GDPR Compliance Statement
At DarkWebReport.io, we are committed to ensuring the protection and security of personal data in accordance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). This document outlines our approach to GDPR compliance and the measures we have implemented to protect the privacy rights of individuals in the European Union.
Data Controller and Data Processor Roles
DarkWebReport.io operates as both a data controller and a data processor:
- As a Data Controller: We determine the purposes and means of processing personal data collected directly from our customers (MSPs) during account registration, customer support interactions, and marketing activities.
- As a Data Processor: We process personal data on behalf of our MSP customers when they upload their clients’ data for dark web monitoring and threat intelligence services.

We process personal data under the following lawful bases as defined by GDPR:
- Contract: Processing necessary for the performance of our contract with MSPs to provide dark web monitoring services.
- Legitimate Interests: Processing necessary for our legitimate interests, such as improving our services, ensuring network security, and preventing fraud.
- Consent: Processing based on specific, informed, and unambiguous consent for certain activities such as marketing communications.
- Legal Obligation: Processing necessary to comply with our legal obligations.
Data Subject Rights
We respect and uphold the rights of data subjects under GDPR, including:
- The right to be informed about how we use their personal data

Data Protection Impact Assessments
We conduct Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs) when implementing new technologies or processing activities that are likely to result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of individuals.
International Data Transfers
When transferring personal data outside the European Economic Area (EEA), we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place through mechanisms such as:
- Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission

Data Breach Notification
In the event of a personal data breach, we have procedures in place to:

- Document all breaches, including the facts, effects, and remedial actions taken
Data Protection Officer
We have appointed a Data Protection Officer (DPO) to oversee our compliance with GDPR. The DPO serves as a point of contact for data subjects and supervisory authorities on all matters related to the processing of personal data.
