When you install the prototype and use it on our website:

The plug-in stores all your data locally within your browser, so you are the “controller” for your personal data when using this software.

The plug-in is a first prototype, so it does not come with any guarantees, but by design it stores all your data locally within your browser, and does not report any data back to us or any other party. Upon installation your browser may warn that the plug-in will get e.g. access your browsing data and history. This is because the plug-in monitors every web page to see if it requests consent through the ADPC mechanism. If you respond to consent requests, the plug-in stores your choice and allows you to change or delete it. In order to provide you with the option to only show a pop-up if you have visited a website multiple times, the plug-in needs access to your browsing history to count the visits.

When you give a permission to dataprotectioncontrol.org via ADPC we do not actually use your personal data, but just alter the test page to give you an idea how different types of advertisement may be shown to a user depending on the ADPC signals sent to the website.

The ADPC newsletter is provided by noyb, who acts as a controller. Further information can be found in the section “(3) Additional Processing when you sign up to noyb newsletters” in the privacy policy of noyb.
