The EU General Data Protection Regulation (or the “GDPR”) requires Adventure Explorations,

LLC and those using our services to provide users with certain information about the processing

of their “Personal Data.” “Personal Data” is a term used in Europe that means, generally, data

that identifies or can identify a particular unique user or device – for instance, names, addresses,

Cookie identifiers, mobile device identifiers, precise location data and biometric data.

To comply with the GDPR, we provide the below representations and information, which are

specific to persons located in EEA countries or Switzerland (so please don’t rely on the below, if

You’re not):

a. Legal Grounds for Processing Your Personal Data

When we act as a “data controller”, the GDPR requires us to tell You about the legal basis we’re

relying on to process any Personal Data about You. The legal basis for us processing Your

Personal Data for the purposes set out in the “Types of Information We Collect and How We Use

It” section above and will typically be because:

 Legitimate Interests. In some cases, we use legitimate interest as a legal basis for processing

Personal Data. We rely on legitimate interest when we use Personal Data to maintain the

security of our services, and when we communicate with or otherwise manage our client data.

 You provided Your consent.

 Contractual Relationships. Sometimes, we process certain data as necessary under a

contractual relationship we have (such as our client records and contact information);

 Legal Obligations. Finally, some processing of data may be necessary for us to comply with our

legal or regulatory obligations.

b. Personal Data Retention

As a general matter, we retain Your Personal Data for as long as necessary to provide our

Website and services, or for other important purposes such as complying with legal obligations,

resolving disputes, and enforcing our agreements, as well as for auditing, corporate record-

keeping, compliance accounting or security and bug-prevention purposes.

c. Your Rights as a Data Subject

The GDPR provides You with certain rights in respect of Personal Data that data controllers hold

about You, including certain rights to access Personal Data, to request correction of the Personal

Data, to withdraw Your consent where we process Your Personal Data pursuant to Your

consent, to request to restrict or delete Personal Data, and to object to our processing of Your

Personal Data (including profiling for online ad targeting). To exercise those rights, You may

However, where we process Personal Data on behalf of a client (which is often the case), we

may refer the request to the relevant client and cooperate with their handling of the request,

subject to any special contractual arrangement with that client. Many of the rights described here

are subject to significant limitations and exceptions under applicable law. For example,

objections to the processing of Personal Data, and withdrawals of consent, typically will not have

retroactive effect. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.

However, we hope that You will first consult with us, so that we may work with You to resolve

any complaint or concern You might have.

If You reside in the EU, following is a more detailed overview of Your rights under GDPR, if it

applies to You.

You have the right to request:

 Access to the personal data we hold about You, free of charge in most cases.

 The correction of Your personal data when incorrect, out of date or incomplete.

 That we stop using Your personal data for direct marketing (either through specific

channels, or all channels).

 That we stop any consent-based processing of Your personal data after You withdraw

that consent.

You can contact us to request to exercise these rights at any time by emailing

privacy@forwardpmx.com:

If we choose not to take action on Your request we will explain to You the reasons for our

refusal.

Your right to withdraw consent

Whenever You have given us Your consent to use Your personal data, You have the right to

change Your mind at any time and withdraw that consent.

Where we rely on our legitimate interest

In cases where we are processing Your personal data on the basis of our legitimate interest, You

can ask us to stop for reasons connected to Your individual situation.

We must then do so unless we believe we have a legitimate overriding reason to continue

processing Your personal data.

Direct marketing

You have the right to stop the use of Your personal data for direct marketing activity through all

channels, or selected channels. We must always comply with Your request.

Checking Your identity

To protect the confidentiality of Your information, we will ask You to verify Your identity before

proceeding with any request You make under this Privacy Policy.

If You have authorised a third party to submit a request on Your behalf, we will ask them to prove

they have Your permission to act.

Contacting the Regulator – EEA UK and Switzerland Only

If You feel that Your data has not been handled correctly, or You are unhappy with our response

to any requests You have made to us regarding the use of Your personal data, You have the

right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office.

You can contact them by calling 0303 123 1113.
