Information about General Data ProtectionRegulation (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 bycompanies and enhances the control the EU residents have, over their personal data.page 9/11The GDPR is relevant to any globally operating company and not just the EU-based businesses and EUresidents. Our customers’ data is important irrespective of where they are located, which is why we haveimplemented 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 informationthat 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 financialinformation, political opinions, genetic data, biometric data, IP addresses, physical address, sexualorientation, 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 beused 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 thatpurpose. 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 acopy 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 thatthey collect and process. It also raises the stakes for compliance by increasing enforcement and imposinggreater fines for breach. Beyond these facts it's simply the right thing to do. At Clout King we strongly believethat your data privacy is very important and we already have solid security and privacy practices in place thatgo 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. Clout Kingprocesses or stores all personal data in fully vetted, DPA compliant vendors. We do store all conversationand personal data for up to 6 years unless your account is deleted. In which case, we dispose of all data inaccordance 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 abilityto access, update, retrieve and remove personal data. We got you! We've been set up as self service fromthe start and have always given you access to your data and your customers data. Our customer supportteam is here for you to answer any questions you might have about working with the API.
