INFORMATION WE PROCESS.
The types of information we process depends on how you use our Services. Many of our Services require users to set up an account, which involves the collection and processing of your name and email address. Other Services may require the collection of additional information. For example, Dribbble helps to connect its community of designers with people and companies in need of their skills. In order to do so, Dribbble collects payments data and other information required to comply with relevant legal obligations.
The following table explains the types of information we collect and how we collect it. These categories of data may collectively be referred to as “Your Information”.

Certain users may also post freelance projects and other job opportunities. |

The Dribbble Group will not collect additional categories of personal information or use the personal information we collected for materially different, unrelated, or incompatible purposes unless we first notify you or obtain your consent, to the extent required by Data Protection Law.
Sensitive Personal Data
Data Protection Law recognises that certain types of information require additional protection. In particular, the GDPR prohibits the processing of sensitive personal data, other than in certain exceptional circumstances. Sensitive personal data in the EU includes information relating to one’s race or ethnicity, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, membership of a trade union, as well as biometric data and data relating to one’s health or sexual orientation. Certain state laws in the US also have different definitions of sensitive personal data.
We do not knowingly collect or process any sensitive personal data. However, some users may make such information public through their use of our Services. For example, Dribbble permits users to add a biography to their profile. This is a free-text section that allows users to include whatever information they wish, subject to complying with the relevant Terms of Service. Users are in control of what information they share and, to the extent they choose to make sensitive personal data public, they may delete or amend this information at any time.
HOW WE PROCESS YOUR INFORMATION AND OUR LEGAL BASES FOR DOING SO
We collect and process Your Information whenever you use our Services. Consistent with relevant Data Protection Law, we are required to identify a legal basis for each of our processing activities.
Under EU law there are six different bases, which may be relied upon to enable the lawful processing of Your Information. In particular, data controllers may process personal data:
- where they have received freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous consent from a data subject (“Consent”);
- where processing is necessary to conclude and perform a contract (“Contractual Necessity”);
- where processing is necessary to comply with a legal obligation to which they are subject (“Legal Obligation”); or
- in pursuit of the data controller’s legitimate interests, except where these interests are overridden by the rights and freedoms of individuals (“Legitimate Interests”).
Under the CCPA, we must disclose the purposes for which we collect your information:
- Business Purposes, which include auditing, security, debugging/repair, certain short-term uses, performing services, internal research for technical development, quality and safety maintenance and verification, as well as the use of Your Information for our operational purposes, or other notified purposes that use Your Information as reasonably necessary and proportionate to achieve the operational purpose; and
- Commercial Purposes, which include use of Your Information to advance our commercial or economic interests, such as encouraging others to buy, rent, lease, join, subscribe to, provide, or exchange products, goods, property, information, or services, or enabling or effecting, directly or indirectly, a commercial transaction.
The Group Companies primarily rely on Consent, Contractual Necessity, Legal Obligation and Legitimate Interests when processing Your Information. Below we explain the purposes for which we process this information, along with the relevant categories of data we use and the legal basis we rely on to do so (for purposes of the GDPR) or other permitted reasons for processing (e.g. Business Purposes or Commercial Purposes under the CCPA).

For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your personal information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information.

DATA SECURITY AND DATA BREACH
We care about the integrity and security of Your Information and implement appropriate technical and organisational security measures to safeguard Your Information from unlawful or unauthorised destruction, loss, change, disclosure, acquisition or access.
Our Group Companies follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal data provided to us, both during transmission and after it is received. Examples of our security measures include, as appropriate, physical measures such as locking access to servers, putting in place IT measures such as encryption, and restricting access to your information through approvals and passwords, so it is accessible only on a “need to know” basis.
Depending on the Group Company and the Service in question, your account information is protected by a password. You are responsible for carefully choosing and periodically changing an appropriately-strong password and for maintaining its secrecy. You are also responsible for controlling access to your email communications from our Group Companies, and for other security measures, such as signing out after using our Services.
Despite these measures, it is not possible to warrant the security of any information you transmit to our Group Companies or guarantee that your information on our Services may not be accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed by a breach of any of our technical or organisational safeguards. Your privacy settings may also be affected by changes to the functionality of our Group Companies’ distributors, such as social networks. We are not responsible for the functionality or security measures of any third party.
DATA RETENTION
We will keep personal data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes for which that personal data are processed, including to provide our Services. The storage periods are determined on a case-by-case basis and will depend on several factors, including:
- The type of information and the purpose for which it is processed;
- Any legal requirement to retain the data, including where data was processed on the basis of a Legal Obligation or until the Statute of Limitations has elapsed with respect to possible legal claims or investigations;
- Whether the data is required for Trust & Safety purposes. For example, where users breach our Terms of Service, we may terminate their account and prevent them from accessing our Services, in order to protect other users. In such circumstances, it may be necessary to retain certain personal data, even after account termination.
Following termination or deactivation of your User account, we may retain the Information You Provide for a commercially reasonable time for backup, archival, contract performance and enforcement, or audit purposes but for no longer than is necessary and only where the information is accurate and relevant for our use. Furthermore, we may retain and continue to use indefinitely all information contained in your communications to other Users or posted to public or semi-public areas of the Service after termination or deactivation of your User account. However, we will only keep this information on the Services where it was posted and will not use this information for any other purpose.
