GDPR Compliance

Last Updated: May 26, 2025

1. Introduction to GDPR

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a regulation in EU law on data protection and privacy for all individuals within the European Union and the European Economic Area. It addresses the export of personal data outside the EU and EEA areas.

At SmartAds, we are committed to ensuring the security and protection of the personal information that we process, and to provide a compliant and consistent approach to data protection.

2. How We Comply with GDPR

SmartAds has implemented various measures to ensure compliance with GDPR principles:

We only collect and process data that is necessary for our service
We are transparent about what data we collect and how we use it
We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure data security
We have procedures in place to handle data breaches
We conduct regular assessments of our data processing activities
We have appointed dedicated personnel responsible for data protection compliance

3. Your Rights Under GDPR

Under GDPR, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:

3.1. Right to Access

You have the right to request a copy of the personal information we hold about you and to check that we are lawfully processing it.

3.2. Right to Rectification

You have the right to request that we correct any information you believe is inaccurate or complete information you believe is incomplete.

3.3. Right to Erasure (Right to be Forgotten)

You have the right to request that we erase your personal data, under certain conditions. This includes when the data is no longer necessary for the purpose it was collected, if you withdraw consent, or if you object to the processing and there is no overriding legitimate interest.

3.4. Right to Restrict Processing

You have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your personal data, under certain conditions. This might apply when you contest the accuracy of your data, when our use of the data is unlawful but you don't want us to erase it, or when you need us to hold the data even if we no longer require it because you need it to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.

3.5. Right to Data Portability

You have the right to request that we transfer the data we've collected to another organization, or directly to you, under certain conditions.

3.6. Right to Object

You have the right to object to our processing of your personal data, under certain conditions. This includes objecting to processing for direct marketing purposes or when processing is for a task carried out in the public interest, or in the exercise of official authority, or for legitimate interests.

3.7. Rights Related to Automated Decision Making and Profiling

You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you.

4. Data Protection Officer

While we haven't formally designated a Data Protection Officer as defined by GDPR, we have a team responsible for ensuring data protection compliance and handling data protection inquiries.

5. Data Retention

We retain your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which we collected it, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data, and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means.

6. Data Transfers Outside the EEA

Some of our external third-party service providers may be based outside the European Economic Area (EEA), so their processing of your personal data will involve a transfer of data outside the EEA.

Whenever we transfer your personal data out of the EEA, we ensure a similar degree of protection by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is implemented:

We will only transfer your personal data to countries that have been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data by the European Commission.
Where we use certain service providers, we may use specific contracts approved by the European Commission which give personal data the same protection it has in Europe.
Where we use providers based in the US, we may transfer data to them if they are part of the Privacy Shield which requires them to provide similar protection to personal data shared between Europe and the US.

7. Data Breach Procedures

We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach where we are legally required to do so.

8. Cookies and Tracking

Our website uses cookies and similar tracking technologies. You can set your browser to refuse all or some browser cookies, or to alert you when websites set or access cookies. For more information about the cookies we use, please see our Cookie Policy.

9. Changes to This GDPR Policy

We may update our GDPR Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new policy on this page and updating the "Last Updated" date.
