As Wingie GmbH, we have released an updated version of our Privacy Policy which came into effect on May 25th, 2018. Our new policy is more user-friendly and addresses new data regulations including GDPR. The most significant changes in the new policy are explained below:

1. Better navigation and user-friendly language. We reformatted our privacy policy page with related links, so any user can easily find the information. Clear languages and examples with new policy pages make the policy easier to understand.
2. More control over your information. Wingie has made it easier to control the information our customers provide to us. This policy explains how you make choices about your information.

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a regulation in EU law on data protection and privacy for all individuals within the European Union, which addresses the export of personal data outside the EU. GDPR is effective as of May 25th, 2018. It replaces national privacy and security law that previously existed within the EU with a single, comprehensive EU-wide law that governs the use sharing, transfer and processing of any personal data that originates from the EU.
Wingie’s policy is to respect all laws that are related to our business, which includes GDPR.

Here are a few things Wingie is committed to doing to ensure our compliance with GDPR:
Where we are transferring data outside of the EU, Wingie commits to having the appropriate data transfer mechanisms in place as required by GDPR.
Wingie commits to follow appropriate security measures and precautions in accordance with GDPR. 
Wingie will assist with notifying regulators of breaches and promptly communicate any breaches to customers and users. 
We will ensure that employees authorized to process personal data have committed to confidentiality. 
We will hold any sub-processors that handle personal data, including our data center partners, to the same data management, security and privacy practices and standards to which we hold ourselves. 
Wingie commits to carrying out data impact assessments and consulting with EU regulators where a data impact assessment indicates a high risk associated with processing without an appropriate mitigating strategy.
Where appropriate, we will offer contractual language documenting our commitments to our customers to support their GDPR obligations.
Wingie will assist our customers, insofar as possible, to respond to data subject requests our customers may receive under the GDPR. 

Yes. We process personal data to improve our services as outlined in our Privacy Policy.
