How WTM International collects, uses, stores and protects your personal data.
This Privacy Policy describes how WTM International collects, uses, stores, shares, and protects personal data obtained through our websites, landing pages, in-person and virtual events, social media channels, and direct interactions with our team. By using any of our digital properties or providing your information to us, you acknowledge the practices described below.
WTM International operates through two Brazilian legal entities, each registered under its own corporate Tax ID (CNPJ). Both entities act as joint data controllers for the personal data processed in the scope described here and apply consistent privacy practices across all touchpoints.
For any privacy-related question, request, or complaint, you can reach our Data Protection Officer (DPO) at dpo@wtmdobrasil.com. We treat every inbound request seriously and respond within the timeframes required by applicable law.
In accordance with the Brazilian General Data Protection Law (LGPD) and equivalent regulations in other jurisdictions where we operate, you, as the data subject, may exercise the following rights at any time, free of charge, regarding the personal data we hold about you:
To exercise any of these rights, send your request to dpo@wtmdobrasil.com. We may ask for additional information to verify your identity before fulfilling the request, in order to protect your data against unauthorized access.
Depending on how you interact with us, we may collect the following categories of personal data, either directly from you or through your use of our digital properties:
For the purposes of this policy, we classify users in three ways depending on the depth of the relationship:
We process personal data under specific legal bases provided by the LGPD, with legitimate interest, consent, contract performance, and legal/regulatory obligations being the most relevant. The processing purposes include:
When we rely on legitimate interest, we perform a balancing test to ensure our purpose does not override your fundamental rights and freedoms. When we rely on consent, you may withdraw it at any time without affecting the lawfulness of past processing.
We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to make our websites work, understand how visitors use them, and deliver more relevant communications. The main categories we use are:
| Category | Purpose | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Authentication, security, load balancing, language preference. | Session, 1 year |
| Analytical | Google Analytics, internal analytics. Measure page views, sessions, conversions, and content engagement. | 1 day, 2 years |
| Marketing automation | RD Station, lead scoring, form attribution. | 30 days, 2 years |
| Advertising | Google Ads / DoubleClick, Meta Pixel, LinkedIn Insight Tag. Audience building, retargeting, conversion measurement. | 30 days, 9+ years |
You can manage or disable cookies at any time through your browser settings or the cookie banner shown on our sites. Disabling certain categories may affect site functionality or the relevance of content you see.
We share personal data with carefully selected third parties only when necessary to operate our business, deliver the services you requested, or meet legal obligations. Recipients include:
We do not sell personal data to third parties. Any international transfer of personal data is done with appropriate safeguards in place, as required by the LGPD and the regulations of the destination country.
We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purpose for which it was collected, or to comply with legal, contractual, or regulatory obligations. Examples of retention periods we apply:
After the retention period, we anonymize the data so it can no longer identify an individual, or we securely delete it. We apply technical and organizational safeguards proportional to the risk: encryption in transit (TLS), encryption at rest where appropriate, role-based access controls, multi-factor authentication for administrative access, regular security reviews, and incident-response procedures.
Despite our efforts, no system is 100% secure. In the event of a security incident that creates a risk or relevant harm to data subjects, we notify the affected individuals and the National Data Protection Authority (ANPD) within the legal deadline.
For privacy complaints, requests under LGPD or equivalent law, or any concern about how we handle your data, reach out to our DPO at dpo@wtmdobrasil.com. We acknowledge each request within five business days and provide a substantive response within the legal deadline (15 days for most LGPD rights, extendable in limited cases).
If you believe your request was not properly addressed, you may file a complaint directly with the Brazilian National Data Protection Authority (ANPD) at gov.br/anpd, or with the data protection authority of your country of residence.
