PASSR PRIVACY POLICY

Last updated: June 2026 Version: 1.0


1. Introduction and Data Controller Identity

This Privacy Policy explains how Passr (“Passr”, “we”, “us”, “our”), operated by Hisako Technologies OÜ, collects, uses, stores, and protects your personal data when you use our website at passr.eu and our platform at app.passr.eu (collectively, the “Service”).

We take your privacy seriously. This policy is written in plain language so you understand exactly what happens to your data.

Data Controller: Hisako Technologies OÜ Operating as: Passr Website: passr.eu Contact: privacy@passr.eu

EU Representative: As a company providing services to EU residents, we are in the process of establishing our Estonian OÜ legal entity to serve as our EU legal representative. Until that registration is complete, you may contact us directly at privacy@passr.eu for any privacy-related matters. We will respond within 72 hours.

2.8 Website Analytics

We use Plausible Analytics, a privacy-first analytics tool, on passr.eu. Plausible does not use cookies, does not track individuals across sites, and does not collect personal data. It records only aggregate statistics such as page views and referrer sources. No consent is required for Plausible under GDPR because it does not process personal data.

We use Posthog (EU Cloud) for product analytics within the app.passr.eu application. Posthog may collect:

  • Feature usage events (which parts of the application you use)
  • Session information (not recording)
  • Browser and device type

Posthog analytics within the app are subject to your consent choice during onboarding.


3. How We Use Your Data

We use your data only for the following purposes:

  • Providing the Service: Processing your product compliance data, generating Digital Product Passports, providing the dashboard and all platform features
  • Account management: Creating and maintaining your account, managing team access, processing subscription changes
  • Communications: Sending transactional emails (compliance alerts, certificate expiry warnings, invoice receipts, account notifications). We do not send marketing emails without your explicit consent.
  • Security: Detecting and preventing fraud, unauthorized access, and abuse
  • Legal compliance: Meeting our obligations under GDPR, tax law, and applicable regulations
  • Service improvement: Understanding how the platform is used in aggregate (never individual profiling) to improve features

What we do not do:

  • We do not sell your data to any third party
  • We do not use your compliance data to train AI models
  • We do not share your data with competitors
  • We do not use your data for advertising purposes
  • We do not build profiles on individual consumers who scan passports

4. Who We Share Your Data With

We share your data only with the third-party service providers necessary to operate the platform. These are our sub-processors:

Supabase Inc.Database, authentication, file storageEU (Frankfurt, Germany)All platform dataView Policy
Vercel Inc.Hosting and content deliveryEU region (when configured)Request logs, application code executionView Policy

We require all sub-processors to:

  • Process data only for the specific purpose we have engaged them for
  • Maintain appropriate technical and organisational security measures
  • Comply with GDPR requirements
  • Not sub-process data without our written authorisation

We will notify you at least 30 days before adding any new sub-processor that processes your personal data.

For transfers of personal data outside the European Economic Area (EEA), we rely on Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission under GDPR Article 46(2)(c).


5. Data Security

We implement the following technical and organisational measures to protect your data:

Technical measures:

  • All data transmitted between your browser and our servers is encrypted using TLS 1.3
  • All data stored in our database is encrypted at rest using AES-256 encryption
  • Database row-level security ensures that each brand can only access its own data — even a bug in our application code cannot expose one brand’s data to another
  • Authentication uses short-lived JSON Web Tokens (1-hour expiry) stored in httpOnly cookies, which cannot be accessed by JavaScript and are protected against cross-site scripting attacks
  • File uploads (lab reports, certificates) are stored with UUID-based paths and signed URLs that expire — files are not publicly guessable
  • All API endpoints require authentication. Rate limiting is applied to prevent brute-force attacks.

Organisational measures:

  • Access to production data is restricted to essential personnel only
  • We follow a minimum-necessary-access principle for all internal systems
  • We maintain an incident response procedure (see Section 9)

No security measure is 100% effective. If you believe your account has been compromised, contact us immediately at privacy@passr.eu.


6. Your Rights Under GDPR

If you are in the European Economic Area, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:

Right to Erasure (Article 17) You have the right to request deletion of your personal data. You can delete your account from Settings → Brand Profile → Delete Account. This will permanently delete all your data from our systems within 30 days. Note: we may retain certain data where we have a legal obligation to do so (for example, invoice records for 7 years under tax law).

Right to Restriction of Processing (Article 18) You have the right to request that we limit how we process your data in certain circumstances, for example if you contest the accuracy of the data while we verify it.

Right to Data Portability (Article 20) You have the right to receive your data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. You can download your complete data archive at any time from Settings → Data & Export → Download Full Legal Archive.

Right to Object (Article 21) You have the right to object to processing based on legitimate interests. If you object, we will stop processing unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests.

Right to Withdraw Consent (Article 7) Where we process data based on your consent (such as analytics cookies or marketing emails), you can withdraw that consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.

How to exercise your rights: Email privacy@passr.eu with the subject line “GDPR Request — [Right you are exercising]”. We will respond within 30 days. We may ask you to verify your identity before processing the request.

Right to lodge a complaint: If you are unhappy with how we handle your data, you have the right to lodge a complaint with your national data protection authority. In the EU, you can find your national authority at: edpb.europa.eu/about-edpb/about-edpb/members_en
