These service providers may need to access Personal Data to perform their services. We authorize such service providers to use or disclose the Personal Data only to perform services on our behalf and will always comply with legal requirements. We require such service providers to contractually commit to protecting the security and confidentiality of Personal Data they process on our behalf.

Some of the service providers mentioned above may be located abroad and, in this case, we adopt additional safeguards to guarantee an adequate level of protection for your personal data.

 

7. Where We Store Your Personal Data

We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy and no transfer of your Personal Data will take place to an organization or a country unless there are adequate controls in place including the security of your data and other personal information.

In accordance with the GDPR, when we transfer your personal data out of the EEA, we ensure a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring that we use specific controls approved by the European Commission which give personal data the same protection it has in Europe.

We make commercially reasonable efforts to ensure the security of our systems. However, please note that this is not a guarantee that such information may not be accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed by breach of any of our physical technical or managerial safeguards. If we learn of a security systems breach, then we may attempt to notify you electronically so that you can take appropriate protective steps. We may post a notice on our Site or through other forms of communication.

  

10. Your Rights Under the GDPR (If You Are a Data Subject in the EU)

Under the law, you are granted six fundamental rights when data about you is being processed. We will ensure to reach out without undue delay (no more than 30 days) when you submit a request related to exercising your data subject rights. Although uncommon, when applicable for official or legal reasons we may be unable to address the specific request you make related to your rights.

Also, if a request is manifestly unfounded or excessive, in particular, because of their repetitive character, we may either:

  • charge a reasonable fee considering the administrative costs of providing the information or communication or taking the action requested; or

  • refuse to act on the request.

In this scenario we will inform you of the reasons we believe your request is manifestly unfounded or excessive character of the request.

As a data subject, you have the right to:

a) The right to request confirmation of whether we processes Personal Data relating to you, and if so, to request a copy of that Personal Data;

b) The right to request that we rectify or updates your Personal Data that is inaccurate, incomplete, or outdated;

c) The right to request that we erase your Personal Data in certain circumstances provided by law;

d) The right to request that we restrict the use of your Personal Data in certain circumstances, such as while we consider another request that you have submitted (including a request that we make an update to your Personal Data);

e) The right to request that we export your Personal Data that we hold to another company, where technically feasible;

Where the processing of your Personal Data is based on your previously given consent, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time; and/or:

  • In some cases, you may also have the right to object to the processing of your Personal Data.

  • To exercise your data protection rights please contact our DPO at dpo@tappa.com.  

We will comply with your request to the extent required by applicable law. We will not be able to respond to a request if we no longer hold your Personal Data. If you feel that you have not received a satisfactory response from us, you may have the right under applicable laws to consult with the data protection authority in your country.

11. California Privacy Rights

This section applies only to California consumers. The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) is a data protection law that ensures you have certain rights regarding the Personal Information we collect or maintain about you. Please note these rights are not absolute, and there may be cases when we decline your request as permitted by law.

  • Right of Access: you have the right to request that we disclose what Personal Information we have collected, used, and disclosed about you in the past 12 months. 

  • Right of Deletion: you have the right to request that we delete Personal Information collected or maintained by us, subject to certain exceptions.

  • Right to Non-Discrimination: You have the right to not be discriminated against by us because you exercised any of your rights under the CCPA.

You also have the right to opt out of the sale of personal information. In the preceding 12 months, we have not disclosed your personal information to any third party in a manner that would be considered a sale under the CCPA.

For more details on the personal information collected in the preceding 12 months, see our sections above How We Collect Your Information and Which Information We Collect About You. We collect this information for business and commercial purposes as described above in How We Use Your Data section.
