This Privacy Policy describes how Giacomini Comércio de Auto Peças Ltda ("we," "our" or "the Company") collects, uses, stores and protects the personal data of our customers, website visitors and all others whose data is processed in connection with our retail auto parts activities in Parque Maria Domitila, São Paulo, SP.
As a registered limited company (Ltda) retailing new auto parts and accessories, we are fully committed to compliance with the LGPD (Lei nº 13.709/2018), the CDC (Lei nº 8.078/1990), applicable CONTRAN and DENATRAN requirements for the commercialisation of vehicle safety components, and applicable tax legislation in the State of São Paulo.
Introduction and Scope
This Policy applies to all personal data processed by our auto parts retail business — including individual customers and workshop professionals who purchase parts from us in-store or via WhatsApp, website visitors and anyone whose data is processed in connection with our retail activities. Most in-store purchases are anonymous; this Policy covers the specific circumstances in which personal data is collected.

Personal Data We Collect
- NF-e with CPF (individual customers, when requested): Where a customer requests the NF-e to be issued with their CPF — for instance to participate in the Nota Fiscal Paulista programme or for vehicle maintenance records — we collect and process the CPF solely for that fiscal purpose. This is always at the customer's request, never mandatory for the purchase.
- NF-e with CNPJ (workshops and fleet buyers): Where a workshop, fleet operator or company purchases parts and requires the NF-e issued to their CNPJ — company name, CNPJ and the responsible contact's name.
- WhatsApp parts inquiry data: Name, phone, vehicle details (make, model, year) and part description — where customers or workshops inquire about part availability or place orders via WhatsApp.
- Contact and inquiry data: Name, phone and message when submitting inquiries via our website form.
- Technical website data: IP address, browser type, pages visited and access times.

We do not sell, share or use customer data for marketing or advertising purposes. CPF data collected for NF-e purposes is used only for the specific fiscal transaction.
International Transfers
Our retail operations are in São Paulo, SP. All customer and fiscal data is stored in Brazil. Any technology platforms used for our website or WhatsApp communications that operate on international servers do so under the guarantees of Art. 33 of the LGPD or recognised adequacy mechanisms.

Protection of Minors
Auto parts purchases are typically made by adults — vehicle owners, workshop professionals and fleet managers. We do not intentionally collect personal data from children under 13. In-store purchases are anonymous; WhatsApp and website inquiries are expected to be made by adults. We do not have any services or marketing directed at minors.
Sensitive Data & Vehicle Safety
We do not collect sensitive personal data as defined in LGPD Art. 5º, II. As a retailer of new auto parts, we note:
Vehicle identification data (make, model, year) provided for parts inquiries via WhatsApp is used only to identify the correct part — it is not retained beyond the inquiry period and is not used for any other purpose.
Updates to this Policy
This Policy may be updated to reflect changes in our activities, the LGPD, ANPD guidance, CONTRAN regulations or applicable tax legislation in São Paulo. Material changes will be communicated via our website or in-store notice.
