In limited circumstances, Weave Cloud Solutions may Process Personal Data as necessary for: 

  • Protecting the vital interests of the Customer Data Subject or another natural person; and/or 
  • Performing a task carried out in the public interest 

Customer Data Subjects acknowledge that the Document Content Information being transfer through the Services is under the sole discretion and control of the Communicating Parties. Weave Cloud Solutions acknowledge that the Document Content Information may contain “Special Categories” of Personal Data. Weave Cloud Solutions does not Process Customer Data Subject’s Document Content Information, whether it contains “Special Categories” of Personal Data or not, for any business purpose other than to facilitate the transfer of the Document Content Information between the Communicating Parties, unless specifically authorized by law, for example where the Customer Data Subject has given explicit consent; as necessary for carrying out obligations and exercising specific rights in the field of employment, social security, or social protection law; if compelled to do so by a court of law or lawfully requested to do so by a relevant governmental authority; and/or as necessary for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.

Recipients may include: Weave Cloud Solutions personnel; third party service providers and subcontractors performing services for Weave Cloud Solutions in the delivery of the Services. Personal Data may also be provided to the Weave Cloud Solutions Customer and their agents. 

Weave Cloud Solutions may disclose Personal Data if compelled to do so by a court of law or lawfully requested to do so by a relevant governmental authority using the appropriate means of request. Weave Cloud Solutions may disclose Personal Data if Weave Cloud Solutions determines it is necessary or appropriate to comply with the law or to protect or defend Weave Cloud Solutions’ rights, property or employees. 

Location Where Customer Data Subjects Personal Data is Processed

Weave Cloud Solutions business activities are centralized within the United States of America. This centralization may result in the transfer of Personal Data to countries outside of the EEA. For example, a Customer Data Subject’s may be transferring information with a Weave Cloud Solutions Customer within the United States. A Customer Data Subject may request to review the safeguards Weave Cloud Solutions uses for cross border transfers. 

Weave Cloud Solutions may additionally rely on other approved mechanisms for export of Personal Data from the EEA, such as a determination by the European Commission that the recipient country offers adequate protection of Personal Data or pursuant to established derogations for specific situations. Wherever Personal Data is Processed, Weave Cloud Solutions uses appropriate security measures consistent with GDPR requirements. 

Deletion of Customer Data Subjects Personal Data

First and foremost, Weave Cloud Solutions maintains a zero data retention policy for all Document Content Information communicated through the Services, whether it belongs to a Customer Data Subject or not. Upon completion of a transfer of the Document Content Information between the Communicating Parties, Weave Cloud Solutions purges the Document Content Information from its system. Certain Personal Data will be retained as needed for business administration, tax, or legal purposes and as consistent with applicable law, including GDPR, such as Electronic Communications Metadata and Device Identification Information. While Personal Data is retained, Weave Cloud Solutions implements appropriate technical and organizational measures designed to make the Personal Data collected secure. Such measures include: 

  • Maintaining and protecting the security of computer storage and network equipment and using security procedures that require usernames and passwords to access sensitive data; 
  • Applying encryption, deidentification, or other appropriate security controls to protect Personal Data when stored or transmitted; and 
  • Limiting access to Personal Data to only those with jobs requiring such access 

Customer Data Subject Rights regarding Processing of Personal Data

GDPR grants the Customer Data Subject certain rights regarding Processing of Personal Data. Weave Cloud Solutions is committed to honoring these rights and has established effective and transparent policies and procedures to do so. A Customer Data Subject’s rights with respect to his or her own Personal Data include: 

  • Right to Notice. This Notice detailing how Personal Data is Processed 
  • Right of Access. Customer Data Subject’s may obtain confirmation of whether Personal Data is being Processed and, if it is, request the Personal Data and additional information about the Processing of that data 
  • Right to Rectification. Customer Data Subjects may have inaccurate Personal Data corrected and have incomplete Personal Data made complete 
  • Right to Erasure. Customer Data Subjects may have Personal Data erased, in certain circumstances 
  • Right to Restriction of Processing. Customer Data Subjects may have additional Processing of Personal Data temporarily prohibited while the accuracy or Processing of Personal Data is contested 
  • Right to Data Portability. Customer Data Subjects may be able to receive Personal Data for the purpose of providing that Personal Data to another Controller 
  • Right to Object. A Customer Data Subject may object to Processing of Personal Data at any time and on grounds relating to his or her particular situation 
  • Right to Information Regarding Automated Individual Decision-Making. Weave Cloud Solutions Processing of Personal Data generally does not include automated decision-making that produces legal effects concerning the Customer Data Subject or similarly significantly affects the Customer Data Subject. In the event Weave Cloud Solutions implements such automated decision making, Weave Cloud Solutions will provide meaningful information about the logic involved and the significance and the envisaged consequences of such Processing for the Customer Data Subject 

Whether and how a right applies will depend upon the lawful basis pursuant to which the data is Processed, the nature of the Personal Data, and Weave Cloud Solutions’ ability to determine that it holds Personal Data of interest. As the Personal Data is processed as part of Weave Cloud Solutions’ contract obligations to the Weave Cloud Solutions Customer, for authentication purposes Weave Cloud Solutions will coordinate responses to requests of Customer Data Subjects with the Weave Cloud Solutions Customer. Weave Cloud Solutions therefore recommends the Customer Data Subject directly contact the Weave Cloud Solutions Customer to initiate a rights request. Weave Cloud Solutions will work with the Weave Cloud Solutions Customer to determine the appropriate response to a request. Provision of Personal Data in response to a Customer Data Subject’s request shall not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others.
