When you visit our websites, we also process your data with cookies and similar web analytics tools. For more information on how we use cookies and other web analytics tools see our Cookies policy available at https://metapublishing.io/cookie/.

‌2. HOW WE SHARE YOUR DATA

We share your data only in limited cases with the following recipients:

affiliates and other companies of our group to efficiently perform our business activities;
SaaS, hosting service providers for use of SaaS software and hosting the IT systems we employ to process your data;
our clients if we process your data to fulfil our obligations to them under our publishing contracts (for example, we can arrange the reward distribution),
new business owner if we ever sell our business;
governmental agencies, courts if required by any legal order;
professional advisors, such as lawyers, bankers, auditors, and insurers, where necessary in the course of the professional services they render to us.

Our Services may contain links to sites operated by third parties. We are not responsible for your data when you access these links or engage with third party services, and you should ensure you review the relevant third party's privacy statement which will govern your data privacy rights.

‌3. HOW WE TRANSFER DATA OUTSIDE OF THE EEA

We do our best to keep your data inside the EEA area. With that, some processes require use of foreign service providers to be efficient.

The countries to which we transfer your data do not always have the same data protection laws as your jurisdiction. We take reasonable measures to ensure your data is adequately protected when outside of the EEA, for example, we sign Standard Contractual Clauses (SCC) adopted by the European Commission with our providers and other recipients in third countries, assess the risks of international data transfers to adopt additional security measures, etc.

You may also obtain a copy of relevant SCCs by contacting us, as specified in Section 6 (Contacts).

‌4. WHAT ARE YOUR RIGHTS

Under the GDPR you have certain legal rights, which are briefly summarised below, in relation to any personal data about you which we hold:

Accessing Data

You have the right to ask us to provide information on how we process your data. You may also request copies of any personal data we hold concerning you.

Data Portability

You have the right to ask that we transfer the information you give us to another organisation, or to you, in certain circumstances.

Changing or updating data

You have the right to ask us to rectify information you think is inaccurate. You also have the right to ask us to complete any information you believe to be incomplete.

Deleting Data

You have the right to ask us to delete or remove your data in certain circumstances. For instance, if you withdraw consent and believe that there is no justified reason for us continuing processing it. In some cases, we may be required to continue storing data for regulatory purposes even though you require us to delete it. Should this be the case, we will provide you with further information.

Objecting, Restricting Processing

You have the right to request that we stop using all or some of your personal data, or that we limit (restrict) our use of your data. This includes objecting to use of personal data that is based on legitimate interests. If we process your personal data for direct marketing purposes, we will stop such processing without exception following the receipt of such a request from you. But, in other cases we may continue to process data following such an objection or request to the extent required or permitted by law.

Revoking Consent

You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time, after which we will stop any processing of your data for such purposes. Specifically, you can withdraw your consent to direct marketing by following the “unsubscribe” link or contacting us in accordance with Section 6 (Contacts) below.

Complaints

If you believe we have violated your rights you may lodge a complaint with the Office of the Commissioner for Personal Data Protection (Cyprus) via their website. Nevertheless, we kindly ask you to first contact us to see if we can resolve your issue amicably.

You can independently access, delete, correct, or change some of your personal data in your account settings.

If you would like to exercise the rights above, please contact us, as specified in Section 6 (Contacts). We will aim to respond to you within one month. In some cases, we may need to ask for additional information before we are able to disclose any data to you.

‌5. THE SAFETY AND SECURITY OF DATA

No IT system or online communication is completely safe, but we do our best to ensure the security of your personal data. We take technical, organisational, and legal measures, including, where suitable, the employment of encryption, to ensure that your personal data are protected from unauthorised or accidental access, deletion, modification, blocking, copying and dissemination.

We also have procedures in place to deal with any suspected data security breach. We will notify you and any applicable regulator of a suspected data security breach where we are legally required to do so.
