Mode and Place of Processing the Data
We employ appropriate security measures to protect User personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, modification, or destruction. The data processing is carried out using computers and/or IT-enabled tools in compliance with organizational procedures and for purposes related to the services we provide. User data may be accessible to certain authorized personnel or external parties involved in the operation of the website and its services, such as administrators, sales, marketing, legal, system administration, and third-party service providers.
Methods of Processing
EZScript takes appropriate security measures to prevent unauthorized access, disclosure, modification, or unauthorized destruction of the Data. Data processing is carried out using computers/servers and/or IT enabled tools, following organizational procedures and modes strictly related to the purposes indicated. In addition to the Data Owner, in some cases, the Data may be accessible to certain types of persons in charge, involved with the operation of this Website (administration, sales, marketing, legal, system administration) or external parties (such as third-party technical service providers, mail carriers, hosting providers, IT companies, communications agencies) appointed, if necessary, as Data Processors by the Data Owner. An updated list of these parties may be requested from the Owner at any time.
Legal Basis of Processing
The Data Owner may process certain Data including personal information relating to Users if one of the following applies:
- Users have given their consent for one or more specific purposes. Note: Under some legislations the Owner may be allowed to process certain Data including personal information until the User objects to such processing (“opt-out”), without having to rely on consent or any other of the following legal bases. This, however, does not apply, whenever the processing of the Data is subject to European data protection law;
- Provision of Data is necessary for the performance of an agreement with the User and/or for any pre-contractual obligations thereof;
- Processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which the Owner is subject;
- Processing is related to a task that is carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the Owner;
- Processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by the Owner or by a third party.
In any case, the Data Owner will help to clarify the specific legal basis that applies to the processing, and whether the provision of the Data is a statutory or contractual requirement, or a requirement necessary to enter into a contract.
Place
Data is processed at the Owner’s operating offices and in any other places where the parties involved in the processing are located. Depending on the User’s location, data transfers may involve transferring the User’s Data to a country other than their own. To find out more about the place of processing of such transferred Data, Users can check the section containing details about the processing of Personal Data.
Users are also entitled to learn about the legal basis of Data transfers to a country outside the European Union or to any international organization governed by public international law or set up by two or more countries, such as the UN, and about the security measures taken by the Owner to safeguard their Data.
If any such transfer takes place, Users can find out more by checking the relevant sections of this document or inquire with the Owner using the information provided in the contact section.
Retention time
Data shall be processed and stored for as long as required for the purpose they have been collected for. Therefore:
Data collected for purposes related to the performance of a contract between the Owner and the User shall be retained until such contract has been fully performed.
Data collected for the purposes of the Owner’s legitimate interests shall be retained as long as needed to fulfill such purposes. User may find specific information regarding the legitimate interests pursued by the Owner within the relevant sections of this document or by contacting the Owner.
The Owner may be allowed to retain Data for a longer period whenever the User has given consent to such processing if such consent is not withdrawn. Furthermore, the Owner may be obliged to retain Data for a longer period whenever required to do so for the performance of a legal obligation or upon order of an authority.
Once the retention period expires, Data shall be deleted. Therefore, the right to access, the right to erasure, the right to rectification and the right to data portability cannot be enforced after expiration of the retention period.
The Purposes of Processing
Data concerning Users is collected to allow the Owner to provide its Service, comply with its legal obligations, respond to enforcement requests, protect its rights and interests (or those of its User or third parties), detect any malicious or fraudulent activity, as well as the following: analytics, displaying content from external platforms, tag management, managing contacts and sending messages, Remarketing and behavioral targeting, contacting the User and User database management.
User Right to Object to Processing
Users have the right to object to the processing of User personal data under certain circumstances. If User personal data is processed for public interest, the exercise of official authority, or the legitimate interests pursued by the data controller, Users may object by providing valid ground related to the User situation. However, if User personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, Users have the right to object to such processing without any justification. To exercise the User right to object, please contact EZScript using the contact details provided in this document.
How to Exercise User Rights
If a User wishes to exercise their rights regarding User personal data, including withdrawing User consent, objecting to processing, accessing User data, requesting rectification or deletion of User data, or requesting data portability, Users can contact the Owner using the contact details provided in this document. We will address User requests as early as possible and within one month of receiving a User request. Please note that certain rights may be subject to legal limitations or exceptions. We may need to verify User identity before processing a User request.
The Right to Know and Portability
Users have the right to request that we disclose to User:
- The categories and sources of the personal information that we collect about a User, the purposes for which we use User information and with whom such information is shared.
- In the case of sale of personal information or disclosure for a business purpose, two separate lists where we disclose are as follows: For sales, personal information categories purchased by each category of recipient; and
For disclosures for a business purpose, the personal information categories obtained by each category of recipient.
The disclosure described above will be limited to the personal information collected or used over the past 12 months. If we deliver our response electronically, the information enclosed will be “portable,” i.e., delivered in an easily usable format to enable Users to transmit the information to another entity without hindrance – if this is technically feasible.
The Right to Request the Deletion of User Personal information
Users have the right to request that we delete any User personal information, subject to exceptions set forth by the law (such as, including but not limited to, where the information is used to identify and repair errors on this Website, to detect security incidents and protect against fraudulent or illegal activities, to exercise certain rights etc.).
If no legal exception applies, because of exercising User rights, we will delete User personal information and direct any of our service providers to do so.
How to Exercise User Rights
To exercise the rights described above, Users need to submit a User verifiable request (described below) to EZScript by contacting us via the details provided in this document.
For EZScript to respond to a User request, it is necessary that we know who Users are. Therefore, Users can only exercise the above rights by making a verifiable request which must:
- Provide sufficient information that allows us to verify individuals about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative.
- Describe a User request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.
We will not respond to any request if we cannot verify a User’s identity and confirm the personal information that relates to User. If Users cannot personally submit a verifiable request, Users can authorize a person registered with the California Secretary of State to act on a User’s behalf. If User’s are adults, Users can make a verifiable request on behalf of a minor under User parental authority. Users can submit a maximum of 2 requests over 12 months.
How and When We Handle User Request
We will confirm receipt of the User verifiable request within 10 days and provide information about how we will process the User request.
We will respond to User requests within 45 days of its receipt. Should we need more time, we will explain to Users the reasons why, and how much more time we need. In this regard, please note that we may take up to 90 days to fulfill User requests.
Our disclosure(s) will cover the preceding 12-month period. Should we deny a User request, we will explain to said User the reasons behind our denial.
We do not charge a fee to process or respond to User verifiable request unless such request is manifestly unfounded or excessive. In such cases, we may charge a reasonable fee, or refuse to act on the request. In either case, we will communicate our choices and explain the reasons behind it.
Additional Information and Contact
For any additional information or inquiries regarding the collection and processing of User personal data, or if User have any concerns about this privacy policy, please contact the Data Owner using the contact details provided in this document.
Legal Action and Disclosure of Personal Data
We may use User personal data for legal purposes, including in court proceedings or against improper use of our website or services. We may also disclose User personal data if required by law or in response to a request from public authorities.

“Do Not Track” Requests

Additional Information for California Consumers
This section supplements the information contained in this privacy policy specifically for consumers residing in California, United States, in accordance with the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).
The categories of personal information collected, disclosed, or sold, and the purposes for such collection, are outlined in this privacy policy. Please refer to the relevant sections for detailed information.
Sale within the context of the CCPA is defined as: ‘selling, renting, releasing, disclosing, disseminating, making available, transferring, or otherwise communicating orally, in writing, or by electronic or other means, a consumer’s personal information by the business to another business or a third party for monetary or other valuable consideration.
Users have the right to opt out of the sale of User personal information. If Users wish to exercise this right or require further information, please contact us using the contact details provided in this policy.
Valuable Consideration
While the CCPA does not currently explicitly define “valuable consideration”, under Californian contract law it is defined as “any benefit conferred, or agreed to be conferred, upon the promisor, by any other person, to which the promisor is not lawfully entitled, or any prejudice suffered, or agreed to be suffered, by such person, other than such as he is at the time of consent lawfully bound to suffer, as an inducement to the promisor, is a good consideration for a promise.” (Cal. Civ. Code § 1605).
Within this context, a “valuable consideration” can be broadly interpreted as meaning all agreements where personal information is exchanged – and the transferring entity receives any benefit to which it would not be legally entitled to without the agreement.
