5. Data Privacy Framework Notice
MailToaster complies with the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (EU-U.S. DPF), the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF, and the Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (Swiss-U.S. DPF) as set forth by the U.S. Department of Commerce. MailToaster has certified to the U.S. Department of Commerce that it adheres to the Data Privacy Framework Principles with regard to the processing of personal data received from the European Union, the United Kingdom (and Gibraltar), and Switzerland.
MailToaster’s commitments under the Data Privacy Frameworks apply to personal data other than human resources data transferred from the European Union, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland.
If there is any conflict between the terms in this Privacy Policy and the Data Privacy Framework Principles, the Data Privacy Framework Principles shall govern. To learn more about the Data Privacy Framework (DPF) program, and to view our certification, please visit https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/.
With respect to personal data received or transferred pursuant to the Data Privacy Frameworks, MailToaster is subject to the investigatory and enforcement powers of the U.S. Federal Trade Commission.
Individuals have the right to obtain confirmation of whether we maintain personal data relating to them in the United States. Upon request, we will provide access to personal data that we hold and allow individuals to correct, amend, or delete such data.
We will provide individuals with the opportunity to opt out of disclosures of their personal data to third parties or of uses of their personal data for purposes materially different from those for which it was originally collected. For sensitive personal data, we will obtain affirmative express consent (opt-in) before such disclosure or use. To request to limit the use and disclosure of your personal data, please contact us at [email protected].
MailToaster may be required to disclose personal data in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements.
MailToaster remains responsible and liable under the Data Privacy Framework Principles if third-party agents that it engages to process personal data on its behalf do so in a manner inconsistent with the Principles, unless MailToaster proves that it is not responsible for the event giving rise to the damage.
In compliance with the Data Privacy Framework Principles, MailToaster commits to resolve complaints about our collection or use of personal information transferred to the United States pursuant to the Data Privacy Frameworks. Individuals with inquiries or complaints should contact us at [email protected].
MailToaster has further committed to refer unresolved privacy complaints to BBB National Programs, an independent dispute resolution mechanism based in the United States. If you do not receive timely acknowledgment of your complaint, or if your complaint is not satisfactorily addressed, please visit https://www.bbbprograms.org/dpf-complaints for more information and to file a complaint. This service is provided free of charge.
If your complaint cannot be resolved through the above channels, under certain conditions, you may invoke binding arbitration. See https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/framework-article/ANNEX-I-introduction for more information on this process.
We are committed to conducting our business in accordance with these principles in order to ensure that the confidentiality of personal information is protected and maintained.
