Any information you provide will only be used for the purpose described and in strict compliance with the existing data protection legislation.
Nextbitt carries out operations and processing of your personal data as follows:

We use social media to promote our brand and to provide you with easy access to relevant information about products, services, events and job opportunities. Nextbitt is responsible for the content it publishes on social media platforms but not for the management of those platforms (creation of statistics or placement of cookies), nor does it have any influence over how your data is processed. The management of cookies and information collected by these entities is not carried out by us. | 
| Recruitment and selection | Pre-contractual diligence – we use your personal data to assess your job application and to keep you informed throughout the recruitment process. |

Companies within the Nextbitt Group or entities related to it;
Judicial bodies, law enforcement authorities, and administrative authorities.
Nextbitt retains personal data for the period deemed necessary and sufficient for the purposes that motivated its processing. The retention period for personal data varies depending on the purpose for which it is processed and the legal requirements applicable to data retention.
Once these periods have ended, personal data will be deleted using appropriate technical and functional safeguards, as documented in each relevant process.
Data subjects have the right to access their personal data, as well as the right to have it rectified or erased, the right to restrict processing, the right to object to processing, and the right to data portability.
Data subjects also have the right to withdraw their consent at any time, where processing is based on such consent, and to lodge a complaint with the Comissão Nacional de Proteção de Dados (CNPD) or another competent supervisory authority.
Personal data is processed within the territory of the European Union / European Economic Area (EU/EEA).
In the course of its activities, Nextbitt may transfer personal data to third countries located outside the European Union or not belonging to the European Economic Area.
In such cases, all necessary and appropriate measures will be taken to ensure the protection of your personal data.
One such situation occurs in relation to Nextbitt’s presence on social media platforms, over which Nextbitt has no influence regarding the data processing performed by those operators, nor precise knowledge of the data being processed in certain circumstances.
