Certain data protection laws and
regulations, such as the GDPR, typically distinguish between two main roles for
parties processing Personal Data: the “Data Controller”, who determines the
purposes and means of processing; and the “Data Processor”, who processes the
data on behalf of the Data Controller. Below we explain how these roles apply
to our Services, to the extent that such laws and regulations apply.
Tonkean is the “Data Controller” of its
Visitors, Customers and prospective Users’ Personal Data, and with respect to
which, assumes the responsibilities of Data Controller (solely to the extent
applicable under law), as set forth in this Privacy Policy. Tonkean furthermore
acts as Data Controller with regard to Account Data as submitted within the
creation of a User’s profile or User account.
A User’s submitted content, Integration
Data and further information submitted by them shall be processed by Tonkean on
behalf of their organization (our Customer) and may be shared with individuals
within their organization (such as admins) in accordance with this Privacy
Policy. Such Customer shall be deemed the “Data Controller” of its Users’ Personal
Data and Integration Data, and Tonkean will process such data on this
Customer’s behalf, as its “Data Processor”. As “Data Processor”, Tonkean processes
such Users’ Personal Data and Integration Data on behalf of our Customer and in
accordance with their reasonable instructions, subject to our Terms of Service
and other commercial agreements. The Customer will be responsible for meeting
any legal requirements applicable to Data Controllers (such as establishing a
legal basis for processing and responding to Data Subject Rights requests
concerning the data they control).
If you would like to make any requests or
queries regarding Personal Data (see Section 8) we process on your
organization’s (our Customer’s) behalf, please contact your organizational
administrator directly.
Updates and Amendments: We may update and amend this Privacy
Policy from time to time by posting an amended version on our Services. The
amended version will be effective as of the date it is so published. We will
provide a 10-day prior notice if we believe any substantial changes are
involved via any of the communication means available to us or via the
Services. After such notice period, all amendments shall be deemed accepted by
you.
