This DPA supplements our Terms of Service and governs how we process personal data on your behalf in accordance with applicable data protection laws, including the GDPR and CCPA.

By using our services and sharing personal data with us, you agree to the terms outlined in this DPA.

Scope and Applicability

We will notify you in advance of any changes to our sub-processor list and provide a reasonable opportunity to object.

International Data Transfers

When transferring data outside the European Economic Area (EEA) or other jurisdictions with strict data transfer regulations, we rely on mechanisms such as:

  • Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs)
  • Adequacy decisions by relevant authorities
  • Binding corporate rules, where applicable

These measures ensure that transferred data remains protected under equivalent standards.

Glincker will assist the Controller in fulfilling data subject rights requests, including:

  • Right to access, rectify, or erase personal data
  • Right to restrict or object to processing
  • Right to data portability
  • Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority

We will promptly inform you of any requests we receive directly from data subjects.

Security Measures

We maintain administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect personal data, including:

  • Encryption at rest and in transit
  • Role-based access control
  • Continuous vulnerability scanning and patching
  • Employee security awareness training
  • Incident monitoring and logging

Further details can be found in our Security Policy.

Breach Notification

In the event of a confirmed data breach that affects personal data, we will:

  • Notify you without undue delay
  • Provide details about the nature and scope of the breach
  • Support investigation and mitigation efforts
  • Assist with any required regulatory reporting

Data Retention and Deletion

At the end of our service relationship or upon your written request, we will:

  • Return all personal data to you, or
  • Securely delete the data, unless legal obligations require retention

You may export your data at any time through our platform or by contacting support.

Audits and Compliance

You may audit our data protection practices up to once per year or in the event of a data breach. We may also provide access to documentation and third-party audit reports (e.g., SOC 2, ISO 27001) upon request.

Term and Termination

This DPA remains in effect as long as we process personal data on your behalf. Termination of the main service agreement also ends this DPA, unless data retention is required by law.
