Braskem is committed to ensuring the privacy of the user, individual and/or legal entity, when using the website and using the services on the website, as per the terms below.
For Braskem S.A. and its group member companies (hereinafter jointly and individually referred to as "Braskem", "we", "us" and "our") it is an essential goal to ensure that we protect the information entrusted to us by our clients, our website visitors and all those with whom we communicate. At Braskem we are committed to upholding the highest privacy and data protection standards. This is critical for the maintenance of Braskem's reputation and for meeting the extensive legal and regulatory requirements imposed on us. We also believe it is important to be transparent when it comes to our information handling and we are committed to fulfilling the requirements under the Law 13.709/2018, commonly known as the General Data Protection Law (LGPD), as well as the relevant national implementation laws and the exercise of your rights thereunder. In this privacy statement we will use the terminology as defined in the LGPD. We will update this privacy statement regularly in order to ensure ongoing compliance with the LGPD and further developments and we advise that you check our website regularly for updates.
This privacy statement is mainly to provide information regarding how Braskem collects, processes and shares your personal data. This privacy statement also sets out the various rights you have in relation to the processing of their personal data.
This privacy statement is not applicable to any internet websites controlled by third parties not affiliated with the Braskem group that this website may link to. We assume no liability for the contents of such third party websites.
Braskem S.A., established in Sao Paulo, Brazil, will be considered the controller. Braskem has appointed several data processors to process personal data on its behalf and to act in accordance with the standards as required under the LGPD and the relevant national implementation laws for the purposes of providing you with our services as set out below. Data processors appointed by Braskem are also subject to the conditions set out in this privacy statement. Our contact details are set out below under the heading 'Queries and other rights'.
Braskem will collect information from the user's registration in the register available on its website. Upon registration, Braskem asks for the user's name, e-mail address and other personal information which, as they become available, will enable personalization of their contact with the website. After registration, the user is no longer anonymous to Braskem, and can benefit from a greater number of resources available on the website.
In addition to registering, Braskem may request the provision of other personal information from the user in special situations, including the following: a) when the user places an advertisement on the classifieds of the website; b) sending quotations for auctions on the website; c) sending suggestions or reporting a problem on the website. If the user contacts Braskem, he will be authorizing Braskem to keep a record of this correspondence. Occasionally, Braskem conducts surveys with users, for the purpose of internal research. In any area of the website where Braskem collects personal information, there will be a link to the Data Privacy Statement reproduced here.
The personal data we process may include:
As a general rule, Braskem collects personal data directly from you (or the company you work for). However, from time to time Braskem may utilise services of third parties to collect personal data, e.g. through publicly accessible sources and registers, such as public agencies or authorities.
We obtain the personal data in the following situations:
We process personal data set out under the heading 'Personal data collected' above for the following purposes:
We only process your personal data for the above purposes and ensure that it is only available to those people who have a legitimate need to know and who would require access to it.
At this time we do not process personal data via automated decision making nor do we engage in profiling.
We may collect personal data on our website through the use of cookies. The purpose of the cookies is to make visits to our website more pleasant and to obtain information on how the website is used and to optimize it for our visitors. You may find more information about cookies in our Cookie Statement .
Braskem will be able to compare user information with third party data, and disseminate statistics (for example, the percentage of audience formed by companies in a certain market segment) to describe the potential for possible partners, advertisers and any others.
Braskem may also disclose information about the user in special cases in which it is necessary to disclose that information to identify, contact or legally act against someone who may be violating (intentionally or not) Braskem's or harmed third parties' rights, or contrary Internet etiquette standards. Braskem may disclose information about the user when required by law, at the sole discretion of Braskem or the competent authorities.
We may share your personal data with the below third parties or successors thereof:
Disclosures to an entity as set out above, the subcontracting of services or the hosting of Braskem S.A.'s own servers may entail that we are required to transfer your personal data to countries which do not meet the standard of having an adequate level of protection. In such case we have procedures designed and in place to ensure compliance with the applicable data protection laws to protect your personal data. For transferring personal data within the Braskem group, the relevant group companies have entered into a data transfer agreement based on the EC Standard Contractual Clauses.
Braskem has taken appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect personal data against loss or against any form of unlawful processing.
The registration information on the website is password protected so that only the user has access to this personal information. Braskem recommends that the user does not disclose his password to anyone. Braskem will never ask for the user's password by phone or unsolicited email. The user must also remember to log out of the site and close the window of his browser when he finishes a browsing session. This helps to minimize the chances that others will gain access to the user's personal information and electronic correspondence, especially when the user shares a computer with someone or is using a computer in a public place.
No data transmission over the Internet is 100% secure. Consequently, although Braskem may use its best efforts to protect the user's personal information, Braskem cannot guarantee or ensure the security of any information transmitted to Braskem or provided while browsing the website, and it is at the user's discretion to assume that risk. Ultimately, the user is solely responsible for maintaining the privacy of their passwords and/or any information about their registration, and must be careful and responsible whenever they are browsing online. On the other hand, the user should be aware that he is solely responsible for qualifying his information as private or not, and thus decide, at his own risk and expense, to provide it in online browsing.
Also, the user must be aware that privacy rights are independent and not to be confused with intellectual property rights, image rights, rights to honor and reputation, and other personality rights, and that, therefore, not always information you provide on the site will be protected by them.
There are restricted access areas on the website. The user agrees that improper access to such areas will be considered an invasion of privacy, for all purposes.
The conditions governing the privacy of Braskem's information on the website are regulated in the website's Terms of Use, and Braskem recommends that the user consult it, in case of any doubt.
Braskem reserves the right to judge, in its sole discretion, except in the event of a decision by a competent authority, on the appropriateness of requests for information from a user made by another user on the pretext of having a common interest for the latter.
The website is not to be confused with the provision of Internet access, and Braskem should not be asked to provide information about the data flow of users who access the website, except in the case of determination by competent authorities, at Braskem's discretion.
Braskem is not obliged to keep the information contained on the user on the website for any predefined period.
We will only retain personal data about you for as long as necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected. Personal data will be retained in accordance with our retention policy. The retention period for each category of personal data is based on applicable statutory requirements and the purpose for which the information is collected and used.
The user can edit his information on the website at any time, using his identification (ID) and password on the website.
If the user wishes, their registration on the website may be deleted or deactivated, which will result in the inability to access any service on the website.
Data Subjects have rights under the LGPD regarding any personal data which we process. You may ask us to take the following actions in relation to your personal information that we hold:
If you have any questions, remarks, requests or complaints regarding the collection or use of (your) personal data or regarding this privacy statement, contact the Braskem data protection officer by emailing us at data_protection@braskem.com . Moreover, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with the relevant supervisory authority.
