The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a comprehensive data protection law that came into effect on May 25, 2018, across the European Union (EU). It strengthens the protection of personal data and gives individuals more control over how their data is collected, processed, and stored.
At MoneyTipBits.com, we are fully committed to complying with the GDPR requirements. This page outlines our approach to data protection and how we safeguard the personal information of our EU-based users.
Note: While GDPR is an EU regulation, we apply its principles globally to ensure the highest standard of data protection for all our users, regardless of their location.
We recognize the importance of data protection and privacy. Our commitment to GDPR compliance includes:
Under GDPR, we must have a lawful basis for processing personal data. We rely on the following lawful bases:
| Processing Purpose | Lawful Basis | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
| Providing requested services | Performance of contract | Processing necessary to fulfill our services to you |
| Marketing communications | Consent or legitimate interest | We obtain consent or have legitimate interest in promoting our services |
| Improving our services | Legitimate interest | We have a legitimate interest in improving our website and services |
| Legal compliance | Legal obligation | Processing necessary to comply with legal requirements |
| Fraud prevention | Legitimate interest | We have a legitimate interest in preventing fraud and abuse |
The GDPR provides individuals with specific rights regarding their personal data. We respect and facilitate these rights:
You have the right to obtain confirmation about whether we process your personal data and access to that data.
You have the right to have inaccurate personal data corrected and incomplete data completed.
You have the right to have your personal data erased in certain circumstances (the "right to be forgotten").
You have the right to restrict the processing of your personal data in certain circumstances.
You have the right to receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used format and transmit it to another controller.
You have the right to object to the processing of your personal data in certain circumstances.
You have the right not to be subject to decisions based solely on automated processing that significantly affect you.
Where processing is based on consent, you have the right to withdraw consent at any time.
To exercise any of your GDPR rights, please contact us using the details provided in the Contact section. We will respond to your request within one month of receipt.
We may need to verify your identity before processing your request to ensure the security of your personal data.
We have implemented appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect personal data, including:
We have implemented procedures to deal with any suspected personal data breach. In the event of a data breach that is likely to result in a risk to the rights and freedoms of individuals, we will notify the relevant supervisory authority without undue delay and within 72 hours where feasible.
If the breach is likely to result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of individuals, we will also inform affected individuals without undue delay.
As a global company, we may transfer personal data to countries outside the European Economic Area (EEA). When we do so, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, such as:
