10. Roles and Responsibilities
In summary: We are the controllers and processors of our Prospects, Users and Visitors data.
Certain data protection laws and regulations, such as the GDPR (Europe), Loi 25 (Québec) or the CCPA (California) typically distinguish between two main roles for parties processing personal data: the “data controller” (or under the CCPA, “business”), who determines the purposes and means of processing; and the “data processor” (or under the CCPA, “service provider”), who processes the data on behalf of the data controller.
Below we explain how these roles apply to our Services, to the extent that such laws and regulations apply.
Bombance is the “data controller” and the “data processor” of its Prospects, Users and Visitors data. With respect to such data, we assume the responsibilities of data controller (solely to the extent applicable under law), as set forth in this Privacy Policy. In such instances, our Service Providers - such as our third parties - processing such data will assume the role of “data processor”.
