Employees with ongoing access to such data will sign acknowledgment reminders annually attesting to their understanding of this company requirement.

Cooperation with processors and third parties
If, in the course of our processing, we disclose data to other persons and companies (order processors or third parties), transmit it to them or otherwise grant them access to the data, this will only be done on the basis of a legal permission (e.g., if a transmission of the data to third parties, such as to payment service providers, is necessary for the performance of the contract pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR), you have consented, a legal obligation provides for this or on the basis of our legitimate interests (e.g., when using agents, web hosts, etc.). If we commission third parties to process data on the basis of a so-called “processing agreement”, this is done on the basis of Art. 28 GDPR.

Gravity Forms
We use the WordPress plugin Gravity Forms to create and manage forms. The developer of this plugin is Rocket Genius, In, but as far as we can tell, they do not access the data you enter into the form. You can find out more about how this works here: https://www.gravityforms.com/features/.
