Cultural Tip
In Brazil and Portugal, privacy (privacidade) is a hot topic, especially online. When speaking about data protection, a slightly formal register is preferred, so using verbs like 'garantir' or 'assegurar' can sound more professional. Avoid adding an article before 'privacidade' unless you refer to a specific kind of privacy (e.g., 'a privacidade dos clientes').
