“Data controller” and “data processor” are important concepts in understanding a company's responsibilities under the GDPR. Depending on the scenario, a company may be a data controller, data processor or and can have specific responsibilities:
Data Controller
A company is a data controller when it has the responsibility of deciding why and how (the 'purposes' and 'means') the personal data is processed.
- 1Under the GDPR, data controllers have to adopt compliance measures to cover how data is collected, what it's used for and how long it's retained. They also need to make sure people can access the data about them.
- 2 Data controllers must ensure data processors meet their contractual commitments to process data safely and legally.
Data Processor
A company is a data processor when it processes personal data on behalf of a data controller. Under the GDPR, data processors have obligations to process data safely and legally.
While FaceChex is a data controller, it may have some instances where we act and or operate as a data processor.
Examples where FaceChex acts as data processor:
1. Data analytics
FaceChex processes data on an user’s behalf in order to report data that other 3rd parties keep on them as a service.
2. Collaboration by FaceChex
Collaboration allows people to find like matches to match their personal type of personal connection through facial recognition. We process personal data in order to provide this service.
