Questions people ask about Tines Security Services

Where is Tines Security Services's DPA?

Tines Security Services publishes its customer data processing agreement at https://www.tines.com/dpa/.

Is Tines Security Services's DPA the same thing as a data processing addendum?

Yes. A data processing agreement and a data processing addendum are two names for the document Article 28 of the GDPR requires between a controller and a processor; vendors use both, and some call it processor terms. What it has to contain does not change with the name. Tines Security Services's is at https://www.tines.com/dpa/.

Where is Tines Security Services's sub-processor list?

Tines Security Services publishes the list of its own sub-processors at https://www.tines.com/sub-processors/.

Which legal entity does Tines Security Services contract through?

Tines Security Services Limited, registered in Ireland. That is the name to put in a record of processing or a sub-processor list, not the brand.

What covers a transfer of personal data to Tines Security Services outside the EEA?

Not applicable. No personal data transfer outside the EEA applies to this vendor's service. Whether that is enough for a particular processing operation is a judgement for the controller.

Where is Tines Security Services's trust center?

Tines Security Services publishes it at https://trust.tines.com/. A trust center, trust page or security page is the same thing under different names: the vendor's own account of how it protects data, and the place it keeps its certifications. It is Tines Security Services's page, so we link to it rather than repeat what it says.
