Information about General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
We may be collecting and using information from you if you are from the
European Economic Area (EEA), and in this section of our Privacy Policy we are
going to explain exactly how and why is this data collected, and how we
maintain this data under protection from being replicated or used in the wrong
way.
What is GDPR?
GDPR is an EU-wide privacy and data protection law that regulates how EU
residents' data is protected by companies and enhances the control the EU
residents have, over their personal data.
The GDPR is relevant to any globally operating company and not just the
EU-based businesses and EU residents. Our customers’ data is important
irrespective of where they are located, which is why we have implemented GDPR
controls as our baseline standard for all our operations worldwide.
What is personal data?
Any data that relates to an identifiable or identified individual. GDPR covers
a broad spectrum of information that could be used on its own, or in
combination with other pieces of information, to identify a person. Personal
data extends beyond a person’s name or email address. Some examples include
financial information, political opinions, genetic data, biometric data, IP
addresses, physical address, sexual orientation, and ethnicity.
The Data Protection Principles include requirements such as:
-Personal data collected must be
processed in a fair, legal, and transparent way and should only be used in a
way that a person would reasonably expect.
-Personal data should only be collected
to fulfil a specific purpose and it should only be used for that purpose.
Organizations must specify why they need the personal data when they collect
it.
-Personal data should be held no longer
than necessary to fulfil its purpose.
-People covered by the GDPR have the
right to access their own personal data. They can also request a copy of their
data, and that their data be updated, deleted, restricted, or moved to another
organization.
Why is GDPR important?
GDPR adds some new requirements regarding how companies should protect
individuals' personal data that they collect and process. It also raises the
stakes for compliance by increasing enforcement and imposing greater fines for
breach. Beyond these facts it's simply the right thing to do. At Know Thy Enemy
(Colin Beeforth & Sidney Gilroy - Authors) we strongly believe that your
data privacy is very important and we already have solid security and privacy
practices in place that go beyond the requirements of this new
regulation.
Individual Data Subject's Rights - Data Access, Portability and Deletion
We are committed to helping our customers meet the data subject rights
requirements of GDPR. Know Thy Enemy (Colin Beeforth & Sidney Gilroy -
Authors) processes or stores all personal data in fully vetted, DPA compliant
vendors. We do store all conversation and personal data for up to 6 years
unless your account is deleted. In which case, we dispose of all data in
accordance with our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, but we will not hold
it longer than 60 days.
We are aware that if you are working with EU customers, you need to be able to
provide them with the ability to access, update, retrieve and remove personal
data. We got you! We've been set up as self service from the start and have
always given you access to your data and your customers data. Our
customer support team is here for you to answer any questions you might
have about working with the API.
California Residents
The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) requires us to disclose categories
of Personal Information we collect and how we use it, the categories of sources
from whom we collect Personal Information, and the third parties with whom we
share it, which we have explained above.
We are also required to communicate information about rights California
residents have under California law. You may exercise the following
rights:
-Right to Know and Access. You may
submit a verifiable request for information regarding the: (1) categories of
Personal Information we collect, use, or share; (2) purposes for which
categories of Personal Information are collected or used by us; (3) categories
of sources from which we collect Personal Information; and (4) specific pieces
of Personal Information we have collected about you.
-Right to Equal Service. We will not
discriminate against you if you exercise your privacy rights.
-Right to Delete. You may submit a
verifiable request to close your account and we will delete Personal Information
about you that we have collected.
-Request that a business that sells a
consumer's personal data, not sell the consumer's personal data.
If you make a request, we have one month to respond to you. If you would like
to exercise any of these rights, please contact us.
We do not sell the Personal Information of our users.
For more information about these rights, please contact us.
