For Users’ Personal data, as outlined in the “Collection of Users’ Personal data” section, the Client will be the Controller in accordance with GDPR, and Cultr will be the Processor. Cultr adheres to the GDPR from May 25th, 2018. Consequently, Cultr processes all data provided by its Clients with accounts in its European Data Region, in the European Economic Area (EEA) only.
