    We maintain a detailed incident response plan to promptly detect, investigate, and mitigate the impact of any security breach.

  8. Employee Training.

    We provide regular cybersecurity and data protection training to all staff to ensure they follow best practices for handling and securing personal data.

  9. NDA.

    We require that all employees, contractors, and third-party service providers sign Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs) before accessing any personal data.

However, despite these safeguards and efforts to secure your data, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee that hackers, cybercriminals, or other unauthorized third parties will not be able to defeat our security measures and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your data. While we will do our utmost to protect your personal data, any transmission of personal data to and from our Services is at your own risk. You should only access our Services within a secure environment.

Notification to the data protection authority: In the event of a data breach, we are required to notify the data protection authority within 72 hours of becoming aware of the breach. The notification will include the following details:

  • A description of the nature of the data breach;
  • Contact information for the individual responsible for providing further information;
  • An assessment of the potential consequences of the data breach;
  • The measures that have been taken or are proposed to mitigate the breach and its impact.

Notification to You: If the data breach poses a high risk to your rights and freedoms, we will notify you without undue delay. The notification will contain:

  • A clear, straightforward explanation of the nature of the data breach;

11. DO WE COLLECT DATA FROM MINORS?

We do not knowingly collect, solicit, or process personal data from children under 18 years of age, nor do we knowingly sell such personal data. In compliance with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) for US residents, we take additional precautions to ensure that personal data from children under the age of 13 is not collected, as COPPA imposes specific requirements for handling children's data.

For users in the European Union (EU) and the United Kingdom (UK), we comply with local regulations which stipulate that individuals under the age of 16 must have parental consent to use our Services. By using the Services, you represent that you are at least 16 years old, or that you are the parent or guardian of a minor dependent aged 16 or younger and consent to their use of the Services.

If we learn that personal data from users under the age of 18 has been collected without proper authorization or parental consent, we will immediately deactivate the account and take reasonable measures to delete such data from our records in accordance with applicable laws. For users in the EU and UK, if we become aware that we have inadvertently collected personal data from children under the age of 16 without parental consent, we will take steps to delete such data as required by GDPR and other relevant regulations.

If you become aware of any personal data we may have collected from children under 18 years of age, or under 13 without parental consent, or under 16 in the EU or UK without parental consent, please contact us immediately at privacy@glise.io, and we will promptly investigate and address the issue.

Opting out of marketing and promotional communications: You can unsubscribe from our marketing and promotional communications at any time by clicking on the unsubscribe link in the emails that we send, replying “STOP“ or “UNSUBSCRIBE“ to the SMS messages that we send, or by contacting us using the details provided in the section “HOW CAN YOU CONTACT US ABOUT THIS NOTICE?“ below.

However, we may still communicate with you — for example, to send you service-related messages that are necessary for the administration and use of your account, to respond to service requests, or for other non-marketing purposes.

Account Data

If you would at any time like to review or change the information in your account or terminate your account, you can:

Data Subjects Access Request (DSAR) Management

We are committed to ensuring that individuals can exercise their rights under applicable data protection laws, including the right to access their personal data. If you wish to submit a Data Subject Access Request (DSAR) to obtain information about the personal data we hold about you, or to request its rectification, erasure, or transfer, you may do so by contacting us at the details provided in the section “HOW CAN YOU CONTACT US ABOUT THIS NOTICE?“ below.

To ensure the integrity and security of your data, we may require you to verify your identity before responding to your request. In some cases, we may also request additional information to better understand the nature of your request and facilitate our response.

We will acknowledge your DSAR within 30 calendar days and aim to respond to your request within the legally required timeframe. However, if your request is complex or involves a large volume of data, we may extend the response time by an additional 30 calendar days, in accordance with applicable laws. In such cases, we will notify you of the extension and provide reasons for the delay.

Please note that certain requests may be subject to legal exceptions, and we may be unable to fulfill your request in certain circumstances, such as when fulfilling the request would infringe on the rights of others or conflict with legal obligations. In these instances, we will provide a clear explanation of the reasons for our inability to comply with your request.

For more information on how we handle Data Subject Access Requests, or if you have any concerns about the processing of your personal data, you can reach out to us using the contact information provided below.
