This Policy applies to Personal Data which is collected and/or used by Zapflow in its capacity as a data controller as defined in the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2016/679, hereinafter “GDPR” or “Regulation”), for the purposes set out under section 3, “How will we use your data?”.

Client Data

When we provide Services to Clients, we sometimes process personal data as a data processor in terms of the GDPR. Zapflow does not own, control, or direct the use of any of the Client Data stored or processed by a Client or User via the Service and does not directly access such Client Data except as authorized by the Client, and on the instructions of the Client, as necessary to provide Services to the Client and its Users. Only the Client or Users are entitled to access, retrieve, and direct the use of such Client Data. Zapflow is largely unaware of what Client Data is being stored or made available by a Client or User to the Service.

We should be considered only as a processor on behalf of its Clients and Users as to any Client Data containing Personal Data that is subject to the requirements of the GDPR. Except as provided in this Privacy Policy, we do not independently cause Client Data containing Personal Data stored about the Services to be transferred or otherwise made available to third parties, except to third party subcontractors who may process such data on behalf of us in connection with our provision of Services to Clients. Such actions are performed or authorized only by the applicable Client or User.

The Client or the User is the data controller under the Regulation for any Client Data containing Personal Data, meaning that such party controls the manner such Personal Data is collected and used as well as the determination of the purposes and means of the processing of such Personal Data.

We are not responsible for the content of the Personal Data contained in the Client Data or other information stored on its servers (or its subcontractors’ servers) at the discretion of the Client or User nor are we responsible for the manner in which the Client or User collects, handles disclosure, distributes or otherwise processes such information.
