If this Privacy Policy conflicts with the Privacy Shield Principles, the Privacy Shield Principles will prevail. For more information about the Privacy Shield program, as well as a copy of our certification, please click here.
Accountability for onward transfers. Under the Privacy Shield Principles, CleanersList is responsible for Personal Information it receives from EU residents, which is subsequently transferred to a third party processor. Particularly, CleanersList will remain responsible and liable if Third Party Agents that process Personal Information on its behalf violate the Privacy Shield Principles, unless CleanersList can establish that it was not responsible for the occurrence that resulted in the damage.
Right of access. If you would like a copy of the Personal Information that we hold about you, you have a legal right to request it. The Privacy Shield Principles provide that you have the right to correct, amend or delete any inaccurate or unlawfully collected Personal Information.
Resolution of disputes and complaint mechanism. According to the Privacy Shield Principles, CleanersList commits to resolve complaints regarding the privacy of your personal information and the collection or use of that information. We encourage European Union citizens who have any questions or concerns regarding the processing of their Personal Information under the Privacy Shield framework to contact us directly by sending an email to: [email protected] or by writing to CleanersList Privacy, 1001 Office Park Rd #215, West Des Moines, IA 50265, United States.
Any complaints that cannot be resolved through CleanersList directly will be handled by JAMS. You may contact JAMS for further information and assistance if you are dissatisfied with the resolution of your complaint. Using these recourse mechanisms is free of charge.
Binding arbitration. CleanersList’s Privacy Shield certification is backed by a binding arbitration option, which is further explained in the Privacy Shield Principles.
Enforcement. It is important to note that CleanersList is subject to the investigative and enforcement powers of the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).
Disclosure of EU personal data to public authorities and law enforcement agencies. In response to lawful requests by public authorities, CleanersList may be required to disclose your Personal Information.
