Who we share your personal information with?
We may share your personal information with certain trusted third parties in accordance with contractual arrangements in place with them, for example third parties engaged to provide certain support or IT services, among others:
- We are using cloud service providers (Microsoft Azure) which are accessible through the Internet for hosting our website and application, and to support several business processes. In this context, personal data may be processed and stored on the service provider’s servers, as far as we process data as described in this policy.
- We use the services Google (Universal) Analytics, Google Analytics Remarketing, Google Ads, and the Google Tag Manager. These are services provided by Google LLC (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, “Google”). Google is based in the third country USA, which basically lacks an EU level of protection. Therefore, Standard Contractual Clauses as appropriate safeguards according to Art. 46 GDPR are completed with Google. You can find more information in the Privacy Policy of Google.
- We use Crisp Chat, a service of Crisp IM, 2 boulevard de Launay in Nantes (44100), for real-time chat and mail based support on our website. Crisp is operating in the EU and has implemented the GDPR regulations. You can find more information in the Privacy Statement of Crisp.
We may also share your personal information with certain public authorities in order to investigate, prevent or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, violations of our terms of use or as otherwise required by law (e.g. to comply with subpoenas).
Which countries we transfer your personal information to?
In order to provide our services to you we may need to transfer your personal information to locations outside the jurisdiction in which you provide it or where you are viewing the website/apps. This may be a transfer of your information from a location within the European Economic Area (EEA) to outside the EEA, or from outside the EEA to a location within.
Your Rights
We would like to make sure you are fully aware of all of your data protection rights. Every user, independent of location or jurisdiction, is entitled to the following:
- The right to access You have the right to obtain confirmation as to whether or not we process personal data relating to you, and, where that is the case, access to the personal data and information about their processing. You have the right to request copies of your personal data, provided that this does not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others.
- The right to rectification You have the right to request that we correct any information you believe is inaccurate. You also have the right to request to complete information you believe is incomplete.
- The right to data portability If the processing of your personal data is based on your consent or on the performance of a contract that you have with us, you have the right to request that we transfer the data concerned to another organization, where technically possible, or directly to you.
- The right to erasure You have the right to request that we erase your personal data, except in certain cases, notably if we need your personal data for compliance with a legal obligation or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
- The right to restrict processing You have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your personal data in certain situations, notably where you contest the accuracy of your personal data, for a period enabling us to verify the accuracy of your personal data, or, where you have objected to the processing pending verfication whether our legitimate grounds override those of you.
- The right to object to processing Where the processing of your personal data is based on the pursuance of a legitimate interest, you have the right to object to us processing of your personal data. In this case, we will no longer process your personal data unless we demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds overriding those of you or if we need your personal data for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims. Your right to object is unconditional with regard to the processing of your personal data for direct marketing purposes.
