Data Handling & Processing
Responsible data handling is important to us. This addendum sets out how data is processed when you use CMOgpt.

1. Roles
For the purposes of applicable data protection laws, the merchant acts as the Data Controller and CMOgpt acts as the Data Processor on behalf of the merchant.
​2. Scope & Purpose of Processing
CMOgpt processes data solely to provide decision-support insights in accordance with the merchant’s documented instructions, as set out in the CMOgpt Terms of Service and through the merchant’s use of the service.

3. Data Categories
CMOgpt processes the following categories of personal data on behalf of the merchant, to the extent such data constitutes personal data:
