All content published on platforms operated by Atlas Dados Portais de Conteúdo na Internet Ltda. — including but not limited to articles, reports, data analyses, infographics, photographs, videos, illustrations, logos, trade names, layout and design elements, software, source code, databases, and editorial compilations — is the exclusive intellectual property of Atlas Dados or its duly licensed content partners and suppliers, and is protected under Brazilian Federal Law No. 9,610/1998 (Lei de Direitos Autorais), as well as applicable international intellectual property conventions to which Brazil is a signatory.

Section 09

Governing Law & Jurisdiction

These Terms of Use, and any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or in connection with them — including any question regarding their existence, validity, interpretation, breach, or termination — shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Federative Republic of Brazil, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

The parties irrevocably agree that the courts of the Comarca de São Paulo, State of São Paulo, Brazil shall have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute or claim arising from or in connection with these Terms or their subject matter or formation, and each party waives any objection to proceedings in such courts on the grounds of inconvenient forum or otherwise.

Specifically, these Terms are subject to, among others:

• Lei No. 12,965/2014 (Marco Civil da Internet) — Brazil's legal framework governing internet use, rights, and responsibilities.
• Lei No. 13,709/2018 (Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados — LGPD) — Brazil's General Data Protection Law, as it applies to the processing of personal data.
• Lei No. 9,610/1998 (Lei de Direitos Autorais) — Brazil's Copyright Law, governing intellectual property protections.
• Lei No. 8,078/1990 (Código de Defesa do Consumidor) — Brazil's Consumer Protection Code, where applicable to end-user relationships.

If any provision of these Terms is found by a competent court to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable under applicable law, that provision shall be deemed severed from these Terms and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions.
