Such companies will be permitted to obtain only the personal information they need to deliver the service.

Notice to International Residents: The Dynamic History Salem Sites are primarily operated and managed on servers located and operated within the United States. By contacting Dynamic History Salem or submitting information through the Dynamic History Salem Sites, you may be sending your personal information outside of the country where you reside or are located, including to the United States. Accordingly, if you reside or are located outside of the United States, your personal information may be transferred outside of the country where you reside or are located, including to countries that may not or do not provide the same level of protection for your personal information. We are committed to protecting the privacy and confidentiality of personal information when it is transferred.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION FOR USERS IN THE EUROPEAN ECONOMIC AREA AND UNITED KINGDOM: If you are located in the EEA, the UK, or Switzerland, you have certain rights and protections under applicable law regarding the processing of your Personal Information, as defined by the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), and this section applies to you. Dynamic History Salem is aware of the July 16, 2020 ruling by the European Court of Justice invalidating the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework. Accordingly, Dynamic History Salem will take adequate measures designed to protect the transfer of Personal Information of individuals in the European Economic Area (EU Member States, Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway) (“EEA”), such as relying on the European Commission-approved Standard Contractual Clauses (“SCCs”) as a legal mechanism for such transfer, or other adequate transfer mechanism as required under relevant data protection laws, as well as additional safeguards, where appropriate. A copy of these clauses may be obtained by contacting us at the email address listed below. For transfers to or from the United Kingdom (“UK”), we make use of the SCCs, as adapted for the UK.  For individuals located in the EEA or the UK, the term “Personal Information,” as used in this section, is equivalent to “personal data” under applicable European and UK data protection legislation.

When we process your Personal Information, we will do so in reliance on the following lawful bases:

  • To perform our responsibilities under any contract with you (e.g., providing services).
  • When we have a legitimate interest in processing your Personal Information to operate our business or protect our interests (e.g., to provide, maintain, and improve our services, conduct data analytics, and communicate with you).
  • To comply with our legal obligations (e.g., to maintain a record of your consents and track those who have opted out of non-administrative communications).
  • When we have your consent to do so (e.g., when you opt in to receive non-administrative communications from us). When consent is the legal basis for our processing your Personal Information, you may withdraw such consent at any time.

For users in the European Union, according to the GDPR, you have the following statutory rights:

  • At the point where Personal Information is collected from the data subject, as defined by the GDPR, or obtained from another source, there is a requirement to inform the data subject about Dynamic History Salem’s use of that Personal Information and the rights of data subjects over it. Compliance with this right is provided within this Privacy Policy.
  • You have the right to obtain confirmation as to whether or not Personal Information concerning you is being processed, and, where that is the case, all necessary information to make the process transparent. You also have the right to obtain a copy of your Personal Information being processed.
  • You have the right to require rectification of inaccurate data about you.
  • You have the right to ask for the deletion of your data in certain circumstances.
  • You have the right to restrict processing of data under certain specified circumstances.
  • You have the right to request for the receipt or the transfer to another organization, in a machine-readable form, of your Personal Information.
  • You have the right to ask us to stop using all or some of your Personal Information under certain specified circumstances.
  • When you have given your explicit consent for the processing of your data, you can withdraw it at any time without justification. The withdrawal of consent will not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.

If would like to exercise your rights, please let us know by contacting dynamichistorysalem@gmail.com. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local Data Protection Authority or to the Data Protection Authority where the alleged infringement took place.
