Data Controller and Data Processor

Lansare Corporation’s business customers are the data controllers for most of the information that is entered into custom web applications hosted by Lansare Corporation. Lansare employees may access this data periodically in order to deliver support or services. This positions Lansare Corporation as the data processor for most information stored and processed by Lansare Corporation. There are some pieces of information that are collected directly by Lansare Corporation to facilitate security, logging, and application performance. These items include IP address and behavior within Lansare’s virtual data center environment. For these pieces of information, Lansare Corporation acts as the data controller and processor. Additionally, Lansare Corporation employs a variety of technologies and partners that periodically act as sub-processors (detailed list below). If users have any questions or concerns about the processing and handling of their personal information, they may reach out to Lansare Corporation directly by email at businessadmin@lansare.com.
