Data controller
The controller of your personal data is GDA Alcochete SAD, with its registered office at Alameda G.D. Alcochetense, 2890-110 Alcochete, Portugal, and home ground at Estádio António Almeida Correia (Fóni).
For any question relating to privacy or data protection, you may contact us at ask@gdasad.com.
Data we collect
We collect only the personal data you voluntarily provide through the website’s forms, together with limited technical data needed for the site to operate securely.
- Contact form: topic, name, email, organisation (optional) and message.
- Partnership form: organisation, website, industry, contact name, role, email, phone, areas of interest, budget scale, timeline and message.
- Newsletter: your email address only.
- Technical data: IP address (used transiently for anti-spam rate-limiting and in server logs) and a language-preference cookie.
Purposes and legal bases
We process your data only for specified, legitimate purposes, relying on one of the legal bases set out in Article 6 of the GDPR.
- Enquiries and partnership requests: the Club’s legitimate interest in responding to your request and/or steps taken at your request prior to entering into a contract.
- Newsletter: your consent, which you may withdraw at any time via the unsubscribe link.
- Security logs: the Club’s legitimate interest in protecting the website against abuse and keeping it secure.
Processors and third parties
We rely on a small number of trusted service providers that process data on our behalf, subject to contractual obligations of confidentiality and security. We do not sell your personal data.
- Resend — delivery of notification and confirmation emails relating to the forms; it may process data outside the European Union under appropriate safeguards (Standard Contractual Clauses).
- Plausible Analytics — privacy-friendly, COOKIELESS analytics; it collects no personal data and sets no cookies, and the data is aggregated, anonymous and EU-hosted.
- Railway — cloud hosting of the website.
International transfers
Where a processor handles data outside the European Economic Area, we ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place, such as the Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission, so that a level of protection equivalent to that of the GDPR is maintained.
Retention periods
We keep enquiry data only for as long as necessary to handle the request and for a reasonable follow-up period.
Newsletter data is kept until the subscriber unsubscribes.
Your rights
Under the GDPR you have a number of rights over your personal data, which you may exercise by emailing ask@gdasad.com.

- The right to erasure (the “right to be forgotten”).
- The right to restriction of processing.

Complaints to the supervisory authority
If you believe that the processing of your data infringes the applicable law, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Portuguese supervisory authority, the Comissão Nacional de Proteção de Dados (CNPD).
Users resident in the EU/EEA may also contact the supervisory authority in their own country.
Data security
We apply appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against loss, unauthorised access, disclosure or alteration, including anti-spam rate-limiting and the keeping of server logs for security purposes.
