1. Personal Data We Collect

1.1 Data provided directly by you: registration data (full name, corporate email, job title, company, phone number, and organization's CNPJ), contractual data (company name, fiscal address, banking details of authorized representative), and communications (content of messages via forms, email, chat, or support calls).

1.2 Data collected automatically: browsing data (IP address, browser type, operating system, pages visited, time spent, referral URL, and device identifiers), cookies and similar technologies (as per Section 8), and platform usage data (access logs, actions within CarbonOS, API queries, generated reports, and AI agent configurations).

We clarify that: (i) the agents predominantly process industrial and operational data, not personal data; (ii) when personal data is incidentally included in operational datasets, we apply minimization and pseudonymization techniques; (iii) no automated decision that produces significant legal effects on natural persons is made exclusively by our AI agents without human review; and (iv) Carbonova's AI models do not use clients' personal data for training general-purpose models.
