However, we may enter into data-sharing agreements or disclose the collected data to third parties in order to provide the Services to you. We have detailed the manner in which we share the collected data below:

1. Sharing with third parties 

API and integration partners: If your connection to the Platform is enabled through an integration with a third-party service, we may share information about your use of the Platform with that third-party. We may share your information with our third-party partners in order to receive additional information about you. We may also share your information with third-party partners to create offers that may be of interest to you.

Service Providers: We work with third-party service providers to perform services on our behalf, and we may share your information with such service providers to help us provide our Services through the Platform.

Third-party services: The Platform may allow you to connect with other websites, products, or services that we do not have any control over. However, usage of such third-party services is subject to their privacy policies and not within our control. We recommend that you have a look at their privacy policies before agreeing to use their services.

Subsidiaries and holding companies: We share data with our subsidiaries and affiliates to help us provide our Services or conduct data processing on our behalf.

Change in control: While negotiating or in relation to a change of corporate control such as a restructuring, merger, or sale of our assets, we may have to disclose the databases and information we have stored in the course of our operations.

2. Sharing with law enforcement when needed

If any governmental authority or law enforcement officers request or require any information and we think disclosure is required or appropriate in order to comply with laws, regulations, or a legal process.

How is Payment Data Handled?

We may provide the functionality to load the payment gateway through debit card, credit card or any other payment mode and collect data in relation to these payment modes (“Payment Data”). The information regarding your Payment Data may be stored once you make the first payment by the card/other payment mode and is protected against unauthorized access. For this purpose, a certified payment provider is used whose systems meet the applicable security standards, such as example PCI-DSS (Payment Card Industry – Data Security Standard). The Payment Data is stored by the contracted PCI-DSS-certified payment provider for recurring transactions. We do not, ourselves, store your Payment Data and if we ever do, it will be only in abbreviated form for analysis purposes or to prevent fraud.

In order to ensure that the debit/credit card/other payment mode is used by the legitimate owner and to prevent cases of fraud, the Payment Data and card information is transferred to one or more external payment security services. This transfer may also include additional personal data. The external payment security services may process personal data on our behalf.

What are Your Rights to Control the Data?

It is important for us that you remain in control of your data. You alone are the owner and manipulator of your data, and you shall have the right to restrict our usage of the data in the manner provided below.
