1.1. "Applicable Data Protection Laws" means the GDPR and its implementation in the national law of, as applicable, the United Kingdom (Data Protection Act 2018) or the Czech Republic (Act No. 110/2019 Coll., on personal data processing), as well as the laws implementing or supplementing the GDPR in each EU Member State, as amended, replaced or superseded from time to time, and which are applicable to the Company as regards the privacy, protection, processing, collection, use or disclosure of Personal Data of Authorized Personnel.

The Company's legal bases for processing the Personal Data collected as described in this Notice will depend on the type of Personal Data and the circumstances under which it is collected. We will collect and process Personal Data based on the following legal bases:

  • processing is based on Authorized Personnel's Consent when subscribing to receive our newsletter or other informational emails regarding our products and services.

If there is another legal basis for the Company to collect and process Personal Data, we will provide the required notification to Authorized Personnel at or before the time the Personal Data is collected.

We will disclose or transfer Personal Data to third parties to the extent necessary or required in order to provide the Services, or for business or legal reasons. Personal Data may be processed in and transferred to jurisdictions other than Authorized Personnel's country of residence which may have different data protection and privacy laws. In this respect, the Company may disclose or transfer Personal Data as follows:

"The Company uses cookies for various purposes, including without limitation tracking movements within the Partner Dashboard, analyzing trends, gathering statistical data and improving user experience and the overall quality of the Services. Cookies can be disabled or controlled by setting a preference within the Authorized Personnel's web browser or on their device. However, if cookies are disabled some features of the Services may not function properly or the Company may not be able to customize the delivery of information to Authorized Personnel. For detailed guidance on how to control, manage and delete cookies, please visit https://www.aboutcookies.org/. The Company uses first-party cookies and third-party cookies:

  • First-party cookies: We use session cookies and persistent cookies when Authorized Personnel navigate in the Partner Dashboard and use the Services. These types of cookies are essential to the operation of the Partner Dashboard and the provision of Services. The session cookie is stored in temporary memory and is not retained after the browser is closed. Session cookies do not collect information from the individual's computer. They store information in the form of a session identification that does not personally identify the individual. The persistent cookies are set with expiration date and are stored on the individual's hard drive until they expire or are deleted. We do not collect any Personal Data in the session and persistent cookies. We use session and persistent cookies for technical purposes, including but not limited to verifying the origin of requests, distributing requests among multiple servers, authenticating Authorized Personnel and determining what functionality of the Services or areas within the Partner Dashboard such Authorized Personnel are allowed to access.

  • Third-party cookies: We use third-party cookies of Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager. We have integrated Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager, analytics tools provided by Google Inc., in the Partner Dashboard in order to collect and analyze data about users' activity. Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager use cookies that collect information allowing the Company to understand how users interact with the Partner Dashboard. Such information contains online identifiers, including cookie identifiers, IP addresses and device identifiers, which may be considered Personal Data under the Applicable Data Protection Laws. We have enabled the IP address anonymization feature that prevents the storage of full IP address information in Google Analytics cookies. Google Inc. uses the collected information to provide online reports and other related services that help the Company to enhance user experience and evaluate the use of the Partner Dashboard. The collected information may be transferred to and stored in the U.S.A. by Google Inc. or any third-party service providers acting on its behalf. If Authorized Personnel object to the collection and processing of such data by Google Inc., they must install a browser add-on (available at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout) which will prevent further collection and transmission of information via Google Analytics cookies. Additional details about Google Analytics cookie usage can be found here.

The Company will retain Personal Data for no longer than what is necessary for the purposes for which such Personal Data is collected and processed. The retention period depends on the requirements of the applicable laws or regulations the Company must comply with, the purposes of the collection and processing of Personal Data, and the legitimate interests of the Company to establish, exercise or defend our legal rights in connection with the Partner Terms of Use.

We will delete Personal Data of Authorized Personnel from our production servers when:

  • Authorized Personnel request deletion of their Personal Data;

  • Partner deletes its Partner Account or such account is terminated by the Company in accordance with Partner Terms of Use; or

  • the Company terminates access to the Partner Dashboard and Partners API, and the provision of Services under the Partner Terms of Use.

As a result of the deletion, Personal Data of Authorized Personnel will be deleted and excised permanently from our production servers, subject to our right to retain Personal Data or portions thereof: (a) in backup files on its backup servers for a period of up to one (1) month from the date of deletion from the production servers in accordance with general internal retention procedures; and (b) in log files in order to comply with the requirements of the applicable laws or regulations, to exercise or defend (ongoing) legal claims, and to meet audit or statutory requirements.

It is Partner's responsibility to ensure that the information relating to Authorized Personnel acting under the Partner Account is accurate and up-to-date. Should any Authorized Personnel leave Partner's organization, Partner should remove such Authorized Personnel from the Partner Account without undue delay and provide the required information for the relevant replacement.

Taking into account the nature of the processing and the type of Personal Data processed, Authorized Personnel have the right to exercise the following rights as set forth in the GDPR:

  • the right to be informed

  • the right of access

  • the right to rectification

  • the right to erasure (right to be forgotten)

  • the right to restrict processing

  • the right to data portability

  • the right to object

  • rights in relation to automated decision-making and profiling

  • the right to lodge a complaint with the applicable Supervisory Authority

  • the right to withdraw Consent (provided that the Consent is the legal basis for processing)

Authorized Personnel may exercise any of the foregoing rights at any time by contacting the Company (see further Section 12 for contact details). We will endeavor to respond to any submitted requests in the manner and as set forth in the GDPR. Where the requests for exercising the rights under GDPR are manifestly unfounded or excessive, in particular because of their repetitive character, or further copies of the Personal Data undergoing processing are requested, the Company may charge a reasonable fee taking into account the administrative costs of providing the information or communication or taking the action requested.

We are committed to maintaining the confidentiality, integrity and security of the Personal Data under our custody or control. The Company employs advanced security techniques to safeguard Personal Data against unauthorized access, use and/or disclosure. We strictly restrict access to Personal Data in accordance with specific internal procedures governing access to such information. We carefully select the individuals privileged with access to Personal Data in accordance with internal security policies and practices, and each such individual is bound by confidentiality obligations. Access to our systems requires multiple levels of authentication, and industry-vetted encryption techniques are applied when processing Personal Data.

The Company reserves the right to change this Notice at any time and from time to time in order to reflect changes in the Services or the Applicable Data Protection Laws. If we decide to change this Notice in the future, we will post an appropriate notice at the top of this page. Any non-material changes (such as clarifications) to this Notice will become effective on the date the changes are posted and any material changes will become effective thirty (30) days from the date of their publication. The date this Notice was last revised appears at the top of this document. Authorized Personnel are advised to print a copy of this Notice for reference and revisit this Notice from time to time to ensure that they are aware of any changes. Authorized Personnel's continued use of the Services after the changes to this Notice become effective signifies their acceptance of any such changes.
