Under the terms of each contract, Logicworks is obligated to process the data only in accordance with instructions from each Customer and to provide an appropriate level of security for the data.Thus, Logicworks is not required to apply the safe harbor principles to this information because the Data Controller in the European Union remains responsible for it vis-à-vis each respective individual in accordance with the relevant EU provisions (which may be more stringent than the equivalent Safe Harbor principles).
Since Logicworks is a service provider acting as a Data Processor to its Customers (i.e., by providing network, security and hardware infrastructure), this Privacy Policy does not cover Customer transactions or obligations within their networks. Logicworks does not have the authority to access or use the Personal Information in these systems.
