Who we are

Clube Equestre A Palmeirinha, Caminho das Ferrarias, 8135 Almancil, Portugal, is responsible for the personal data described here. Contact: eq.club.palmeirinha@hotmail.com ยท +351 966 962 123.

What we collect and why

This website has no forms and no accounts for visitors. The only sign-in is our own private one, used by the owner to add and remove gallery photos and videos; it keeps her email address and the files she uploads in our own storage.

When you contact us by WhatsApp, phone or email, we receive what you choose to send: usually your name, phone number, preferred date, number of riders and riding level.

We use this only to answer you and to arrange your ride (legal basis: steps taken at your request before a contract, and performing that contract). We do not sell your data or use it for advertising.

WhatsApp and other services

Booking buttons open WhatsApp, a service run by WhatsApp Ireland Ltd (Meta) under its own privacy policy. Links to Instagram, Google and Tripadvisor take you to those sites, which have their own policies.

How long we keep it

We keep booking messages only as long as needed to arrange and deliver your ride, and longer only where the law requires (for example, invoicing records).

Your rights

You can ask to access, correct or delete your data, to restrict or object to its use, or to receive a copy (portability). Write to eq.club.palmeirinha@hotmail.com.

You also have the right to complain to the Portuguese data protection authority, CNPD (www.cnpd.pt).

Cookies

This website does not use analytics or advertising trackers. We show our latest Instagram posts; the feed is supplied by Behold (behold.so), a feed service the stables use, and tapping a post opens it on Instagram (Meta). Behold and Instagram may see information such as your IP address and browser details when the feed loads.

We only load the Instagram feed if you click Accept on our cookie notice. If you click Decline, nothing from Behold or Instagram is loaded. You can change your choice at any time with the Cookie settings link at the bottom of this page.

It also remembers your language choice (English or Portuguese) and your cookie choice in your own browser. This stays on your device and you can clear it at any time in your browser settings.

Fonts are served from this website itself, not from third-party servers. Our hosting provider keeps standard technical server logs to keep the site secure and running.

Changes

If this policy changes, we will update this page and the date above.
