NitroPay and GDPR

GG Software and NitroPay are committed to compliance with the GDPR. We also wish to assist our customers with their own GDPR compliance by providing simple steps for ensuring proper compliance with NitroPay SDKs.

The EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) was enacted on May 25, 2018, and will bolster the rights of European end users with regards to their personal data. The new legislation will also unify data protection laws across Europe, regardless of where the data is being processed.

NitroPay as a Processor

As defined by the GDPR, “a controller is the entity that determines the purposes, conditions and means of the processing of personal data, while the processor is an entity which processes personal data on behalf of the controller.”

Processing According to Instructions

Any data that a customer and its users put into our systems will only be processed in accordance with the customer’s instructions, as described in our GDPR-updated Terms of Service.

Deletion and Return of Data

As per the GDPR, end users of the controller’s services may request a deletion or return of their data. When NitroPay receives a data return request from the controller, NitroPay will produce an export of the relevant information as indicated by Controller’s request within a maximum period of 10 business days. If a complete deletion request is communicated from you, NitroPay will delete the relevant customer data from all of its systems within a maximum period of 20 business days unless retention obligations apply.

Security of NitroPay Services

According to the GDPR, controllers and processors shall implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure a level of security appropriate for the risk profile of the data.
