- Cookies and similar identifiers. Small data files placed in your browser or on your device to support Website functionality and to serve and measure advertising. See Section 7 for full details.
- Advertising identifiers. Ad partners such as Google may use pseudonymous identifiers to serve and measure advertisements. See Section 8.

- To serve and measure advertising, including non-personalized advertising where required.
- To respond to emails sent to contact@esporteamotor.com.br.
- To meet applicable legal obligations.
We do not sell personal information and do not engage in any practice that would constitute a “sale” or “sharing” of personal information under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA) as we understand those terms.

9. Analytics
Esporte a Motor may use privacy-friendly analytics tools to understand, at an aggregate level, how visitors discover and navigate the Website.

Where required, IP addresses are anonymized or truncated, and analytics cookies are placed only after consent has been collected.
10. Third-Party Services
The following categories of third parties may process data on our behalf or independently in connection with your visit to the Website:
- Hosting and content delivery — to ensure the Website is served reliably.
- Advertising networks — such as Google AdSense.
- Analytics providers — to measure aggregate traffic and usage.
- Security and anti-abuse services — to detect bots and prevent malicious activity.
Each provider operates under its own privacy policy. We encourage you to consult the terms of any provider whose service is relevant to you.
11. How Information Is Shared
Esporte a Motor does not sell personal information. Limited data may be disclosed to:
- Service providers working on our behalf (hosting, analytics, advertising, security).
- Regulatory bodies, law enforcement, or other parties when required by law or to defend our rights.
- A successor entity in the event of a merger, acquisition, or business reorganization, subject to the protections described in this Policy.
12. International Data Transfers
Because Esporte a Motor and certain of its service providers operate globally, personal data may be transferred to, processed in, or stored in countries other than your own — including countries that may offer different levels of data protection. Where such transfers occur, they are protected by appropriate safeguards, such as the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses or equivalent mechanisms.
13. Data Retention
We keep personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfill the purpose for which it was collected, including any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. Aggregated or anonymized data that can no longer be linked to you may be retained for longer periods for statistical analysis.
14. Security
We apply reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no internet transmission or electronic storage method is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute protection.

Depending on where you live, you may have some or all of the following rights with respect to your personal data:
- Right of access — to find out whether we hold your personal data and to obtain a copy.
- Right to rectification — to have inaccurate or incomplete data corrected.
- Right to erasure — to request deletion of your data under certain circumstances.

If a parent or legal guardian believes a child has submitted personal data, please contact us via the channel in Section 19 so we can investigate and, where appropriate, delete the information.
17. Do Not Track Signals
Certain browsers send “Do Not Track” signals. As there is currently no agreed industry standard for handling these signals, Esporte a Motor does not act on them. Instead, please use the cookie management and opt-out tools described in Sections 7 and 8.
