On May 25, 2018, the European Union began enforcing the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), in an effort to strengthen the security and protection of the personal data of EU residents.<\/p>\n
In 2020, the EU invalidated the EU-US PrivacyShield as a means of providing the \u2018Appropriate Safeguards\u2019 that are prescribed by the GDPR.<\/p>\n
Kami is committed to protecting the security and privacy of entrusted data as well as helping our customers comply with regulations such as the GDPR. Kami product capabilities, design paradigms, and processes help your company be GDPR compliant.<\/p>\n
We have recently updated our Privacy Policy to reflect the latest international changes.<\/p>\n
Schools and organizations using Kami, you are likely a data controller under the GDPR. This is the case if you supply goods or services to EU residents – or if you track or monitor EU residents and decide why and how data is collected and processed. One of your requirements as a data controller is to only work with compliant data processors.<\/p>\n
Data processors are vendors or businesses that process data on behalf of data controllers. Kami is considered a data processor. We comply with the GDPR when acting as a data processor on your behalf.<\/p>\n
We take this responsibility seriously. Here are measures Kami is committed to as one of your data processors:<\/p>\n
If you collect data about EU residents, you are likely considered a data controller under the GDPR. One of the biggest challenges you will face as a controller will be managing individuals\u2019 requests to exercise their rights as defined by the regulation.<\/p>\n
With regards to the additional rights defined in the GDPR, Kami enables you to comply in case EU residents exercise the following rights:<\/p>\n
Any activities that are carried out via Kami will be saved to your user\u2019s own cloud or device storage. Data that might reflect an individual’s engagement data (annotations, comments) is synced back to Kami servers.<\/p>\n
The GDPR also empowers individuals to correct any personal data that is deemed inaccurate or incomplete. When you update data in Kami App, Kami’s data will automatically be updated if applicable.<\/p>\n
Kami allows you to honor requests to delete an individual’s data. You can facilitate Kami’s erasure tool in order to find an individual’s data stored in Kami and have it destroyed.
\nIf you have any questions about the GDPR or want to learn how Kami can help you be compliant, please contact privacy@kamiapp.com<\/p>\n
