How we obtain personal data

Personal information refers to any information that can be used to distinguish one individual from another, while personal data is defined in the GDPR as any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (‘data subject’). We collect and receive personal data through our website and Clipsmash. First of all, we collect personal data that You choose to voluntarily provide to us for Your use of the website and Clipsmash. Also, we collect personal information through Clipsmash. In addition, we collect certain personal data by using cookies, including similar technologies such as local storage when You visit the website. Cookies are bits of text that are placed on Your computer’s hard drive or mobile device when You visit certain websites and whose purpose is to carry bits of useful information about Your interaction with the website that sets them.

Cookies hold information that may be accessible by the party that places the cookie, which is either the website itself (first party cookie) or a third party (third party cookies) such as Google, but in the latter case we use the analytics anonymization function. You have control over cookies and can refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate setting on Your browser. Most browsers will tell You how to stop accepting new cookies, how to be notified when You receive a new cookie, and how to disable or delete existing cookies.

We process personal data because this is necessary for the performance of the contract between You and us, for our compliance with our legal obligations, and for the purpose of our legitimate interests. In particular, our legitimate interests are our commercial company interest (e.g. to improve our products and services), our interest to prevent fraud, our interest to report possible criminal acts or threats to competent authorities, and our interest to make use of direct marketing, a common purpose of processing that includes a number of different activities—e.g., collecting personal data from potential customers, creating profiles about those potential customers and their preferences, and then sending personalized communications to them. Some of the personal data that we process is required for us to meet our legal obligations.

We reserve the right to transfer personal data about You in the event that we sell or transfer all or a portion of our business or assets, in accordance with applicable law. Should such a sale or transfer occur, we will use reasonable efforts to direct the transferee to use data You have provided to us in a manner that is consistent with this Privacy Statement. Following such a sale or transfer, You may contact the entity to which we transferred Your data with any inquiries concerning the processing of that data.

Data transfers outside the EEA

How we protect personal data

We maintain appropriate technical and organizational security safeguards designed to protect Your personal data against accidental, unlawful or unauthorized destruction, loss, alteration, access, disclosure or use.
