It lets you know what rights and choices you have regarding our use of your information and how you can access and update that information should you wish to do so.

 

2. EU Residents

If you are a resident of the European Union, then, to the extent that the information Thundra collects and uses is your personal data, Thundra will process and transfer your personal data when Thundra has an adequate legal basis to do so.  This means Thundra collects, uses and transfers your personal data where:

  • you give Thundra consent to collect, use or transfer the personal data for a specific purpose

The Customer (or Third Party Provider), and not Thundra, is processing the data as the controller of such data. As the controller, the Customer (or Third Party Provider) decides why and how to process such data, and the Customer (or Third Party Provider) privacy notices will detail such collection and use. Thundra is processing the Customer (or Third Party Provider) data merely as a processor of the data, and only processes the data based on the Customer’s (or Third Party Provider’s) express instructions.
