How does Famouset keep my personal information secure?

We use appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect the personal information that we collect and process about you. The measures we use are designed to provide a level of security appropriate to the risk of processing your personal information. Specific measures we use include regular malware scanning. Your personal information is contained behind secure networks and is only accessible by a limited number of people who have special access rights to such systems and are required to keep the information confidential. We require the same level of diligence from any third party involved in the processing of your personal information in accordance with applicable law.

International data transfers

Since Famouset is operating within a global network of partners, your personal information may be transferred to and processed in countries other than the country in which you reside, including the USA and the EU. Transfers of personal data outside of your country of origin are made according to the applicable data protection laws, based on your consent where required, or with the implementation of appropriate safeguards such as, but not limited to, a decision taken by the competent data protection authority declaring that the level of data protection of the country of destination is adequate, the EU Standard Contractual Clauses or similar contracts where legally permitted.

Data retention

We retain personal information we collect from you where we have an ongoing legitimate business need to do so (for example, to provide you with a service you have requested or to comply with applicable legal, tax or accounting requirements).

When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize it or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

Your data protection rights

Please note that in many circumstances we cannot effectively do business with you without processing some personal information about you (e.g. your contact information).

You can use our online services without consenting to cookies (unless strictly necessary); the consequence is that some features may be less tailored to you.

You have the right to opt out of receiving marketing communications at any time. Please use the unsubscribe functionality on such communications.

You can submit a request to Famouset with respect to your personal information by completing this form. More information about specific rights for individuals located in the EU/EEA or California resident is described below.

We will make reasonable efforts to respond promptly to your requests in accordance with applicable laws.

Where we receive your personal information from our customers and process your personal information on their behalf when fulfilling our contractual duties, we may do so in the capacity of a processor. We do not have control over our customers’ privacy and security practices and processes. If your personal information has been submitted to us by a Famouset customer and you wish to exercise any of the above-mentioned rights, please contact the relevant customer directly, or provide us with the name of the customer so that we can appropriately refer your request to them.
