6. Data Protection Principles
We adhere to the principles set out in the GDPR, which require that personal data be:
- Processed lawfully, fairly, and in a transparent manner
- Collected for specified, explicit, and legitimate purposes
- Adequate, relevant, and limited to what is necessary
- Accurate and, where necessary, kept up to date
- Kept in a form which permits identification of data subjects for no longer than is necessary
- Processed in a manner that ensures appropriate security of the personal data
7. Lawful Basis for Processing
We process personal data on the following lawful bases:
- Consent: We process some personal data based on the consent you provide when you sign up for our service or agree to our terms.
- Contract: We process personal data to fulfill our contractual obligations to you as a user of our service.
- Legitimate Interests: We process personal data for our legitimate interests, such as to improve our service, prevent fraud, and for direct marketing purposes.
- Legal Obligation: We process personal data to comply with legal obligations, such as tax laws.
8. International Transfers
We may transfer your personal data to countries outside the European Economic Area (EEA). Whenever we transfer your personal data out of the EEA, we ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is implemented:
- We will only transfer your personal data to countries that have been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data by the European Commission.
- Where we use certain service providers, we may use specific contracts approved by the European Commission which give personal data the same protection it has in Europe.
- Where we use providers based in the US, we may transfer data to them if they are part of the Privacy Shield which requires them to provide similar protection to personal data shared between Europe and the US.
9. Data Security
We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used, or accessed in an unauthorized way, altered, or disclosed. In addition, we limit access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors, and other third parties who have a business need to know.
We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach where we are legally required to do so.
10. Data Retention
We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.
To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.
