  • Where use of your information is necessary to comply with a legal obligation
  • Where we have your consent to process data in a certain way

Exercising Your Rights

We will need to verify your identity and may need to verify your relationship with Zoomph (for example, if you’re an administrator of an Zoomph account and you’re making a request on behalf of another individual) for security and to prevent fraud. 

We may take additional steps to verify that you are authorized to make the request. If you are an end user of Zoomph’s services and not a direct customer of Zoomph (for example, your company uses Zoomph and you’re an employee or authorized representative of that company), you should direct requests relating to your information to the administrator of your company’s Zoomph account. We will redirect you to your administrator or notify the administrator directly. To exercise your privacy rights, please email us at support@zoomph.com 

Please note, however, that certain information may be exempt from such requests in some circumstances, which may include if we need to keep processing your information for our legitimate interests or to comply with a legal obligation.
