European Economic Area
The General Data Privacy Regulation (“GDPR”) affords additional data protection rights to EU data subjects. For example, with respect to EU data subjects, the definition of personal data includes pseudonymous data such as an IP address, a mobile advertising ID or a cookie ID. EU Data subjects have the right to complain to EU Supervisory Authorities and the right to access, port, correct and delete certain personal data processed by AppAspire LLC (e.g., via the Website) and those Partners that serve ads on our behalf to EU data subjects via the Agency. You may access those rights with respect to AppAspire LLC by scrolling up and reading the section entitled “Data Subject Access Rights” or by sending us an email at privacy@appaspire.com. While AppAspire LLC does not physically store personal data in the context of the Agency, we do have Clients located in the EU and we do place media buys on behalf of Clients which may collect data from data subjects located in the EU. Our Clients and Publishers direct us to process data under their general instructions but we may direct our technology Partners to adjust advertising campaigns where we feel appropriate. We rely on the consent of the individual to process personal data in some instances (for example, when the user inputs personal data onto a web form of our website). On other occasions, AppAspire LLC may process personal data when needed to fulfil a contract with a client or partner or where required to do so by law. We may also process data when it is in our or our clients’ legitimate interests to do this and when these interests are not overridden by the individual’s data protection rights (which may vary based on an individual’s jurisdiction). Certain Publishers, Clients and Partners choose not to operate in the EU and/or collect data from EU data subjects – and each has a process to ensure they are not collecting personal data from the EU in relation to the Agency. To the extent that our processing activities require the transfer of personal data from EU data subjects to a jurisdiction that does not have an adequate designation from the EU, we will find a suitable data transfer mechanism such as the Standard Contractual Clauses. If you have questions about this, or want to understand your rights in more detail, please feel free to contact us at privacy@appaspire.com.
