Transfer of Information to Other Countries
We are based in Panama. However, we may transfer personal information to outside agents or service providers (including our affiliates acting in this capacity) that perform services on our behalf, such as customer service and support, marketing and analytics, data hosting or processing services, or similar services. Some of these service providers may be located outside of Panama, including the United States, and as a result your personal information may be processed in the United States or elsewhere outside of Panama, where local laws may permit foreign government and national security authorities to access personal information in certain circumstances.
Residents of The European Economic Area
If you are a resident of the European Economic Area (“EEA”), you have certain rights and protections under the law regarding the processing of your personal data. Any reference to “personal information” in this Privacy Policy should be understood as referring to “personal data”, defined under the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) as “any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (‘data subject’); an identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person”.
Legal Basis for Processing
If you are a resident of the EEA, when we process your personal data we will only do so where we need to use your personal data to perform our responsibilities under our agreement with you (e.g., providing the Services you have requested). We have a legitimate interest in processing your personal data. For example, we may process your personal data to send you marketing communications, to communicate with you about changes to the Services, and to provide, secure, and improve the Services. You have consented to the processing of your personal data for one or more specific purposes. We consider that our legitimate interests are in compliance with the GDPR and your legal rights and freedoms. You have the right to object to any of this processing and, if you wish, please contact us at the contact details indicated below.
Data Subject Requests
If you are a resident of the EEA, you have the right to access personal data we hold about you and to ask that your personal data be corrected, erased, or transferred. You may also have the right to object to, or request that we restrict, certain processing. If you would like to exercise any of these rights, you can contact us as indicated below. Please note that the limitation or deletion of your personal data may mean we will be unable to provide our Services to you. You also have the right to receive your personal data in a machine-readable format and have the data transferred to another party responsible for data processing.
Questions or Complaints
If you are a resident of the EEA and have a concern about our processing of personal data that we are not able to resolve, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the data privacy authority where you reside. For contact details of your local Data Protection Authority, please see: http://ec.europa.eu/justice/data-protection/article-29/structure/data-protection-authorities/index_en.htm.
