How long do we process your personal data?
We process your personal data either as a joint data controller with our clients or as a data processor on behalf of and under the directions of our clients.
When we act as a data controller jointly, we store your personal data for the entire period the particular client uses our services and 3 months following the termination of their account on our platform.
In some cases, two or more clients provide your data to us simultaneously. In such a case, we store your personal data during the entire period during which one of such clients uses our services and 3 months thereafter.
When we act as a data processor, we process your personal data only for the period of time specified by the client.
What is the legal basis for your personal data processing?
When we act as a joint data controller with a client, we process your personal data on the basis of our, the clients’, and your legitimate interests. These interests are specified in our Privacy Policy.
When we act as a data processor, we process your personal data only on the сlients’ behalf and due to their directions. In this case, we process your personal data on the basis of either our, the clients’, and your legitimate interests or duty to perform a contract with the clients.
We also urge our clients to ensure the presence of the legal grounds for your personal data processing under the GDPR and believe that clients have the rights to provide your personal data to us.

How does Snov.io comply with articles 13 and 14 of the GDPR?
Articles 13 and 14 of the GDPR oblige the data controller to provide certain information to the data subjects.
At the same time, Article 26 of the GDPR provides that where personal data is processed by joint controllers, they have to determine their responsibilities for compliance with obligations under the GDPR themselves.
Under our Joint Controllership Agreement concluded with each our client, our and clients’ responsibilities are divided as follows:
- we are responsible for the technical and organizational security of your personal data
- clients are responsible for informing you regarding the processing of your personal data
When we act as a data processor, it is the responsibility of the respective data controller to provide you with the respective information under the Articles 13 and 14 of the GDPR.
You can find all information regarding your personal data processing in our Privacy Policy, Cookies Policy, Joint Controllership Agreement, and other articles of our Knowledgebase.
In some cases, our data processing activities fall under Brazilian data protection laws. If you want to find out how Snov.io complies with the LGPD, click here.
