We might also have executed data processing agreement with them to regulate how such service providers use your personal data. This data processing agreement was implemented thanks to the GDPR, CCPA, and the Australian Privacy Principals. In the event where such service providers are limiting their data processing agreements to European, UK, Australian, or Californian users, we are negotiating to extend such protection to all our users wherever located.

​

Until then, please note that as provided under article 49 of the GDPR, we have the obligation to inform you of the possible risks of the transfer of your personal data to the USA due to the absence of an adequacy decision or other appropriate safeguards since such invalidation. By using the Privet App, you guarantee having been informed of such risks and understanding them.

If third parties that process personal data for us do so in a manner that does not comply with the Privacy Shield Principles, we are responsible for such failure, unless we prove that we are not responsible for the event giving rise to the damage.

 

In compliance with the Privacy Shield Principles, Privet commits to resolve complaints about our collection or use of your personal information. EU, British and Swiss individuals with inquiries or complaints regarding our Privacy Shield policy should contact Mary J. Hildebrand, CIPP/US, CIPP/E by email at MHildebrand@lowenstein.com.
