We carefully control the data used for these nudges, ensuring it is processed in a secure and ethical manner.
Data Analysis and Reporting
Our AI systems analyze large volumes of data to generate insights that inform our business strategies and decision-making processes.

Dubbed Translation in Videos: AI is used to create culturally appropriate dubbed translations of video content, ensuring that translations are both accurate and respectful of cultural nuances. We apply rigorous oversight to ensure these translations maintain the integrity and intent of the original content.

The Right to Non-Discrimination

Data subject’s consent (art. 7, I)

International Transfers
Where we transfer information that originates in Brazil to a country outside of Brazil, we will take steps to make sure such transfer is carefully managed to protect your privacy rights:
Transfers within the LHH Group of Companies may be covered by an agreement entered into by members of LHH (an intra-group agreement) which contractually obliges each member to ensure that your information receives an adequate and consistent level of protection wherever it is transferred within LHH in accordance with the LGPD.
Where we transfer your data outside of the LHH Group of Companies, including to other companies providing us with a service, we will obtain contractual commitments and assurances from them to protect your information, such as standard contractual clauses or binding corporate rules. In the lack of instructions from the local supervisory authority, we may follow the standard models adopted under the European Union or by other competent authorities until then.
We can also transfer personal information to countries recognized as providing adequate legal protection or where alternative arrangements are in place to protect your privacy rights.
If you want further information on the specific mechanism used by us when transferring your personal information out of Brazil, or you have questions about data protection or if you wish to contact our Data Protection Officer, or to exercise any of your rights related to your personal information, please fill in the applicable form:
