II. Overview

A. Scope

This notice applies to users of Tails, Beaks and Feets App’s services anywhere in the world,

including users of Tails, Beaks and Feets App’s apps, websites, features or other services.

This notice describes how Tails, Beaks and Feets App and its affiliates collect and use data. This

notice applies to all Tails, Beaks and Feets App users globally.

All those subject to this notice are referred to as “users” in this notice.

Please contact us here or through the addresses below with any questions regarding our

practices in a particular country or region.


Tails, Beaks and Feets App operates, and processes personal data, globally; wherever and

whenever you travel, your data travels with you so we can offer you a seamless experience. We

also respect your data protection rights whether you are in your home country or elsewhere.


This means that we may transfer personal data to countries other than your home country in

order to provide our services in a different country at your request. We may also transfer

personal data to another country if that is necessary to respond to a customer support request

that you submitted outside your region. Because our services involve multiple users at the

same time, limited personal data may be accessible to the other user in another country.

We do so in order to fulfill our agreements with all our users, or based on users’ instructions or

prior consent, adequacy decisions for the relevant countries or other transfer mechanisms as

may be available under applicable law, such as the Standard Contractual Clauses.

We may also transfer data to other countries in order to respond to a request for personal data

from a law enforcement agency. To provide additional safeguards to these data transfers,

Tails, Beaks and Feets App applies a robust internal procedure for processing these requests.

Tails, Beaks and Feets App only discloses personal data to law enforcement agencies in a

manner that is consistent with the regulatory requirements of applicable laws, such as the

GDPR.


To help provide equivalent data protection wherever you use our services, Tails, Beaks and

Feets App has implemented the following measures across the globe:

policies and procedures to limit access to, and the processing of, personal data for defined

purposes;

specific training of personnel responsible for managing personal data;

a government data access policy that refuses government access to data, except when

disclosure is mandated by applicable laws including the EU GDPR, there is imminent risk of

serious harm to individuals or consent is obtained;


robust protection of data while it is in transit between Tails, Beaks and Feets App apps and our

servers, and when the data is processed on our servers. This includes encryption and the use of

pseudonymised data to help protect users’ full identity against unauthorised disclosure.

Questions, comments and complaints about Tails, Beaks and Feets App’s data practices can

be submitted here. You may also use this form to submit a question to Tails, Beaks and Feets

App’s Data Protection Officer and to ask us for a copy of the Standard Contractual Clauses or

other transfer mechanisms in place for the data processing activity of your inquiry.
