Simultaneously, we are a Data Processor, as we carry out personal information processing tasks, in order to accomplish our purposes. The Data Controller is responsible of controlling that the data of users is processed in a proper manner and shall take appropriate security measures to prevent unauthorized access, disclosure, modification, or unauthorized destruction of the data. In addition to the Data Controller, in some cases, the data may be accessible to certain types of persons in charge, involved with the operation of the service (developers, analysts, legal, system administration) or external parties (such as third-party technical service providers, mail carriers, hosting providers, institutions, online platforms) appointed, if necessary, as Data Processors by the owner. The updated list of these parties may be requested from the Data Controller at any time. The data processing is carried out using computers and/or IT enabled tools, following organizational procedures and modes strictly related to the purposes indicated. Currently, the Data Processors are LTS asbl itself and the online platform for developing chatbots Chatfuel (200 Labs, Inc.).
