Delivery policy, deadlines and conditions

The athlete has three days to make payment by multibanco references after submitting the registration. After this period, if the payment is not made, the registration will be cancelled and the athlete must register again for the same event.

If the registration is submitted up to eight days before the registration deadline, the previous period will be only 24 hours.

In case of payment by credit card, your registration will be automatically recorded at the time of confirmation by the VISA system.

After registration is completed, the athlete is sent an email confirmation of their registration which allows them to collect the participation kit at the secretariat before the event.

The confirmation will be sent to the participant up to 5 days before the event.

By registering, the athlete assumes that they have consulted the regulations that are made available for each event at the time of registration.

Payment Methods

The invoice for participation in Globalsport events will be issued, if requested with a valid tax identification number, immediately after receiving the payment and sent to the recipient by email. If not requested, the invoice will be issued to the final consumer.

Payments can be made through Multibanco references or credit card.

Refund and cancellation policy

No refunds are made for cancellations of purchased registrations.

Refunds are also not made in case athletes, for any reason, cannot participate in the sporting events where they have registered.

There may be specifics for each event according to its regulations, which the athlete should consult.

Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy arises because we want to inform our Customers and Users about the general rules of privacy and processing of their personal data, which we collect and process in strict respect and compliance with the Personal Data Protection Law.

GLOBALSPORT respects the best practices in the field of security and protection of personal data, having approved a demanding program for this purpose, capable of safeguarding the protection of data that is made available to us by all those who in some way relate to the Company.

The rules set out in this Privacy Policy complement the provisions, regarding the protection and processing of personal data, provided for in the contracts that Customers enter into with GLOBALSPORT, as well as the rules set out in the Terms and Conditions that govern the offer of various products and services and which are duly advertised on the respective websites.

Please read this Privacy Policy carefully because, if you are accessing one of our websites, providing your personal data implies knowledge and acceptance of the conditions contained herein. Thus, by providing your personal data, you are authorizing its collection, use and disclosure in accordance with the rules defined here.

This Privacy Policy applies exclusively to the collection and processing of personal data carried out by GLOBALSPORT websites.

On GLOBALSPORT Group websites, you may find links to access other websites that are unrelated to GLOBALSPORT. The provision of such links is made in good faith, and the GLOBALSPORT Group cannot be held responsible for the collection and processing of personal data carried out on these websites, nor can it be held responsible for the accuracy, credibility and functionalities of websites belonging to third parties.

Thus, the provision of links to other websites unrelated to GLOBALSPORT does not imply any assumption of responsibility regarding such websites, and this Privacy Policy is therefore not applicable to them. The GLOBALSPORT Group considers it imperative to read the Privacy Policies of all websites you visit.

Personal data

When we refer to personal data, we mean any information of any nature and regardless of its medium, including sound and image, relating to an identified or identifiable natural person.

An identifiable person is considered to be one who can be identified directly or indirectly, namely by reference to an identification number or to one or more elements specific to their physical, physiological, mental, economic, cultural or social identity.

The entity responsible for collecting and processing personal data is GSX Portugal Lda, which provides you with the service and, in this context, decides which data is collected, the means of data processing, and for what purposes they are used.

GLOBALSPORT, within the scope of its activity, collects and processes personal data necessary for the provision of services and/or supply of products, processing in this context data such as name, address, telephone number, citizen card number, and email address.

Without prejudice to compliance with legal norms relating to the conservation and transmission of data for the purposes of investigation, detection, and repression of serious crimes, GLOBALSPORT only processes traffic and location data necessary for billing Clients and paying for interconnections.

Information about your location may also be recorded and transmitted to organizations with legal competence to receive emergency calls, for the purpose of responding to received calls.

When and how we collect your data

GLOBALSPORT collects your data by telephone, in writing, or through its websites, with your consent. As a rule, personal data is collected when the Client subscribes to one of our products or services.

Some personal data is mandatory to provide, and in case of lack or insufficiency of this data, GLOBALSPORT will not be able to provide the product or service in question, for which the Company will inform Clients of the mandatory nature of providing the data.

If you are not a GLOBALSPORT Client, your data will only be processed if you make it available to the Company, namely if you subscribe to receive newsletters, in which case the rules of this Privacy Policy will apply.

The personal data collected is processed electronically and in strict compliance with personal data protection legislation, being stored in specific databases created for this purpose, and under no circumstances will the collected data be used for any purpose other than that for which consent was given by the data subject.

In general, the personal data collected is intended for managing the contractual relationship, providing contracted services, adapting services to the Client’s needs and interests, information and marketing actions, as well as including the Client in subscriber lists.

However, you may provide us with personal data for other purposes, such as for sending complaints and suggestions, disseminating institutional information about the company and/or making known campaigns, promotions, advertising and news about GLOBALSPORT products and/or services, as well as for conducting market studies and evaluation surveys.

How you can access, rectify or object to the processing of your personal data

Under the terms of the Personal Data Protection Law, the data subject is guaranteed the right to access, update, rectify or delete their personal data, which can take place through the various contacts that GLOBALSPORT makes available.

How you can object to receiving contacts for marketing purposes

GLOBALSPORT may promote dissemination actions to its Clients, of new products or services through telephone, e-mail, SMS, MMS or any other electronic communications service, unless the Client has objected at the time of data collection.

If you do not wish to receive these communications, you can object, at any time, to the use of your data for marketing purposes, for sending informative communications or inclusion in lists or information services.

Communication of data to other entities (third parties and subcontractors)

GLOBALSPORT, within the scope of its activity, may resort to third parties for the provision of certain services. Sometimes, the provision of these services implies access to our Clients’ personal data by these entities. When this happens, GLOBALSPORT takes appropriate measures to ensure that the entities that have access to the data are reputable and offer the highest guarantees at this level, which will be duly enshrined and safeguarded in a contract to be signed between GLOBALSPORT and the third party(ies).

Thus, any entity subcontracted by GLOBALSPORT will process the personal data of our Clients, in the name and on behalf of GLOBALSPORT, with the obligation to adopt the necessary technical and organizational measures to protect personal data against accidental or unlawful destruction, accidental loss, alteration, dissemination or unauthorized access and against any other form of unlawful processing.

In any case, GLOBALSPORT remains responsible for the personal data that you provide to us.

Circumstances in which we transfer your personal data

The provision of certain services by GLOBALSPORT may involve the transfer of your data outside of Portugal.

In such cases, GLOBALSPORT will strictly comply with the applicable legal provisions, particularly regarding the determination of the adequacy of such country in terms of personal data protection and the requirements applicable to such transfers.
