Provenance is being established in the EU and expects to begin work in 2027

In plain words

Legal notice and privacy.

A firm that works with other people’s data should be plain about its own. This page is short because this website collects no personal data.

Who is responsible for this website

Hemant Patil, founder of Provenance.

The website gives information about Provenance, an advisory firm for data and AI that is being established in the EU.

Contact: office@provenancelda.eu

The company

PROVENANCE, UNIPESSOAL LDA is being formed in Lisbon. Once it is registered, its registered office, its registry entry and its tax number will be shown here, and the company will take over responsibility for this website.

What this website does with your data

This website collects no personal data. It sets no cookies, uses no analytics or tracking, and has no forms. Its fonts and files are served from its own address, so your browser is not sent to any other company.

Like every website, it is delivered by a hosting company. That company’s servers briefly record technical details of each request, including the IP address, to deliver the pages and keep the service secure. Provenance does not use these records. The hosting company keeps them under its own rules, and may process them outside the European Union under the safeguards that EU law requires.

If you write to Provenance

Your message and your email address are used to reply to you and, if you ask, to tell you when the firm opens. They are not sold, shared or added to a mailing list.

Messages are kept for up to twelve months after the last exchange and are then deleted, unless a working relationship has begun. The legal ground is the legitimate interest in answering people who write (Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR). Email is handled by a provider that acts only on instructions.

Your rights

You may ask to see what is held about you, to have it corrected, deleted or restricted, or to object to its use. Write to office@provenancelda.eu and you will have an answer within one month.

You may also complain to the data protection authority where you live.

What this website is not

Nothing here is legal advice. Provenance is an advisory firm, not a law firm.

Nothing here is an offer to provide services. Provenance has not opened and takes on no engagements yet. The services and fees described are plans, and may change before it does.
