Introduction to GDPR Compliance
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a set of rules established to protect the privacy and personal data of individuals within the United Kingdom and the European Union. Our commitment at EscortReviews is to ensure the privacy and protection of our users' data. We have taken necessary steps to comply with the GDPR and provide transparency about how personal information is collected, used, and stored.
Data Collection and Processing
We collect personal data to enhance user experience on our platform by providing tailored content and facilitating interactions. The information we collect includes names, email addresses, and contact details which are necessary for account creation and service provision. Additionally, we gather data related to user activity on our website, such as IP addresses and browsing history, to improve our services. All collected data is processed lawfully, fairly, and transparently, with explicit consent from our users. We ensure that the data collected is limited to the necessary amount required for achieving legitimate purposes.
Legal Basis for Data Processing
Our processing of personal data is grounded on the lawful bases provided by the GDPR such as consent, contract, legal obligations, and legitimate interests. Depending on the circumstances, we may process data to fulfill contractual obligations, comply with legal requirements, or advance legitimate interests, such as enhancing our service offerings. We require explicit user consent for any processing that does not directly relate to the provision of our services. Users have the right to withdraw their consent at any time, which will not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
Data Storage and Security
We employ stringent security measures to protect personal data against unauthorized access, loss, or damage. This includes robust encryption methods, access controls, and secure storage facilities. Data is stored only for as long as is necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected and is securely deleted or anonymized once those purposes have been fulfilled. We regularly review our security practices to ensure compliance with the latest industry standards and legal requirements.
User Rights and Control
Under the GDPR, users have specific rights regarding their personal data. These include the right to access, rectify, or erase personal data, the right to restrict or object to processing, and the right to data portability. Users can exercise these rights by contacting us at [email protected]. We are committed to facilitating the exercise of these rights and will respond to requests in a timely manner. Users also have the right to lodge complaints with relevant supervising authorities if they believe their rights have been violated.
