## How the Ombudsman works

The Ombudsman is a regulatory channel required of financial and payment institutions in Brazil. Its role is to act as the **last instance of the customer relationship**, after the ordinary service channels have been exhausted.

The ombudsman is independent from operations and reports directly to the board. Every request is logged, answered within **10 business days** and consolidated in a half-yearly report sent to the Central Bank of Brazil.

## Before contacting the Ombudsman

Your request is probably resolved faster through the support channel:

- **Customer support**, [suporte@cumbuca.com](mailto:suporte@cumbuca.com), for operational issues, usage questions and transaction incidents
- **Privacy / LGPD**, [privacidade@cumbuca.com](mailto:privacidade@cumbuca.com), to exercise rights over personal data
- **Security**, [security@cumbuca.com](mailto:security@cumbuca.com), to report vulnerabilities or suspected fraud

The Ombudsman should be contacted when the support channel's answer was unsatisfactory, or when the matter involves the institution's conduct.
