For this reason, all personal information relating to users, customers or visitors, whether using our digital services or not, is treated in accordance with the Brazilian Personal Data Protection Law - LGPD.

Argus Solutions recognizes the importance of the privacy of personal data and in compliance with the Brazilian General Personal Data Protection Law – LGPD wants you to become familiar with the way in which your data is collected, stored and processed. This Privacy Policy describes the practices adopted in relation to the data collected in printed or digital forms through the website operated and controlled by Argus Solutions.

So, reinforcing our commitment to protect and safeguard all the data we collect we want to explain to you a little more about how we do this.

Why do we collect and process your Personal Data?

When offering our services, we need to collect and process your Personal Data for the following purposes:

a) Make it possible to serve customers and visitors interested in knowing more about our services;

Thus, when we carry out any activity that uses Personal Data, such as registration, various processes related to the development of the contracted service, we do this with great respect and responsibility and we take technical and administrative measures to ensure your privacy.

To this end, we have developed a Privacy Policy to specifically care for Personal Data, as an integral part of our SGPD - Data and Privacy Management System and which describes, among other things, how data is collected, stored, processed, shared, retained or removed.

Also, we are constantly improving our Privacy Policy and in it you will also find ways to contact us and clarify any doubts about Personal Data Privacy.
