- Privacy Rights of EEA and UK Residents
Although Palmperfect is based in the United States, we may, from time to time, process “personal data” of people who reside in the European Union, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, or the United Kingdom, which processing may be subject to the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (also called the “GDPR”) or the United Kingdom General Data Protection Regulation (also called the “UK-GDPR”). “Personal data” is defined in the GDPR and the UK-GDPR as “any information related to an identified or identifiable natural person,” and, for purposes of this Privacy Policy, references to “personal data” in this section include the categories of information set forth in section 1 above, if applicable.
We will only process your personal data to the extent applicable law allows us to do so.
The United States has not sought nor received a finding of “adequacy” from the European Union or the United Kingdom under article 45 of the GDPR or article 45 of the UK-GDPR. Therefore, we rely on derogations for specific situations as set forth in article 49 of the GDPR and article 49 of the UK-GDPR. In particular, we collect and transfer to the U.S. personal data only: with your consent; to perform a contract with you; or to fulfill a compelling legitimate interest in a manner that does not outweigh your rights and freedoms.
If you are a resident of the EU, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, or the United Kingdom, you have certain rights under applicable law, including the right to:
- Request that we provide you access to the personal data that we maintain about you;
- Request to correct, revise, or update any of the personal data we maintain about you;
- Request that we erase the personal data we maintain about you;
- Object to our processing of your personal data on the basis that the processing has a disproportionately detrimental impact on your interests, rights, and freedoms;
- Request that we restrict our processing activities related to your personal data;
- Withdraw your consent to our processing of your data at any time, however, such a withdrawal will not affect the lawfulness of our processing based on your consent prior to the withdrawal. Please note that where we rely on your consent in order to process your personal data and you then withdraw that consent, it may affect our provision of services to you, and may mean that we are unable to provide our services (either in part or in full) to you;
- Request to have your personal data reproduced in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format, whether or not such request relates to the transmission of the personal data to another party; and
- Require us to stop sending you marketing communications.
Residents of the EU, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway or the United Kingdom may initiate any of the above requests, objections, or requirements by sending us an email at info@beaconwb.com and writing “GDPR Request” in the subject line. You may also write to us at the postal address provided in section 12 above.
Finally, you have the right to raise a concern about our collection and processing of your personal data with your local supervisory authority, available here (EU/EAA) or here (UK) and you may do so without prejudice to any other rights you may have.
