International data transfers and security
We take security extremely seriously and have technologies, processes and security protocols to protect against the loss or theft of personal data. Our security processes include:
We will report any breach of Personal Data, and do so as fast as we can; we aim to let people know within 24 hours.
We use external servers monitored by Microsoft Azure Cloud Platform, a world-leader in data storage and security. Access to any business account is strictly limited and a register is kept of all access. Personal information can only be partially accessed for business technical support, billing or maintenance reasons. Played has strict internal data handling policies that all employees with access to data commit too.
We will only send data outside of the European Economic Area (‘EEA’) to work with third parties who we use to deliver services to you or to comply with a legal duty. If we do transfer data outside the EEA, we will make sure that it is protected in the same way as if it were being used in the EEA. We will use one of the following safeguards to ensure that it is protected:
How long we hold your data? We keep your data only for as long as we need it. How long we need data depends on what we are using it for, whether that is to provide services to you, for our own legitimate interests (described above) or so that we can comply with the law. We will actively review the information we hold and when there is no longer a customer, legal or business need for us to hold it, we will either delete it securely or in some cases anonymise it. These principles are extended to any third party services that we share your data with.
What should I do if I have concerns or complaints? If you have any concerns or complaints about Played's processing of your personal data, please email us at support@played.co. Note that you have the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority responsible for the protection of personal data in the country where you live or work, or where you think a breach of data protection laws might have occurred.
