Privacy Policy

The Verse Boutique ApartHotel is committed to safeguarding your right to privacy and maintaining the confidentiality of your personal data. The Privacy Policy of The Verse Boutique ApartHotel applies to any and all processing of personal data conducted within the scope of our activities, whether it concerns customers, employees, service providers, candidates, suppliers, or any third party in the professional and commercial context. In this regard, we have adopted administrative measures and internal procedures to comply with the new General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

The Verse Boutique ApartHotel is committed to the confidentiality and protection of the data of all individuals with whom it interacts, in accordance with legal terms and in compliance with the GDPR. The processing of personal data is governed by Law 67/98 of October 25, on the Protection of Personal Data.

Where and how is personal data collected?

The Verse Boutique ApartHotel collects personal data mainly through its website at www.theverse.com and within the scope of its professional activities. To proceed with data processing, we may collect, record, organize, store, alter, retrieve, consult, use, or make available, delete, or destroy the personal data of our customers and employees through automated or non-automated means.

Why is data collected?

The Verse Boutique ApartHotel collects and processes personal data for two purposes: in the context of its commercial or professional activities and for marketing purposes, with the explicit consent of the data subjects. We will not process the data in ways that are incompatible with these purposes.

All information collected by The Verse Boutique ApartHotel is for its exclusive use, and we commit not to sell, trade, rent, or share it with third parties without the explicit consent of the user, except in the case of a judicial decision.

Our goal in collecting data is to fulfill legal obligations with the competent authorities (in the case of customers and employees) and to promote our services, projects, and other useful information such as news and tips via email (in the case of marketing actions).

The data collected will only be necessary and appropriate to achieve the described purposes and will be kept up to date. Personal data may be preserved for a predefined period considering the purposes of the processing and will be deleted or pseudonymized after the retention period.

What are the rights of data subjects?

Data subjects have the right to exercise their rights regarding the processing of their personal data. In case of doubt, opposition, or any other matter, they may contact The Verse Boutique ApartHotel through the contact information we provide for this purpose. The new regulation introduces several rights for data subjects, including:

Right of access – Data subjects have the right to know all the data collected about them and the purpose of its use.

Right to rectification – Data subjects may request that their information be updated or corrected.

Right to erasure (Right to be forgotten) – Data subjects may request that their information be erased, meaning that any information up to that point will be deleted. Please send an email to info@theverse.com with identifying information (e.g., email).

Right to data portability – Data subjects may request that their information be transmitted to another organization or competitor.

Right to object – Individuals may request that their information not be subject to certain processing or uses. This can be done through an opt-out mechanism.

Right to lodge a complaint – If the data provided by the data subject is not processed in accordance with legal provisions, the data subject may lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority, which in Portugal is the National Data Protection Commission (CNPD).

Other data processing

The Verse Boutique ApartHotel will notify you in a timely manner if it is necessary to process your data for a new purpose not covered by this document.

The Verse Boutique ApartHotel reserves the right to amend this Privacy Policy whenever necessary to comply with current laws and regulations. These changes will always be communicated to employees, customers, or any other interested parties via email, notice, or the most convenient method.
