Clearly — Regional Privacy Notices (Quick Reference)

Version 1.0 (draft for counsel review) — [DATE]

Clearly is run from Switzerland, stores your data in the EU (Ireland), and is used worldwide. Our Privacy Policy applies to everyone; this page tells you, per region, which extra rights you have and who to talk to. Two things are true wherever you are:

  • You can always email [privacy@clearly.app] for access, correction, deletion, or a copy of your data. We answer within 30 days or faster if your law requires it, and we never penalize you for asking.
  • If your data was in a meeting run by an agency using Clearly, that agency is responsible for it (we process it on their behalf) — contact them first; we'll support their answer.

Switzerland

  • Law: Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP).
  • Rights: access, correction, deletion, data portability.
  • Complain to: the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC), Bern — edoeb.admin.ch.
  • Contact: [privacy@clearly.app]. Recording consent has special weight in Switzerland (Art. 179ter Criminal Code) — see the Meeting Participant Notice.

EU / EEA

  • Law: GDPR.
  • Rights: access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, objection (Art. 15–21); complaint to your local supervisory authority (Art. 77).
  • Our EU representative (Art. 27): [NAME, ADDRESS, EMAIL — to be appointed before EU launch]. You may address them instead of us.
  • Your data at rest stays in the EU (Ireland); transfers to US providers are protected by the EU–U.S. Data Privacy Framework or EU Standard Contractual Clauses (Privacy Policy §3).

United Kingdom

  • Law: UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.
  • Rights: same as the EU list above; complaints go to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) — ico.org.uk.
  • Our UK representative (Art. 27 UK GDPR): [NAME, ADDRESS, EMAIL — to be appointed before UK launch].
  • Transfers rely on the UK Addendum / IDTA and the UK–US Data Bridge.

United States — California

  • Law: CCPA as amended by the CPRA.
  • Rights: know/access, delete, correct, portability, opt out of sale/sharing, limit use of sensitive personal information, non-discrimination.
  • The short version of our posture: we do not sell your personal information, we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising, we use no advertising trackers, and we honor Global Privacy Control. Details: Privacy Policy §7.4.
  • How to exercise: email [privacy@clearly.app] or use the in-product deletion controls. An authorized agent can act for you with proof of authorization.

United States — other states

Residents of Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, and other states with comprehensive privacy laws get the same treatment as Californians: access, deletion, correction, portability, opt-out of targeted advertising (we do none), and an appeal if we decline a request — reply to our decision email and we will re-review with someone who wasn't involved the first time.

Recording consent: several US states require all-party consent to record or transcribe a conversation. Clearly's required practice — announce and get a yes from everyone — covers them all; see the Meeting Participant Notice §2.

Rest of the world

We extend the core rights — access, correction, deletion, portability — to every user, regardless of local law, via [privacy@clearly.app]. Where your local law grants you more, it prevails. Your stored data lives in the EU (Ireland) with the safeguards described in the Privacy Policy.

Draft prepared for review by qualified counsel (Swiss lead; local counsel per region); placeholders ([...]) must be completed before publication.
