Who is responsible

The data controller is Leandro Rafael Borba dos Santos Cerqueira, taxpayer number (NIF) 244391394, Rua de São Pedro, N15 5ºET, email [email protected].

This policy covers three things: this website, the customer area where you manage licenses and orders, and the Volath desktop app when it talks to our license server. For any privacy question or request, write to [email protected].

Data we collect

Contact form: the name, email address, company, plan of interest and message you type. We use them only to reply to you.

Customer account: your name, email address and a password stored only as a one-way hash. If you turn them on, two-factor authentication and passkeys store the secrets and public keys needed to verify you.

Billing details: the name, country, address, postal code, city and VAT number you give us so that we can issue invoices.

Orders and licenses: which plan you ordered, the amount, the dates, the invoice and the license keys linked to your account.

License checks from the desktop app: the license key, a random installation identifier generated by the app, the app version, the number of active users in the app and the time of each check. Our server also sees the IP address of the request, as every server does. We do not receive your tickets, code, repositories or AI conversations: those stay on your computer.

Emails we send you about your account: order confirmations, license delivery, invoices, renewal reminders and security messages.

Analytics: only if analytics is enabled on this site and you accept the cookie notice, usage statistics are collected through the analytics provider. Without your consent no analytics script is loaded.

How long we keep data

Account and license data: while your account exists and your license is valid, and afterwards only as long as needed to handle claims.

Invoices and accounting records: 10 years, as required by Portuguese tax law, even if you delete your account.

Contact messages: up to 12 months after the conversation ends.

License check records and server logs: up to 12 months.

Cookies and analytics

The customer area uses only the cookies it needs to work: a session cookie that keeps you signed in, a security token that protects forms, and small preference cookies for the theme and the sidebar. They do not track you across sites.

This website sets no analytics cookies unless analytics is enabled and you accept the cookie notice. Your choice is stored in your browser's local storage so we do not ask again.

You can change your choice at any time with the Cookie settings control in the footer. Withdrawing consent takes full effect when the page is reloaded.

Who receives data

We do not sell personal data. We use service providers that process data on our behalf, under contract: hosting, email delivery and, if enabled, analytics (Google Analytics). When online payments are offered, the payment provider receives what it needs to take the payment; we never see your card number.

The desktop app also checks GitHub for new versions, so GitHub sees the IP address of that request according to its own privacy statement.

Where a provider is outside the European Economic Area, the transfer relies on the safeguards the law provides for, such as an adequacy decision or standard contractual clauses.

We may disclose data when the law requires it, for example to tax authorities.

Your rights

You have the right to access your data, to have it corrected or erased, to restrict or object to its processing, to receive it in a portable format and, where processing rests on consent, to withdraw it at any time. To use any of them, write to [email protected]. We answer within one month.

You can also lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority: in Portugal, the Comissão Nacional de Proteção de Dados (CNPD), www.cnpd.pt, or the authority of the country where you live.

Providing your data is needed to create an account and place an order; without it we cannot provide the service. Contact and analytics data are optional.

Security

Passwords are stored hashed, connections are encrypted, license answers are cryptographically signed and access to the systems is limited to what is needed. No system is perfectly secure; if a breach affects your data we will notify you and the authority as the law requires.

Changes to this policy

We update this policy when what we do changes. The date above shows the last update; for significant changes we also tell account holders by email. Last updated: 12 October 2026.
