Roles and Responsibilities

Please note that certain data protection laws and regulations, such as the GDPR typically distinguish between two main roles for parties processing Personal Information: the “Data Controller”, who determines the purposes and means of processing; and the “Data Processor”, who processes the data on behalf of the Data Controller. Please see the below explanation where we elaborate how these roles that apply to our Services, to the extent that such laws and regulations apply.

1. Tagado is the “Data Controller” of its Website users and its customer’s contact details when required to contractually engage with a customer. With respect to such data, we assume the responsibilities of Data Controller (solely to the extent applicable under law), as set forth in this Privacy Policy. In such instances, our service providers processing such data will assume the role of “Data Processor”.
2. Tagado is the “Data Processor” of the Business Information we process on behalf of each customer who we provide our Platform to (and who is the “Data Controller” of such Personal Information). Our service providers who process such user Personal Information on our behalf are the “Sub-processors” of such Personal Information.

Disclosure of Information and Transfer of Data 

Except as otherwise provided in this Privacy Policy, we reasonably attempt to ensure that we never intentionally disclose any of your Personal Information, to any third party without having received your permission, except as provided for herein or otherwise as permitted or required under law.

We may share your Personal Information with our affiliates, subsidiaries or any third party companies and individuals to facilitate our Services or any portion thereof, such as marketing, data management or maintenance services. Personal Information of users of our Platform and Website will be shared, when such sharing is required to provide the Website, Platform and Services. In case relevant, we may also share your Personal Information with third party payment processors who will process your payment details in accordance with the highest data security standard. We may also share your information with analytics service providers for analytics purposes. Such analytics service providers set their own cookies or other identifiers on your Device, through which they can collect information about your usage of our Platform and Website. This helps us compile aggregated statistics about the effectiveness of our Platform, Website and Services. 

We may also transfer your information, including Personal Information, in connection with a corporate merger, consolidation, the sale of related assets or corporate division or other fundamental corporate changes. Furthermore, information about you may also be released in order to comply with any valid legal inquiry or process such as a search warrant, subpoena, statute or court order.
