Data Processing Agreement.
In force from 17 September 2026
The short version
Where an account holder's content includes other people's personal data, the Operator processes it only on their instructions and only to run the service. It is kept confidential and secure, and a breach is reported without undue delay.
The authorised sub-processors are on the sub-processors page. For a countersigned copy, email legal@billboardbadger.com.
This summary is here to be read. The clauses below are what actually binds.This DPA applies where the Operator, Dale Mooney, a sole trader based in the United Kingdom, trading as Billboard Badger (Processor), processes personal data for an account holder (Controller) to provide the service. It supplements the Terms of Service and prevails on data protection matters.
1. Subject, duration and purpose
Providing the service, for as long as the account is open plus the retention in section 5: reading product sites, drafting, storing and publishing content.
2. Data and people
Personal data that appears in product sites, drafts, artwork or uploads, and the Controller's own account details.
3. The Processor's obligations
- Process only on documented instructions, use of the service being that instruction.
- Keep it confidential.
- Apply the measures on the security page.
- Use only the sub-processors listed, on terms no less protective, remaining responsible for them.
- Help with data subject requests, security and impact assessments.
- Notify a personal data breach without undue delay.
4. Sub-processors
Listed on the sub-processors page, with notice before one is added so the Controller may object.
5. Deletion
On closing the account, data leaves live systems at once and backups within 30 days, confirmed in writing on request.
6. Transfers, audit and law
Transfers outside the UK use an appropriate mechanism such as the UK IDTA. Reasonable audit requests are answered once a year. Liability follows the Terms; the laws of England and Wales apply.
Ask, and the wording gets fixed rather than explained.
