International Transfer Of Data
Your information, including Personal Data, may be transferred to — and maintained on — computers located outside of your state, province, country, or other governmental jurisdiction where the data protection laws may differ than those from your jurisdiction.
If you are located in the European Economic Area (“EEA”), information collected from you, including Personal Data, via the Service will be transferred to certain recipients located outside the EEA (including to the United States, where this website is hosted), which do not provide an adequate level of protection compared to that provided by countries in the EEA. You hereby consent to the transfer of your Personal Data to the recipients as described in this Privacy Policy, which are located outside of the EEA. You may withdraw your consent at any time. The withdrawal of consent shall not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
Common Impact will take appropriate steps to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy and no transfer of your Personal Data will take place to an organization or a country unless there are adequate controls in place including the security of your Personal Data.
Security and Retention of Data
The security of your data is important to us, but remember that no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your Personal Data, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
We may retain information provided by you, including Personal Data, for as long as necessary for the provision of the services, internal analytical purposes, or to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. The criteria used to determine the retention periods include: (i) how long the Personal Data is needed to provide the services and operate the business, (ii) the type of Personal Data collected, and (iii) whether we are subject to a legal, contractual, or similar obligation to retain the data (e.g., mandatory data retention laws, government orders to preserve data relevant to an investigation, or data that must be retained for the purposes of litigation or disputes).
