Our EEA or Switzerland based customers, who control their customer data and send it to LakeB2BConnect for processing, are the “controllers” of that data and are responsible for compliance with GDPR. In particular, LakeB2BConnect ’s customers are responsible for complying with the regulation and relevant data protection legislation in the relevant EEA member state before sending personal information to LakeB2BConnect for processing. We work with our customers to help them provide notice to their customers concerning the purpose for which personal information is collected.

We may enter agreements with our customers located in the EEA to provide them access to our Service(s), which includes the processing of information relating the End-Customers.
We do not own, control or direct the use of the information stored or processed on our platform, and in fact we are largely unaware of what information is being stored on our platform and only access such information as reasonably necessary to provide the Service(s) (including to respond to support requests), as otherwise authorized by our customers or as required by law.
