GDPR for Scrappey

Effective Date: 1st of May 2023

Scrappey and the GDPR

Overview

Scrappey is a data processor based in the European Union and is subject to the regulations of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). We are fully compliant with the GDPR requirements.

Scrappey acts as a data processor, processing internet data on behalf of our customers. We have implemented procedures to honor the "right to be forgotten" as mandated by the GDPR. Upon request, we promptly delete a customer's data. We retain data for trial customers and canceled customers until they specifically request its deletion. The sole purpose of retaining such data is to allow customers to reactivate their accounts whenever they desire.

After account deletion, the only customer data we retain long-term is the information necessary to fulfill our legal obligations for bookkeeping purposes. Specifically, we maintain a record of all invoices and payments containing sufficient details to meet our legal requirements.

In instances where an individual or organization creates a trial account but does not convert it to a paid subscription, the account is not deleted unless requested by the account owner.

Scrappey has a workforce of less than 250 employees, which exempts us from maintaining records of data processing activities.

We take all reasonable measures to ensure the reliability of our personnel who have access to personal data. Scrappey has implemented appropriate technical and organizational safeguards to maintain the confidentiality and security of personal data, protecting it against accidental loss, unlawful destruction, alteration, disclosure, or unauthorized access.

Our primary hosting provider is Digital Ocean, a cloud hosting service. We conduct regular audits to ensure compliance with recommended security guidelines on Digital Ocean for data protection.
