INFORMATION ABOUT THE GENERAL DATA PROTECTION REGULATION (GDPR)
We may collect and use information from you if you reside in the European Economic Area (EEA). In this section of our Privacy Policy, we will explain exactly how and why this data is collected and how we keep it protected against replication or misuse.
WHAT IS GDPR?
GDPR is an EU-wide privacy and data protection law that regulates how businesses protect the data of EU residents and enhances the control EU residents have over their personal data.
WHAT IS PERSONAL DATA?
Any data relating to an identifiable or identifiable individual. GDPR covers a broad spectrum of information that could be used alone or in combination with other information to identify a person. Personal data goes beyond a person’s name or email address.
Some examples include financial information, political opinions, genetic data, biometric data, IP addresses, physical address, sexual orientation, and ethnic origin. Data protection principles include requirements such as:
Personal data collected must be processed in a fair, legal, and transparent way and should only be used in a way that a person would reasonably expect.
Personal data should only be collected for a specific purpose and used only for that purpose. Organizations must specify why they need personal data when they collect it.
Personal data should not be kept longer than necessary to fulfill its purpose.
Individuals covered by the GDPR have the right to access their own personal data. They can also request a copy of their data and have their data updated, deleted, restricted, or moved to another organization.
WHY IS GDPR IMPORTANT?
GDPR adds new requirements regarding how companies must protect the personal data of the individuals they collect and process. It also raises the bar for compliance by increasing enforcement and imposing higher fines for non-compliance. Beyond these facts, it’s simply the right thing to do. At PHOTOGRAPHY PERU, we firmly believe that the privacy of your data is very important, and we already have robust security and privacy practices that go beyond the requirements of this new regulation.
INDIVIDUAL DATA SUBJECT RIGHTS: ACCESS, PORTABILITY, AND ERASURE
We are committed to helping our clients comply with GDPR data subject rights requirements. PHOTOGRAPHY PERU processes or stores all personal data with providers that comply with Data Protection Act (DPA) and have undergone thorough vetting. We store all conversations and personal data for up to 6 years, unless your account is deleted. In which case, we delete all data in accordance with our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, but we will not retain it for more than 60 days.
We understand that if you work with EU clients, you need to be able to provide them with the ability to access, update, retrieve, and delete personal data. We have been set up as self-service from the beginning and have always given you access to your data and your clients’ data. Our customer support team is here to answer any questions you may have about working with the API.
