NOTICE TO SUBSCRIBER’S CLIENTS, ETC: If a Subscriber uses the Service to interact with or collect personal data from, other individuals, such as the Subscriber’s customers, employees, or agents (the “Data Subjects”), the Subscriber is solely responsible for ensuring compliance with all applicable laws in connection with the collection and/or processing of personal data of the Data Subjects. If you are a Data Subject please note that the Company has no relationship with you whatsoever and its only relation is with the Subscriber with whom you may interact. For any questions regarding the collection of your personal data or to amend your personal data, and for all other reasons, you must contact the Subscriber.

NOTICE TO SUBSCRIBERS: Please note that the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) applies to the Subscriber if the Subscriber collects personal data of the Data Subjects and any of the following two criteria are met: (i) the processing of personal data is done in the context of the activities of an establishment of a controller or a processor in the EU, regardless of whether the processing takes place in the EU or not; or (ii) the processing of personal data of data subjects who are in the EU by a controller or processor not established in the EU, where the processing activities are related to: (a) the offering of goods or services, irrespective of whether a payment of the data subject is required, to such data subjects in the EU; or (b) the monitoring of their behavior as far as their behavior takes place within the EU.

Because the Company does not collect or determine the use of any personal data of Data Subjects, nor the purpose for which such data is collected by the Subscriber, how such data is collected and how it is used, the Company does not act as a data controller as defined under GDPR and bears no responsibility under the GDPR associated with a data controller.

To the extent that the Company processes any Data Subject’s data, it should be considered only as a processor on behalf of the Subscriber as to any personal data that is subject to the requirements of GDPR.

While you may employ your own privacy policy, you agree and acknowledge that for as long as you use the Service and are subject to the GDPR, you must comply with the GDPR requirements.

Your obligations (which extend to your employees, agents, subcontractors, etc., collectively your “Personnel”) include, but are not limited to (i) promptly (and under no circumstances after seventy two hours) notifying the Company of becoming aware of any breach of security leading to the accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure of or access to, personal data transmitted, stored or otherwise processed or any investigation by a governmental authority concerning your handling of personal data; (ii) promptly and in good faith responding to any inquiries or requests by the Company regarding the collection and/or processing of personal data by you; (iii) maintaining relevant records of collecting and/or processing of personal data subject to GDPR; (iv) transferring or processing the personal data outside the EU or European Economic Area in compliance with GDPR and with prior written notification of the Company; and (v) ensuring that your Personnel is aware of and complies with the foregoing obligations.
