6. Our Services to you: where we act as a “data processor”
This policy is in respect of our obligations to you as data “controller” of the personal information that you provide to us.
As part of our offering to our customers, we provide a platform through which you can create your own Newspage to publish information about your business or charity or yourself and for which you are responsible and remain in control. In doing so, Newspage may act as a data “processor” and our obligations in respect of that role are set out in our [Terms and Conditions]. You will remain a data “controller” of that personal data and have control over what you choose to publish and remove from your Newspage save that you acknowledge that once we have used information from your Newspage in the course of providing our service to you, that information is no longer in your control
7. Disclosures of your personal data
We will need to share your personal data with the parties set out below for the purposes set out in paragraph 4 above.
We require all third parties to respect the security of your personal data and to treat it in accordance with the law.
We do not allow our third-party service providers to use your personal data for their own purposes and only permit them to process your personal data for specified purposes and in accordance with our instructions.
8. International transfers
We do not typically need to transfer your personal data out of the UK. However, some of our third party service providers have servers or operations based outside the UK. Where they do, we ask that they have appropriate protections in place so that we know all data will be looked after as though it were subject to the UK’s laws on data protection. Should you need further details on which third party processors we use that are based outside the UK, please let us know.

We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.
To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorised use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.
