DPA: BugProve Inc. and BugProve Kft. has
entered a DPA to ensure that data transfers from the EU to a third
country are compliant with GDPR and user data is protected at all times.
Data Processing Addendums (DPA) are made according to the standard contractual clauses (SCCs) between controllers and processors adopted by the European Commission, therefore they are qualified as appropriate safeguards for data transfers.
International transfers
BugProve is an international business. Your personal data may be shared with our affiliated companies and certain third parties who are based outside the European Economic Area ("EEA"), including in the United States of America. Any processing of your personal data by these parties will involve an export of your personal data outside the UK and the EEA. These other countries may have data protection rules that are different from your own country. We endeavour to ensure that people to whom we provide your personal data hold it subject to appropriate safeguards and controls.
Whenever we transfer your personal data out of the UK and EEA, we will ensure that a similar degree of protection is afforded to it by ensuring at least one of the following safeguards is implemented:
- We may transfer your personal data to countries that have been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data by the European Commission or the UK Government from time to time. For further details, see here.
- We may transfer your Personal Data to countries that have not been
deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal
data by the European Commission or the UK Government -- provided
that, in these cases:
- we may use specific appropriate safeguards approved by the European Commission and the UK Government, which are designed to give personal data the same protection it has in the EEA/UK (for example, requiring the recipient of personal data to enter into the relevant form of the so-called 'Standard Contractual Clauses' issued or approved from time to time); or
- in very limited circumstances, we may rely on an exception, or 'derogation', which permits us to transfer your information to such country despite the absence of an 'adequacy decision' or 'appropriate safeguards' -- for example, reliance on your explicit consent to that transfer.
Where we store your personal data
All information you provide to us is stored on our secure servers at our service providers at:
Company name: Amazon Web Services, Inc.
Registered seat: 410 Terry Avenue North, Seattle, WA 98109-5210 U.S.A.

Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the Internet is not completely secure. Once we have received your information, we use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorised access.
Your Rights
Under certain circumstances, you have rights under data protection laws in relation to your personal data.
If you wish to exercise any of the rights set out below, please contact us at privacy@bugprove.com.
You have the right to:
Request access to your personal data (commonly known as a "data subject access request"). This enables you to receive a copy of the personal data we hold about you and to check that we are lawfully processing it.
Request correction of the personal data that we hold about you. This enables you to have any incomplete or inaccurate data we hold about you corrected, though we may need to verify the accuracy of the new data you provide to us.
Request erasure of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to delete or remove personal data where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it. You also have the right to ask us to delete or remove your personal data where you have successfully exercised your right to object to processing (see below), where we may have processed your information unlawfully or where we are required to erase your personal data to comply with local law. Note, however, that we may not always be able to comply with your request of erasure for specific legal reasons which will be notified to you, if applicable, at the time of your request.
Object to processing of your personal data where we are relying on a legitimate interest (or those of a third party) and there is something about your particular situation which makes you want to object to processing on this ground as you feel it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedoms. You also have the right to object where we are processing your personal data for direct marketing purposes. In some cases, we may demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate grounds to process your information which override your rights and freedoms.
Request restriction of processing of your personal data. This enables you to ask us to suspend the processing of your personal data in the following scenarios:
If you want us to establish the data's accuracy.
- Where our use of the data is unlawful but you do not want us to erase it.
- Where you need us to hold the data even if we no longer require it as you need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.
- You have objected to our use of your data but we need to verify whether we have overriding legitimate grounds to use it.
Request the transfer of your personal data to you or to a third party. We will provide to you, or a third party you have chosen, your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. Note that this right only applies to automated information which you initially provided consent for us to use or where we used the information to perform a contract with you.
Withdraw consent at any time where we are relying on consent to process your personal data. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdraw your consent. If you withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide certain products or services to you. We will advise you if this is the case at the time you withdraw your consent.
Complaints
You have the right to make a complaint at any time to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), the UK supervisory authority for data protection issues (www.ico.org.uk). We would, however, appreciate the chance to deal with your concerns before you approach the ICO so please contact us in the first instance at privacy@bugprove.com.
On the basis of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) we shall provide information to you on action taken on a request on your rights without undue delay and in any event within one month of receipt of the request. That period may be extended by two further months where necessary, taking into account the complexity and number of the requests. We shall inform you of any such extension within one month of receipt of the request, together with the reasons for the delay. Where you make the request by electronic means, the information shall be provided by electronic means where possible.
According to GDPR you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement if you consider that the processing of personal data relating to you infringes the GDPR. You shall have the right to an effective judicial remedy against a legally binding decision of a supervisory authority concerning you. Proceedings against a supervisory authority shall be brought before the courts of the EU Member State where the supervisory authority is established.
You have the right to an effective judicial remedy where you consider that your rights under GDPR have been infringed as a result of the processing of your personal data in non-compliance with GDPR.
European Representative
Pursuant to Article 27 of GDPR, BugProve has appointed European Data Protection Office (EDPO) as its GDPR Representative in the EU. You may contact EDPO regarding matters pertaining to the GDPR:
- by using EDPO's online request form: https://edpo.com/gdpr-data-request/, or
