Fundamental Principles

Your privacy is critically important to us. At Shoutem we have a few fundamental principles:

  • We don’t ask you for personal information unless we truly need it. (We can’t stand services that ask you for things like your gender or income level for no apparent reason.)
  • We don’t share your personal information with anyone except to comply with the law, develop our products, or protect our rights.
  • We don’t store personal information on our servers unless required for the on-going operation of one of our services.
  • In our social networking and mobile application products, we aim to make it as simple as possible for you to control what’s visible to the public, seen by search engines, kept private, and permanently deleted.

Below is our privacy policy which incorporates these goals:

Shoutem operates several websites including shoutem.com (collectively, the “Websites”), as well as a number of mobile applications on behalf of our customers (collectively, the “Applications”). It is Shoutem’s policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our Websites and Applications.

We will therefore not report to the Data Protection Authority itself. Of course, as a processor, we will inform you correctly, timely and completely about relevant incidents, so that you, as controller, can comply with these legal obligations. To determine a data breach, we use the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Policy Rules on the obligation to report data leaks as a guide.

A data breach covers all security incidents, as a result of which the protection of personal data is breached at any time or as a result of which the personal data are exposed to loss or unlawful processing.

If there is a data breach at a supplier of ours, we will of course also report this. You do not have to contact our suppliers directly, we are your contact point.

We try to provide you with all information that is necessary to file a report with the Data Protection Authority and / or the person (s) involved. If this information is not yet known, for example because the data breach is still being investigated, we will provide the information you need to at least first make a preliminary report to the Data Protection Authority and / or the data subject (s). Here we follow the information list from the aforementioned policy rules. This in any case contains the nature of the infringement, a description of the observed, the probable consequences of the infringement and the measures taken and to be taken to limit and remedy the negative consequences of the data breach.
