Information about 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 is this data collected, and how we maintain this data under protection from being replicated
or used in the wrong way.
What is GDPR?
GDPR is an 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.
The GDPR is relevant to any globally operating company and not just the EU-based businesses
and EU residents. Our customers’ data is important irrespective of where they are located,
which is why we have implemented GDPR controls as our baseline standard for all our
operations worldwide.
What is personal data?
Any data that relates to an identifiable or identified 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.
Why is GDPR important?
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. Beyond these facts it’s simply the
right thing to do. At Polish Scientists: The Game we strongly believe that your data privacy is
very important and we already have solid security and privacy practices in place that go beyond
the requirements of this new regulation.
Individual Data Subject’s Rights – Data Access, Portability and Deletion
We are committed to helping our customers meet the data subject rights requirements of GDPR.
Polish Scientists: The Game processes or stores all personal data in fully vetted, 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 60 days.
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 got you! We’ve 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.
