Data controller

For the purposes of the GDPR, SellCodeApp acts as the data controller for personal data collected through our platform. This means we determine the purposes and means by which your personal data is processed.

Where sellers collect personal data from their buyers through the platform (e.g., for support purposes), they may act as an independent data controller or processor. Sellers are responsible for ensuring their own GDPR compliance in such cases.


02

Lawful basis for processing

We only process your personal data where we have a valid lawful basis under Article 6 of the GDPR:

05

International data transfers

SellCodeApp may transfer your personal data to countries outside the EEA. Where such transfers occur, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, including:

  • Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission
  • Transfers only to countries with an adequacy decision by the European Commission
  • Data Processing Agreements (DPAs) with all third-party processors

You may request a copy of the safeguards in place by contacting [email protected].


06

Third-party processors

We share personal data with trusted third-party processors bound by Data Processing Agreements. Key categories include:

  • Payment processors — to handle transactions securely (e.g., Stripe, PayPal)
  • Cloud hosting providers — to store and serve platform data
  • Email delivery services — to send transactional and marketing emails
  • Analytics providers — to help us understand platform usage
  • Fraud prevention services — to detect and prevent abuse

We do not sell your personal data to any third party.

  • Rectification (Article 16): Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data.
  • Erasure (Article 17): Request deletion of your personal data where there is no overriding legitimate reason to continue processing it.

08

Data breach notification

In the event of a personal data breach, SellCodeApp will:

  • Notify the relevant supervisory authority within 72 hours of becoming aware of the breach, where required
  • Notify affected individuals without undue delay where the breach is likely to result in a high risk to their rights
  • Document all breaches internally, including those that do not require external notification
