  • Litterati is committed to secure and protect our users’ personal data.

    In case of transfers of personal data to countries outside the European Economic Area, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place to guarantee the continued protection of users' personal data.

    To comply with the GDPR requirements for international data transfers, we conclude, where necessary, the new version of the Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) as adopted by the European Commission with our data importers. For more information on the SCCs, please see here.

  • As a benefit to our users and customers, we have, where necessary, implemented supplementary security and data protection measures to supplement the safeguards under SCCs. These supplementary measures ensure that the data Litterati transfers outside the European Economic Area, is protected up to the GDPR-standard or an essentially equivalent level. These supplementary measures reflect the Recommendations 01/2020 of the European Data Protection Board for addressing the decision of the EU’s Court of Justice in the Schrems II case and article 14 of the SCCs.

    Litterati’s supplementary measures include:

    First, we are committed to review the legality of government access requests and challenge these requests where there is a lawful basis to do so.

    Second, we will inform Litterati users and customers if Litterati would receive a government access request, unless we are prohibited by law.

    Third, we will document and record any government access requests and the response provided, including the legal reasoning and customer/data subject involved, and make the records available to our users, unless we are prohibited to do so by law.

    We stress that to date Litterati has not received any such requests and we are unlikely to ever receive one.

    Because we have taken the necessary supplementary measures required under the Schrems II ruling, Litterati’s customers that are subject to the GDPR enjoy an immediate advantage in meeting their own respective compliance obligations under the applicable data protection laws.

    For more information on our GDPR compliance, please contact us at privacy@litterati.org.
