8. OUR DATA PROTECTION PRACTICES

Clueo values your privacy; we maintain adequate and sophisticated data protection practices when it comes to securing your data from unauthorized access or use.

All the data you transmit via the Clueo App is encrypted using a secure HTTPS connection. For example, we encrypt sensitive data, such as your savings goal and transaction name, in our database. In addition, we encourage all users to use passwords that are secure as much as possible. We also employ a Pin Lock feature on the Clueo App.

In addition to the technical safeguards employed above, we do not share personal data unless as described under this Policy. We do not share data with employees (or people within the company) unless it’s on a need-to-know basis.

However, users are aware that no method of transmitting data over the internet is 100% secure. Due to this, we cannot guarantee users that their data is 100% secure from unauthorized access or use. Clueo performs its data protection obligations accordingly; however, we cannot guarantee the security of your data or guarantee that data on our service will not be accessed, used, or altered by unauthorized persons. Likewise, Clueo will not be responsible for the security of data we disclosed to third parties in the course of the Services.

Users are also advised to maintain confidentiality when it comes to their login data and who has access. Users are also encouraged to immediately notify Clueo if they notice any unauthorized access to their account.


9. INTERNATIONAL TRANSFER OF DATA

Clueo runs the Clueo App from the European Union (“ EU”) where we process your data from. If you use the Clueo App from outside of the EU, be aware that we transfer and process your data in the EU. Likewise, we may work with service providers from outside of the EU and countries different from your location. We may transfer personal data about you to such third parties to perform certain services for us in their respective locations. However, we will only transfer personal data to such third parties with adequate safeguards.

For users within the EU and countries with laws similar to the GDPR (including Brazil), we are required to transfer personal data from the EU to countries outside the EU using the approved mechanisms. We will only transfer personal data to third parties outside of the EU on the basis of the approved transfer mechanisms by the European Commission, including using standard contractual clauses where the country does not have adequate data protection laws.

To access, edit, or delete personal data about you or your account, please use the profile section of your Clueo App user account. For some reason, we may not be able to delete certain data if it goes against any applicable law (for example, where we are required to keep certain records for up to 5 years) or our legitimate interest.
