GDPR Compliance

1. Our Commitment to GDPR

WP Manta is committed to complying with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the European Union’s comprehensive data protection law. This page outlines how we handle personal data of individuals in the European Economic Area (EEA) and the rights you have under GDPR.

2. Data Controller Information

WP Manta acts as the data controller for personal data collected through our website and services. This means we determine the purposes and means of processing your personal data.

3. Legal Basis for Processing

Under GDPR, we process personal data based on one or more of the following legal bases:

  • Consent: You have given clear consent for us to process your personal data for specific purposes
  • Contract: Processing is necessary for the performance of a contract with you
  • Legal Obligation: Processing is necessary to comply with legal requirements
  • Legitimate Interests: Processing is necessary for our legitimate interests, provided your rights don’t override those interests

We will respond to your request within 30 days. In some cases, we may need to verify your identity before processing your request.

6. International Data Transfers

As WP Manta is based in the United States, your personal data may be transferred to and processed in countries outside the EEA. When we transfer data internationally, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, including Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission.

7. Data Protection Measures

We implement comprehensive security measures to protect your data:

  • Encryption of data in transit and at rest

  • Employee training on data protection
  • Incident response procedures
  • Data minimization practices

8. Data Breach Notification

In the event of a personal data breach that poses a risk to your rights and freedoms, we will notify the relevant supervisory authority within 72 hours of becoming aware of the breach. If the breach is likely to result in a high risk to your rights, we will also notify you directly.

9. Data Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by law. When data is no longer needed, it is securely deleted or anonymized.

10. Supervisory Authority

If you are not satisfied with how we handle your data or respond to your request, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority in your country of residence, place of work, or where the alleged infringement occurred.
