2. Roles Under Data Protection Law

2.1 Two Distinct Roles

Our role under data protection law depends on whose data is involved:

(A) When you, the Customer, use the Service to communicate with End Recipients:

  • You are the Data Controller for the End Recipients' data (you decide why and how to contact them)
  • We are the Data Processor, processing End Recipient data on your instructions
  • Our processing is governed by our Data Processing Agreement (DPA)

(B) When we collect data about you, the Customer, for our own business operations:

  • We are the Data Controller for your account information, billing information, and how you use the Service

This Privacy Policy covers both roles. The DPA governs the Processor relationship in detail.

  • Providing privacy notices to End Recipients
