Dotgo Data Processors

Sub-processors are third-party businesses engaged by a processor for performing data processing on behalf of a controller. According to the GDPR, these companies are also accountable for protection of an individual’s personal data. Data protection obligations of sub-processors are to be established by way of contract or other legal acts under the Union or Member State law. This includes providing sufficient guarantees to implement appropriate technical and organizational measures as specified in the regulation.

DOTGO uses sub-processors (listed below), to assist in providing services as described in our “Terms of Service” and “Privacy Policy” or a similar services agreement customers may have signed with us.

DOTGO partners with organizations that, like itself, adhere to global standards and regulations. Apart from evaluation for technical requirements, DOTGO ensures examination of data protection measures, compliance with DOTGO security requirements, and security audit reports before close of contract. Initial agreements include review and approval of – provision for breach notification in the event of unwarranted data incidents, and necessary security measures for data protection.
