GDPR Compliance Statement

At SlashExperts, Inc we value your privacy and are dedicated to protecting the personal information we collect and process. We adhere to the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) to ensure that personal data is handled responsibly and transparently. Our compliance efforts are designed to uphold your rights and support data privacy in every aspect of our operations.

Lawful Data Collection and Processing

We collect and process personal data only when there is a lawful basis to do so, such as consent, legitimate interests, contractual necessity, or compliance with legal obligations. Our processes ensure that personal data collection is limited to what is necessary for specific, legitimate purposes.

Transparency and Communication

Our privacy policy clearly outlines how we collect, use, store, and share your data, including the types of personal information we handle and the purposes for processing it. We are committed to communicating openly about our data practices and offering transparent options for you to manage your data preferences.

Security and Data Protection Measures

To safeguard personal information from unauthorized access, loss, alteration, or disclosure, we implement industry-standard security protocols and regular security audits. We use encryption, access controls, and other protective measures to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of your data.

User Rights and Control

We respect your rights under the GDPR and provide a simple, accessible way to exercise them:

Right to Access: You may request access to your personal data and obtain a copy of the information we hold about you.

Right to Rectification: You can request the correction of any inaccurate or incomplete data.

Right to Erasure: You have the right to request deletion of your personal data, subject to certain legal and contractual obligations.

Right to Restriction of Processing: Under specific circumstances, you may request restricted use of your personal data.

Right to Data Portability: We support the transfer of your data in a commonly used format to another data controller, where applicable.

Right to Object: You can object to data processing based on legitimate interests or direct marketing.

Consent and Data Minimization

Where applicable, we seek your consent for data processing activities and provide options to withdraw consent at any time. We also limit data collection to what is necessary for specific purposes and avoid excessive or irrelevant data processing, ensuring that we respect the principle of data minimization.

Data Retention and Disposal

We retain personal data only as long as it is needed to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected or to meet legal requirements. When no longer required, data is securely deleted or anonymized in accordance with GDPR data retention standards.

Third-Party Data Sharing and Transfer

Personal data may be shared with third-party service providers or partners, but only when necessary for specific purposes. We perform due diligence on third parties and ensure that they comply with GDPR requirements. When personal data is transferred outside of the EU, we implement adequate safeguards, such as Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs), to protect the data.

Data Breach Management and Reporting

In the unlikely event of a data breach, we have procedures in place to respond promptly and effectively. Should a breach affect your personal data, we will notify you and relevant authorities, as required under GDPR guidelines.

Data Protection Officer (DPO) and Contact Information

We have appointed a Data Protection Officer (DPO) to oversee GDPR compliance and data protection initiatives. The DPO serves as a point of contact for inquiries regarding your personal data rights and our data handling practices.

For questions about our GDPR compliance, to exercise your data rights, or to discuss any privacy-related concerns, please reach out to hello@slashexperts.com. You may also contact us for further information on our privacy practices.

We continuously review our data practices, update our security measures, and enhance our privacy controls in response to evolving regulations and industry standards.
