Privacy Policy

(v2.0 – 30-09-2024)

Gerenal Information

We know that you are aware of and concerned about your personal privacy interests. Redshift takes privacy policies seriously and considers them an important and relevant issue. This document describes Redshift’s policies and practices regarding the collection and use of your personal data and sets out your privacy rights. We recognize that information privacy is an ongoing responsibility, and we will therefore update this document periodically as we adopt new personal data practices or new privacy policies.

Chief Privacy Officer

Redshift is headquartered in Lisbon, Portugal. RedShift isn’t required to appoint a Data Protection Officer under GDPR but since privacy and personal data protection are fundamental to us, we have appointed a Chief Privacy Officer for you to contact if you have any questions or concerns about our personal data policies or practices. If you would like to exercise your privacy rights, please direct your query to RedShift’s Chief Privacy Officer at cpo@redshift-consulting.com.pt.

How we collect and use your personal information

Redshift collects personal information about its current and potential customers. With a few exceptions, this information is limited to the type of data that can be found: first name, last name, job title, company, work address, email address, and phone number. We use this information to provide goods and services to our customers or information about them. We do not sell personal information to anyone and only share it with third parties who facilitate the provision of our services.


Use of our website

As is true of most other websites, Redshift’s website collects certain information automatically and stores it in log files. The information may include Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, the region or general location where your computer or device is accessing the internet, browser type, operating system and other usage information about the use of the Redshift’s website, including a history of the pages you view. We use this information to help us design our site to better suit our users’ needs. We may also use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server and to administer our website, analyze trends, track visitor movements, and gather broad demographic information that assists us in identifying visitor preferences.


Data subject rights

The European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and other countries’ privacy laws provide certain rights for data subjects. GDPR provides the following rights for individuals:

  • The right to be informed
  • The right of access
  • The right to rectification
  • The right to erasure
  • The right to restrict processing
  • The right to data portability
  • The right to object
  • Rights in relation to automated decision making and profiling


Security of your information

To help protect the privacy of data and personally identifiable information, we maintain physical, technical and administrative safeguards. We update and test our security technology on an ongoing basis. We restrict access to your personal data to those employees who need to know that information to provide services to you. In addition, we train our employees about the importance of confidentiality and maintaining the privacy and security of your information. We commit to taking appropriate disciplinary measures to enforce our employees’ privacy responsibilities. We also have implemented an Information Security Management System (ISMS) compliant with the international standard ISO/IEC 27001.

Data storage and retention

Your personal data is stored by RedShift on its servers, and on the servers of the cloud-based database management services Redshift engages, located in Europe. Redshift retains data for the duration of the customer’s business relationship with Redshift and for a period of time thereafter to analyze the data for Redshift’s own operations, and for legal purposes. For more information on where and how long your personal data is stored, and for more information on your rights of erasure and portability, please contact Redshift’s Chief Privacy Officer at cpo@redshift-consulting.com.pt.
