How we handle your data

Last updated: June 10, 2026

BrazilOffshore is an editorial publication. We collect the minimum needed to deliver our content. This policy explains what we collect, why, and your rights under the Brazilian General Data Protection Law (LGPD, Law 13.709/2018).

Data controller

BrazilOffshore, editor: Arthur Monteiro. Contact and DPO: arthurrlmonteiro@gmail.com.

What we collect

When you subscribe to the newsletter, we store: your email address, the date and IP of signup, subscription status (pending, confirmed, unsubscribed), and the exact consent text you agreed to at signup. The site also records anonymous access statistics (page viewed, country, device, time on page) using an identifier derived from your IP combined with a salt that rotates daily — the IP itself is never stored, and the same visitor produces a different identifier the following day, preventing any cross-day tracking. We do not use advertising trackers.

Cookies & Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics 4 to understand, in aggregate, how visitors use the site (most-read pages, traffic sources, device, country). It is activated only if you click "Accept" on the cookie notice — by default it starts disabled ("denied" consent mode), setting no cookies and sending no data. The legal basis is your consent (LGPD art. 7º, I). If you accept, Google acts as a data processor and may process data on servers outside Brazil (international transfer, LGPD art. 33); collection uses IP anonymization. You can decline at any time — declining does not affect your browsing — and the notice reappears if you clear your browser cookies. We do not use this data for advertising, nor do we cross-reference it with your newsletter subscription. Google's Privacy Policy is at policies.google.com/privacy.

Purpose

Solely to send the daily editorial digest. We do not sell, trade, or share your email with third parties.

Legal basis

Freely-given, informed, and unambiguous consent, provided by you at signup (LGPD art. 7º, I). The exact text you agreed to is recorded in our database as evidence.

Sharing

Email delivery is operated by Resend Inc. (data processor), which processes your email only to deliver the message. Aggregate usage statistics are processed by Google (Google Analytics), only if you consent to cookies. Both are subject to their own privacy terms. No other third party receives your data.

Retention

We retain your email while your subscription is active. After cancellation, we keep the address in a suppression list for 12 months solely to prevent accidental re-subscription. After that period, we delete it completely.

Your rights

Under LGPD (art. 18) you have the right to: access your data, correct incomplete or outdated data, request anonymization or deletion, request portability, and revoke consent at any time. To exercise any of these, email the DPO above or click "unsubscribe" in any email you receive from us.

Security

Your data is stored on encrypted infrastructure (Supabase, sa-east-1 region). Access is restricted to the responsible editor.

Changes to this policy

Material updates will be communicated to subscribers by email at least 30 days in advance. The current version is always on this page.
