Lawful Basis for Processing (GDPR Art. 6)
Where the General Data Protection Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2016/679 / UK GDPR) applies to our processing, we rely on the following lawful bases under Article 6:
- Contract performance (Art. 6(1)(b)): to provide the Gamyata service you have signed up for: account creation, scan execution, report delivery, billing, customer support.
- Legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f)): for service security (abuse detection, rate-limiting, fraud prevention), product reliability (aggregated error logs with PII scrubbed), and informing you of material product changes. We balance these against your rights and you can object at any time.
- Consent (Art. 6(1)(a)): for optional analytics cookies (PostHog), marketing communications, and any future data uses we introduce that go beyond service delivery. You can withdraw consent at any time without affecting prior processing.
- Legal obligation (Art. 6(1)(c)): to comply with tax, anti-money-laundering, accounting, and lawful government requests.
We do not rely on Art. 6(1)(d) (vital interests) or 6(1)(e) (public interest / official authority). We do not process special categories of personal data (Art. 9) intentionally; if such data appears incidentally in a scanned page's content the Controller (you) is responsible for the lawful basis of submission under our Data Processing Agreement.

We engage the following sub-processors to deliver Gamyata. The full list with processing purposes and regions, plus the Data Processing Agreement template, is published at /dpa: Logto (auth, EU), Amazon Web Services (compute/storage, ap-south-1 + eu-west-1), Razorpay (payments, India), Anthropic (LLM inference, US, zero-retention), OpenAI (LLM inference, US, zero-retention), Sentry (error monitoring with PII scrubbed at ingest, EU), and PostHog (product analytics, opt-in only, EU).
We give 30 days' prior notice before introducing or replacing a sub-processor and you have the right to object on reasonable data-protection grounds.

California Consumer Rights (CCPA / CPRA)
If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (collectively the “CCPA”) gives you the following rights with respect to the personal information we collect about you:
- Right to Know. You can ask us what categories of personal information we collect, the sources, the business or commercial purpose, the categories of third parties with whom we share it, and the specific pieces of personal information we hold about you.
- Right to Delete. You can ask us to delete personal information we have collected from you, subject to legally permitted exceptions (security, legal compliance, completing a transaction you requested).
- Right to Correct. You can ask us to correct inaccurate personal information we maintain about you.
- Right to Opt-Out of Sale or Sharing. Under the CCPA we do not sell personal information for monetary or other valuable consideration, and we do not share personal information for cross-context behavioural advertising. We also honour the Global Privacy Control (GPC) browser signal and treat
Sec-GPC: 1as an opt-out request. - Right to Limit Use of Sensitive Personal Information. We do not use sensitive personal information beyond what is necessary to provide the service.
- Right to Non-Discrimination. We will not deny service, charge different prices, or provide a different level or quality of service because you exercised any of these rights.
To exercise any of these rights, contact privacy@gamyata.com with the subject line “CCPA Request”. We will verify your request before responding (normally by confirming control of the email address on the account) and respond within 45 days as required by CCPA §1798.130. You may also designate an authorised agent to make a request on your behalf in accordance with §1798.135(c).
