Personal Information

Data protection laws and privacy laws in certain jurisdictions, like the European Economic Area (EEA), differentiate between “controllers” and “processors” of personal information. A controller decides why and how to process personal information. A processor processes personal information on behalf of a controller based on the controller’s instructions. When Testfuse processes your Customer Account Data, the Testfuse entity with whom you are contracting is acting as a controller. When we process the information on your behalf (employee and candidate data), you are the controller and Testfuse is the processor. Broadly speaking, we use Customer Account Data to further our legitimate interests to:

Understand who our customers and potential customers are and their interests in Testfuse's product and services,

Manage our relationship with you and other customers,

Carry out core business operations such as accounting, filing taxes, and fulfilling regulatory obligations and

Help detect, prevent, or investigate security incidents, fraud and other abuse and/or misuse of our products and services.
