SUPPLEMENTARY POLICY FOR USERS RESIDING IN THE EUROPEAN UNION:

This Policy supplements our Privacy Policy and applies to individuals residing in the European Union, outlining the rights applicable to you under GDPR. 

1. RIGHTS UNDER GDPR:  

1.1 Right to Access:  Each Data Subject has the right to obtain, at any time, free information from Forage regarding the personal data stored about them, as well as a copy of this information. In addition, Data Subjects are entitled to the following information:

• The purposes of the processing;
• The categories of personal data concerned;
• The recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data have been or will be disclosed, particularly recipients in third countries or international organizations;
• The envisaged period for which the personal data will be stored, or, if not possible, the criteria used to determine that period;
• The existence of the right to request the rectification, erasure, or restriction of processing of personal data, or to object to such processing;
• The right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority in accordance with Article 77 of GDPR; 
• Where the personal data was not collected from the Data Subject, any available information as to its source;
• The existence of automated decision-making, including profiling, as defined in Article 22(1) and (4) of the GDPR, and at least in such cases, meaningful information about the logic involved, as well as the significance and envisaged consequences of such processing for the Data Subject;
• Information on whether personal data is transferred to a third country or an international organization, and where applicable, details of the appropriate safeguards. 

1.2 Right of Confirmation:
Each Data Subject has the right, as granted by the European legislator, to obtain from the Controller confirmation as to whether or not their personal data is being processed. Should a Data Subject wish to exercise this right of confirmation, they may contact Forage. 

1.3 Right to Rectification:
Each Data Subject has the right to obtain, without undue delay, the rectification of inaccurate personal data concerning them. Furthermore, the Data Subject may complete any incomplete personal data, including by providing a supplementary statement, if necessary. 

1.4 Right to Erasure (Right to be Forgotten):
Each Data Subject has the right to request the erasure of personal data concerning them without undue delay, where one of the following grounds applies, unless the processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation or for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims:

• The personal da ta is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or processed;
• The Data Subject withdraws consent, and there is no other legal basis for processing;
• The Data Subject objects to processing and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for processing;
• The personal data has been unlawfully processed;
• The personal data must be erased to comply with a legal obligation under Union or Member State law;
• The personal data was collected in relation to the offer of information society services to children.

Where applicable, and if a Data Subject requests the erasure of personal data, Forage will take immediate steps to ensure compliance, including communicating the erasure request to other controllers where necessary. 

1.5 Right to Restriction of Processing:
Each Data Subject has the right to obtain restriction of processing where one of the following applies:

• The accuracy of the personal data is contested, for a period enabling Forage to verify the accuracy of the personal data;
• The processing is unlawful, and the Data Subject opposes the erasure of personal data and requests instead the restriction of its use;
• Forage AI no longer needs the personal data for processing purposes, but it is required by the Data Subject for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims;
• The Data Subject has objected to processing, pending verification as to whether the legitimate grounds of Forage override those of the Data Subject.

1.6 Right to Data Portability:
Each Data Subject has the right to receive the personal data concerning them, which was provided to Forage, in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format. The Data Subject also has the right to transmit these data to another Controller without hindrance. This right applies when processing is based on consent or contract and is carried out by automated means.

Data Subjects are entitled to request the direct transmission of their personal data to another Controller where technically feasible, provided such transmission does not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others. To exercise the right to data portability, Data Subjects may contact Forage at the contact details provided herein. 

1.7 Right to Object:
Each Data Subject has the right to object, on grounds relating to their particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning them, where processing is based on legitimate interests or public tasks. This right also applies to profiling based on these legal grounds.

If personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, the Data Subject has the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data for such marketing, including profiling related to such marketing. In such cases, Forage will immediately cease processing the personal data for these purposes.

Furthermore, Data Subjects have the right to object to processing for scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes, unless the processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out for reasons of public interest.

1.8 Automated Individual Decision-Making, Including Profiling:
We may use automated tools for sending personalized emails to Data Subject as well as responding to emails and the Data Subject consents to the use of such automated tools. Each Data Subject has the right not to be subject to decisions based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which significantly affects them, unless:

• The decision is necessary for entering into or performing a contract between the Data Subject and Forage AI;
• The decision is authorized by Union or Member State law, which includes appropriate safeguards for the Data Subject’s rights;
• The decision is based on the explicit consent of the Data Subject.

Where such decisions are based on consent, Forage will ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, including the right to obtain human intervention, express the Data Subject’s point of view, and contest the decision.
