14. NOTICE AND SCOPE OF SAFE HARBOR CERTIFICATION

BRAINDOK, Inc., ("BRAINDOK") adheres to the Safe Harbor Privacy Principles published by the U.S. Department of Commerce (“Safe Harbor Principles”) with respect to personal data relating to residents in the European Economic Area and Switzerland (“EEA/CH Data”) that we receive in the United States from our subsidiaries, enterprise customers, consumer customers, distributors, suppliers and other business partners in Europe. In this notice, we explain how we collect and use EEA/CH Data except data relating to employees of our subsidiaries (which is covered by a separate notice that we distribute to such employees). Additional information on the Safe Harbor Principles and BRAINDOK’s scope of participation is available at http://www.export.gov/safeharbor.

15. CATEGORIES OF EEA/CH DATA

BRAINDOK develops application software and delivers solutions for mobile business infrastructure and retail customers. We receive mostly business-related information from Europe, but also contact information related to individual representatives of customers, distributors, resellers, suppliers, and other business partners (including, without limitation, names, job titles, addresses, work phone numbers, work email addresses, etc.) in connection with commercial and corporate transactions and other business relationships. Some of our customers are not incorporated and may provide their home address when they acquire software licenses from our authorized online store or when they register their products and service subscriptions with us. BRAINDOK is in process of setting whistleblower plan and later may receive and process EEA/CH Customer Data in connection with its whistleblower hotline including details of the reporter, the data subject of the report, the alleged misconduct, investigation, and any misuse of the whistleblower hotline program.

16. PURPOSES

BRAINDOK plans to collect and use EEA/CH Data for purposes of managing, improving, expanding and communicating regarding software license sales, supply, distribution and customer relationships, delivering software, services and related information (including, without limitation, promotional information on new products), managing its whistleblower hotline program, and conducting related tasks for legitimate business purposes and corporate development opportunities.

17. TRANSFER

BRAINDOK plan to share EEA/CH Data with corporate affiliates. We may also make EEA/CH Data available to service providers and other contractors, which process EEA/CH Data on our behalf and subject to confidentiality restrictions. We may also share EEA/CH Data with other third parties for the purposes for which we receive the data (e.g., performance of contractual obligations) and as required or permitted by law.

18. CHOICES

Recipients of marketing e-mails in Europe may opt-out of receiving further e-mail marketing communications from BRAINDOK by sending an unsubscribing request at info@braindok.com or by following opt-out instructions that are contained in each marketing e-mail. Requests to opt-out of transfers to third parties will also be considered, but limitations on data sharing may make it difficult or impossible for BRAINDOK to provide certain requested services. BRAINDOK may also have to disclose EEA/CH Customer Data where it is legally required to disclose (e.g., under statutes, contracts or otherwise) or the disclosure is permitted by law and BRAINDOK has a legitimate business interest in such disclosure.

19. ACCESS AND REVIEW

Residents of the EEA and Switzerland whose EEA/CH Data BRAINDOK controls may request access to, and the opportunity to correct, amend, or delete that information where it is inaccurate. To submit such requests or raise any other questions, please contact the BRAINDOK Safe Harbor Contact as described below. BRAINDOK reserves the right to take appropriate steps to authenticate an applicant’s identity, charge an adequate fee before providing access and deny requests, except as required by the Safe Harbor Principles.
