Squadcast Subprocessors

User Consent

By using our website, submitting or making available information through our Website or Services as described below, you agree to the Terms of Service posted by us on https://squadcast.com/terms and the terms of this Privacy Policy and you expressly consent to the processing of your data in accordance with this Privacy Policy. In connection with providing Services, Squadcast acts as a data processor, not a data controller. This means that Squadcast follows your instructions as to how to use your PII. While we primarily process your data on servers located in the United States, your data may also be processed in the country in which it was collected and in other countries if necessary to do so as part of the Services. The laws in such other countries regarding the use and processing of data may be more or less stringent than the laws in the United States or your country. For example, when an alarm trigger set by you occurs, the Services will automatically retrieve the Contact Information supplied by you and use the method(s) you established to contact the applicable Contact Person. This will require telephoning or sending an email or SMS message or using other means to contact such Contact Person wherever they are located, which may not be the United States or your home country. Of necessity this means PII will be transmitted in or through the networks, servers, telephone system and so forth in the country where the Contact Person is located. You consent, and hereby authorize and assume responsibility, for Squadcast to use your data in this manner as part of offering the Services.
