Under the GDPR, a sub-processor is any business or contractor that customer data may pass through as a side effect of using Competitors App’s service. This definition is very broad and includes things some might simply consider “hardware”, like cloud infrastructure.
Subprocessor staff do not have access to customer data and they are bound by their privacy and security compliance and terms.
Within the context of GDPR, it’s important to recognize that Competitors App may utilize subprocessors to support their functionalities. These subprocessors could include hosting providers, analytics services, or other third-party integrations necessary for the app’s operation.
Sub-Processor Name | Purpose of processing | Location of Processing |
|---|---|---|
Getgist | Customer Support | USA |
Hubspot | CRM | USA |
Slack | Internal Communication | USA |
Amazon AWS | Server & Data Backups | USA |
Posthog | Product Analytics and Improvements | USA |
Due Diligence
Competitors app undertakes to use a commercially reasonable selection process by which it evaluates the security, privacy, and confidentiality practices of proposed processors and sub-processors.
Contractual Safeguards
Competitors app requires its processors and sub-processors to satisfy equivalent obligations required from Competitors app (as a Processor or a Controller) as set forth in applicable Data Protection Addendum and Data Protection laws.
Process to Engage New Sub-processors
Competitors app maintains a rigorous process for engaging new sub-processors. This process involves comprehensive due diligence and assessment to ensure that any potential sub-processor meets our stringent standards for privacy, security, and data protection.
Before engaging a new sub-processor, we conduct a thorough evaluation of their capabilities, policies, and practices to ascertain their compliance with relevant regulatory frameworks, including GDPR. This assessment includes a review of their security measures, data handling procedures, and contractual commitments to ensure alignment with our own standards and obligations.
Throughout the engagement with a sub-processor, we maintain ongoing monitoring and oversight to ensure continued compliance with our standards and regulatory obligations. This includes regular assessments of their performance, security practices, and adherence to contractual requirements.
By following this robust process, Competitors app ensures that any sub-processors engaged in supporting our services uphold the highest standards of privacy, security, and compliance, thereby safeguarding the interests of our customers and their data.
Updates
Competitors App will keep this list updated by adding the names of new or replacement sub-processors.
