Privacy Policy
Ragan is a service provider to our customers and the data in our systems is owned by our customers. This means our customers have jurisdiction over the data and any end-user data subject request should be submitted directly to the customer. Customer’s[DS1]  users may access, correct, and delete some information within the platforms. In compliance with global data protection laws, Ragan provides its customers with specific additional rights such as the right to access, correct, and delete as described below:

  • request access to categories and specific pieces of personal information about you
  • request that we correct inaccurate or incomplete personal information about you;
  • request deletion of personal information about you;
  • request restrictions, temporarily or permanently, on our processing of some or all personal information about you;
  • request transfer of personal information to you or a third party where we process the data based on your consent or a contract with you, and where our processing is automated; and
  • opt-out or object to our use of your personal information in which either:
    • our use is based on your consent or our legitimate interests, or
    • you do not want us to share with third parties.

 

If you are a Ragan customer, you may exercise your rights by contacting [email protected]. All requests will be addressed within the timeframe required based on the applicable regulation. If the collection of your personal data was based on your consent, you have the right to revoke that consent at any time. Be aware that by revoking consent, you may lose access to Services you previously opted to use. If you are not a Ragan customer and rather a user of our services through an account you have with a Ragan customer, please contact that customer directly.
