In preparing for the European Union’s (EU) General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), effective on May 25th 2018, we have implemented processes and procedures to ensure that we meet our data obligations. ### What's covered: How do we use your personal information? What are my data rights as a Maker user? What has Maker done to comply? Does Maker offer DPAs? Does Maker have sub-processors? How can Maker help my business meet GDPR obligations? Here is an overview of how Maker processes personal data and what we have done to meet our GDPR obligations and help our customers do the same: We process your personal information (e.g., name, email, company) for our legitimate business interests (e.g. personalization, direct marketing, monitoring, logistics and web analytics). In other words, the non-sensitive data we collect is necessary for us to render our services to you, the customer. You maintain the right to object to this processing at any time. To delete your account and all data associated, go to "Edit Settings" --> "Delete Account". Within seven business days of your request, all data associated with your account, including the account itself, will be hard deleted. Note: this action cannot be undone.

Maker has done an exhaustive review of our internal procedures to ensure that our guidelines, and those of our sub-processors, comply with the new General Data Protection Regulations. This includes gathering DPAs from all current sub-processors, offering DPAs to any existing and all future customers, and enabling a clear and obstacle-free process for all customers to request access to, rectification and erasure of their data. ## Does Maker offer Data Processing Addendums (DPA) to their paid customers? Yes. All contracts signed after May 25th will include DPA by default. If you are a current customer and would like to request a DPA, please request one from your Customer Success Manager. We do. In spirit of transparency, here's a running list of our sub-processors: Customer relationship management API Cloud infrastructure Image processing Error & system monitoring Content delivery system User analytics We have DPAs in place with all of the sub-processors listed above. But we may update this list from time to time as our business needs change. Maker has several features to help our customers understand the use of their personal data. Some of the key capabilities include: * Data erasure for “right to be forgotten” requests * Amendment of data for “right to rectify” requests For more information on how we can help you meet GDPR obligations, please contact .
