What this privacy notice covers
This privacy notice covers the processing of personal data where Snowballn' acts as the data controller. We act as the data controller when Snowballn' exercises overall control of the personal data processed - in other words, when We decide how personal data is collected, stored and used.

How we lawfully process your personal data

The below table describes the purposes we may process your personal data and our lawful basis for doing so.
Who we share your personal data with
Like most companies, We sometimes need to share your personal data with third parties to help provide our service to you.
We only ever share your personal data with third party data processors where we are satisfied there is an appropriate contract, called a data processing agreement, in place.
Where we need to store your personal data outside of the United Kingdom, we make sure your personal data remains subject to the same robust protections as it would be in the United Kingdom. For example, we either ensure the country we are transferring the personal data to has been recognised as having adequate privacy regulations or that there are appropriate safeguards in place (as per Article 46, 47 or 49 of the UK GDPR).
For a copy of the safeguards relied on to transfer your personal data outside of the United Kingdom, please get in touch with us.
How long we keep you personal data for
We only ever keep your personal data for as long as we have a legitimate business reason to retain it. When we no longer have a business reason to keep your data, we securely delete it.
