Legal Basis for Processing
The laws in some jurisdictions require companies to tell you about the legal grounds that allow them to use or disclose your personal data. Where those laws apply, our legal grounds are:
- Legitimate interests: We often handle personal data because it furthers the legitimate interests of DblCheck.org (or of our customers, affiliates, business partners, or suppliers) in business activities such as the ones listed below, and because that handling of data does not unduly impact your interests, rights, and freedoms:
- Facilitating free speech, artistic expression, and journalism.
- Providing customer service.
- Some of our marketing and advertising activities.
- Analyzing and improving business activities.
- Protecting business activities, individuals, and property (for example, protecting against abuse of our Services).
- Managing risks and legal issues.
- To honor our contractual commitments to the individual: Some of our handling of personal data is necessary to meet our contractual obligations to individuals, or to take steps at the person’s request because we are planning to enter into a contract with them.
- Consent:
- If the law requires consent, and in some other cases, we handle personal data on the basis of consent.
- If the law allows, we may be able to infer consent from the circumstances.
- Legal compliance: We sometimes need to use and disclose personal data to comply with our legal obligations.
- Legal claims: Sometimes we use or disclose personal data because it is necessary to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.
Security
Dblcheck.org takes physical, technical and administrative measures to help protect information about you from loss, theft, misuse and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration and destruction. However, no security measure is perfect. DblCheck.org cannot and does not promise that any information will remain secure.
Data Retention
We store the information we collect about you for as long as is necessary for the purpose(s) outlined in this Privacy Policy, unless the law requires us to keep it for a longer period of time. Information in copies made for backup and business continuity may remain for longer than the original data.
Data Transfers
To provide the Services, we may transfer your information to servers operated by DblCheck.org or our service providers or affiliates in the United States or other countries. When we transfer information from the European Economic Area (“EEA”) or UK to countries that the European Commission has not deemed to provide an adequate level of protection, we normally do so on the basis of either (i) Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission for such purpose or (ii) the recipient’s participation in the EU- U.S. Privacy Shield Framework (described below). You may request a copy of the Standard Contractual Clauses by contacting us as described below.
In compliance with the Privacy Shield Principles, we are committed to resolving complaints about our processing of your personal data. Covered individuals in Europe with inquiries or complaints regarding our compliance with the Privacy Shield program should first contact us. The Privacy Shield services of JAMS are provided at no cost to you. Unlike some other rights described in this Privacy Policy, the JAMS mechanism is available only to individuals whose personal data we receive pursuant to Privacy Shield.
Our Services allow our users to transfer Creator Personal Data (such as by publishing it), and our users (not DblCheck.org) are responsible for their transfers.
Your Choices
Privacy Requests Regarding Users’ Photos and Some Related Data
For privacy-related takedown requests, or to exercise any rights you may have under privacy law regarding images that a DblCheck.org user uploaded to or created in the Services, or any labels, tags, comments, descriptions or categorizations that the same user added to those images in the Services (Creator Personal Data), please contact that user directly. DblCheck.org processes this data on behalf of the user, and the user has responsibility for handling these requests. DblCheck.org still can remove illegal content and other material that users are not entitled to maintain on the Service, such as nonconsensual intimate images.
DblCheck.org users can follow the instructions below to handle privacy requests or to otherwise manage their Creator Personal Data.
Deleting Photos
You can delete individual photos that you have on DblCheck.org by selecting the photos that you wish to delete, then clicking the delete button. Or you can delete groups of photos using batch operations.
Photo Sharing Features
Everyone can see your original picture, user name, date, time and geo-position once the picture with the QR code is shared.
Account Information
You may update, correct or delete certain information about you at any time by logging into your online account. You may delete your account or terminate your subscription pursuant to DblCheck.org Terms of Use, but note that we may retain certain information as required by law or for legitimate business purposes.
Privacy and Permissions Settings
The information public to everyone will be determined in your profile information and linked with the QR codes of the picture you share.
Location Information
When you first launch any of our mobile applications that collect location information, you will be asked to consent to the application’s collection of this information.
Because of the nature of our purpose which is fully transparency, DblCheck.org will not allow to take pictures if you don’t consent DblCheck.org to access to your location services.
Cookies
Please see the “Advertising and Analytics Services Provided by Others” section above for options for controlling cookies and similar technology.

Email Notifications
Visit account setting to set on or off the email communications.
Other Data Protection Rights
The law of your jurisdiction may give you additional rights to make certain requests with respect to your personal data. This is the case, for example, for residents of the European Economic Area and Switzerland, and, as described further below, residents of California. Our preference is to treat requests from all users in a similar way, regardless of where they live, to the extent we find this practicable and legally feasible. So although we describe the rights that exist under certain specific laws and frameworks below, we are happy to receive such requests from users in different jurisdictions as well.
As a reminder, regardless of where you live, all requests to exercise privacy rights with respect to Creator Personal Data should be addressed to the user who uploaded that content, not DblCheck.org.
Under the Privacy Shield and laws like the GDPR, some individuals have a legal right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of certain personal data we store. In some cases, they are entitled to receive a copy of the personal data they provided to us in portable form or to request that we share it with a third party. The law also gives them the right to request certain restrictions on the use of their personal data, to object to our use of their personal data, or, where applicable, to withdraw their consent to use of their personal data (which will not affect the legality of any processing that happened before your request takes effect).
People who live in the UK or elsewhere in the European Economic Area (and certain other people) have additional rights to opt out of our use of personal data for direct marketing. They can exercise their rights to opt out, or to object to other processing, by contacting us as described below.
Every individual has the right to lodge a complaint with the data privacy authority where they reside.
Individuals and data protection supervisory authorities in the EU and the UK may contact our data protection representatives according to Articles 27 EU and UK GDPR:
