1.2. Website use
Accessing and browsing the website does not imply the provision of personal data.

In this case, it will only be possible to take advantage of this functionality if you provide the requested personal data, which will be processed exclusively under the terms and for the purposes described here.
1.3. Participating in events and activities
Participating in events, conferences and activities held at TM, including the ones promoted by the Educational Service, may imply the collection of images (photography, video, or by other technical means) of the participants. The collection, use and diffusion of these materials are carried out with the express signed consent of the parties, in accordance with the specific Consent Declaration. The consent is not required if the image reproduction is framed in public places, public events of public interest or that have taken place publicly, in accordance with the provisions of paragraph 2 of article 79 of the Portuguese Civil Code (Right to image).

Teatro Micaelense guarantees that, before any collection of images, those responsible are informed in detail about the purposes of collection, the means of dissemination and the duration of their use.
