GDPR Compliance

Our GDPR Commitment

dense-weaves is committed to complying with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and protecting the privacy rights of individuals in the European Economic Area (EEA). This page outlines how we meet our obligations under GDPR.

Legal Basis for Processing

We process personal data only when we have a legal basis to do so. Our legal bases include:

• Consent: You have given clear consent for us to process your personal data for a specific purpose
• Contract: Processing is necessary to fulfill a contract with you
• Legal Obligation: Processing is necessary to comply with the law
• Legitimate Interests: Processing is necessary for our legitimate interests, provided these do not override your rights

Your Rights Under GDPR

If you are located in the EEA, you have the following rights:

Right to Access

You have the right to request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.

Right to Rectification

You can request that we correct any inaccurate or incomplete personal data.

Right to Erasure

Also known as the "right to be forgotten," you can request deletion of your personal data under certain circumstances.

Right to Restrict Processing

You can request that we limit how we use your personal data under certain conditions.

Right to Data Portability

You can request that we transfer your data to another organization or directly to you in a commonly used format.

Right to Object

You can object to our processing of your personal data based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing purposes.

Rights Related to Automated Decision Making

You have the right not to be subject to decisions based solely on automated processing that produce legal effects.

Right to Withdraw Consent

Where we rely on consent as the legal basis for processing, you can withdraw that consent at any time.

Data Breach Notification

In the event of a personal data breach that is likely to result in a risk to your rights and freedoms, we will notify the relevant supervisory authority within 72 hours of becoming aware of the breach.

When we transfer personal data outside the EEA, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, such as:

• Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission
• Adequacy decisions confirming sufficient data protection
• Binding corporate rules

Data Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected or to comply with legal obligations. Our retention periods are based on:

• The nature of the data and purpose of processing
• Legal and regulatory requirements
• Potential legal claims

Right to Lodge a Complaint

You have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority if you believe our processing of your personal data violates GDPR. While we encourage you to contact us first, you may contact your local data protection authority.

Children's Data

We do not knowingly collect or process personal data from individuals under 16 years of age without parental consent.
