1. Our Commitment to GDPR Compliance
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a comprehensive data protection law in the EU that came into effect on May 25, 2018. It gives individuals greater control over their personal data and requires organizations to be transparent about data collection and use.

Right to Rectification
You have the right to request that we correct any inaccurate or incomplete personal data we hold about you.

You have the right to request a copy of your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format for your own purposes.

You have the right to object to our processing of your personal data in certain circumstances, including for direct marketing purposes or where processing is based on legitimate interests.
Rights Related to Automated Decision Making and Profiling
You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning you or significantly affects you.
5. How to Exercise Your Rights
You can exercise your rights in the following ways:
5.1 Within the App
Many of your rights can be exercised directly within the SnapSpend app:
- Access and Data Portability: In the app, go to Profile → User Account Settings → Export My Data
- Rectification: You can update your personal details in the Profile section
- Erasure: To delete your account and associated data, go to Profile → User Account Settings → Delete Account
- Object/Restrict Processing: Modify your privacy preferences in Profile → Privacy Settings
5.2 By Contacting Us
You can also exercise your rights by contacting our Data Protection Officer at dpo@snapspend.net. Please include:

- Your email address associated with your SnapSpend account
- A clear description of which right(s) you want to exercise
- Any relevant details to help us process your request
6. Our Response Timeline
We will respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it may take us longer if your request is particularly complex or you have made several requests. In this case, we will notify you and keep you updated.
There is no fee for most requests, but we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive, or excessive. Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.
7. International Data Transfers
As our services operate globally, your personal data may be transferred to, and processed in, countries outside of the European Economic Area (EEA). These countries may have data protection laws different from those in your country.
We ensure that such transfers are conducted in accordance with applicable data protection laws. We have implemented safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission to ensure your personal data receives an adequate level of protection.
8. Data Breach Procedures
We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected personal data breach. We will notify you and any applicable supervisory authority of a breach when we are legally required to do so.
9. Complaints
If you are not satisfied with our response to your request or believe our processing of your personal data does not comply with data protection law, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority responsible for data protection in your country of residence.
In the EU, you can find your national data protection authority on the European Data Protection Board website.
We would, however, appreciate the chance to address your concerns before you approach the authority, so please contact us in the first instance.
