Individual Rights in Personal Information
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 this data is collected, and how we maintain this data under protection from being replicated or used in the wrong way.
GDPR is a European Union (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.
Personal Data: It is any data that relates to an 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.
Importance of GDPR: 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. We are committed to helping our customers meet the data subject rights requirements of GDPR.
ADM Creative Media processes or stores all personal data in fully vetted, Data Processing Agreement (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 three months.
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 are here for you, and we have 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.
