacy Policy whenever we deem it necessary, when applicable law requires it or if so determined by a competent authority. When this happens, the updated version will be available on our website.
Changes and updates, when they occur, will apply from the moment they are made available on our website. If you do not agree with the changes, you should not access our website and you have the right to cancel your registration, as indicated in this policy and in our Terms and Conditions of Use.
Whenever you deem it necessary, including to clarify questions regarding this Privacy Policy or to file complaints and reports, please contact us at privacidade@limagrain.com or by mail at Rua Pasteur no. 463, conj. 701, sala B, Centro Empresarial Jatobá, Água Verde, Curitiba (PR), 80250-104, Brazil.
