Customers are solely responsible for establishing policies for and ensuring compliance with all applicable laws and regulations, as well as any and all privacy policies, agreements or other obligations, relating to the collection of Personal Data from End-Users. If you are an End-User, then you will be directed to contact our Customer for assistance with any requests or questions relating to your Personal Data. We collect information under the direction of our Customers and have no direct relationship with End-Users whose Personal Data we process in connection with our Customer’s use of our Services. If you are an End-User and would either like to amend your contact information or no longer wish to be contacted by one of our Customers that use our Services, please contact the Customer that you interact with directly. If your Personal Data is processed within Customer Data, we will process the Personal Data for as long as we are instructed to do so by the Customer that is the data controller of the Personal Data.

6. Data Security: How We Protect Data We Hold

We have implemented reasonable and appropriate technical and organizational measures designed to secure your Personal Data. We follow certain generally accepted standards designed to help protect the Personal Data submitted to us, both during the transmission and once we receive it. The measures we use are designed to provide a level of security appropriate to the risk of processing your Personal Data. All information you provide to us is stored on our secure servers behind firewalls. Any payment transactions will be encrypted using SSL or TLS technology.

Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although we try to do our best to protect your Personal Data, we cannot guarantee the security of your Personal Data transmitted to the Services. Any transmission of Personal Data is at your own risk. We are not responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures contained on the Services.

7. International Transfer of Personal Data

We are based in the United States of America, and we have service providers in the United States and potentially other countries. We store Personal Data about Visitors within the United States, the EEA, and in other countries and territories in which we, or our contractors, operate. To provide you with the Services, we may transfer and access such Personal Data from around the world. If you are using the Services from the European Economic Area (“EEA”) or other foreign regions, please note that you are agreeing to the transfer of your Personal Data to the United States and other jurisdictions in which we and our applicable affiliates and third-party service providers operate. Such countries may have laws which are different, and potentially not as protective, as the laws of your own country. Whenever we share Personal Data originating in the EEA, United Kingdom (“UK”), or Switzerland, we will rely on lawful measures to transfer that data. By providing your Personal Data, where applicable law permits, you hereby specifically and expressly consent to the transfer and processing of your Personal Data in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

 

8. Legal Basis for Processing Personal Data (EEA, UK, and Switzerland Only)

With respect to Personal Data collected from individuals from the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, our legal basis for collecting and using the Personal Data will depend on the Personal Data concerned and the specific context in which we collect it. We will normally collect Personal Data only where: (i) we have specific consent to do so, (ii) where we need the Personal Data to fulfill our obligations to a Visitor, or (iii) where the processing is in our or a third party’s legitimate interests (and not overridden by your data protection interests or fundamental rights and freedoms).

 

 

9. Retention of Personal Data

We will retain your Personal Data for the periods indicated below.

– For so long as needed to provide you with the Services or to fulfill our obligations to you.

– As necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our contractual and other legal rights.

10. EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework

We adhere to the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework, the Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework, and the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (collectively, the “DPF Program”) concerning the transfer of Personal Data from the EEA, UK, and Switzerland to the United States. Accordingly, we follow the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework Principles published by the U.S. Department of Commerce (“DPF Principles”) with respect to all such data. We comply with the DPF Principles for all onward transfers of Personal Data from the EEA, UK, and Switzerland, including the onward transfer liability provisions. We specify in contracts with service providers that handle Personal Data collected by us that such Personal Data may only be processed for limited and specified purposes consistent with the purposes laid out in this Privacy Policy. Those third parties agree to provide the same level of protection as the DPF Principles. In certain situations, if a third party that receives Personal Data from us takes an action that is contrary to the DPF Principles, we will be liable for those actions unless we can prove that we are not responsible for causing such liability. If we received your information pursuant to the DPF Program, you have the right to access your Personal Data and opt-out of (i) disclosures of your Personal Data to third parties not identified at the time of collection or subsequently authorized and (ii) uses of your Personal Data for purposes materially different from those disclosed at the time of collection or subsequently authorized. If there is any conflict between the terms in this Privacy Policy and the DPF Principles, the DPF Principles shall govern. Compliance with the DPF Principles may be limited, however, in certain cases, to the extent necessary, to meet national security, public interest, or law enforcement requirements. To learn more about the DPF Program, and to view our certifications, please visit https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/. A violation of our commitment to the DPF Program may be investigated by the Federal Trade Commission. With respect to Personal Data received or transferred pursuant to the DPF Program, we are subject to the regulatory enforcement powers of the U.S. Federal Trade Commission.

In compliance with the DPF Principles, we commit to resolve complaints about your privacy and our collection or use of your Personal Data. Individuals with inquiries or complaints regarding this Privacy Policy should first contact us via our data protection officer by email at: Privacy@TeamSupport.com, or by mail at: TeamSupport LLC or SnapEngage LLC, ATTN: Data Privacy, 5005 Lyndon B Johnson Freeway, Ste 850, Dallas, TX 75243.

We further committed to refer unresolved privacy complaints under the DPF Principles to an independent dispute resolution mechanism, Data Privacy Framework Services, operated by BBB National Programs. If you do not receive timely acknowledgment of your complaint, or if your complaint is not satisfactorily addressed, please visit https://bbbprograms.org/programs/all-programs/dpf-consumers/ProcessForConsumers for more information and to file a complaint. This service is provided free of charge to you.

If your DPF complaint cannot be resolved through the above channels, under certain conditions, you may invoke binding arbitration for some residual claims not resolved by other redress mechanisms.  See https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/s/article/G-Arbitration-Procedures-dpf?tabset-35584=2.
