4.3 Data Processing
For Customer personal data you enter or connect to the Platform (including names, phone numbers, emails, preferences, and related records), you are the data controller and ACTIV is the data processor acting on your documented instructions. We process that data to provide the Platform (including receipts, inventory, messaging, and matching features) and as described in our Privacy Policy.
- You must have a lawful basis (including consent where required) before collecting or uploading Customer data, and you must tell Customers that Activ helps you process it.
- You must not forward listings, messages, or files that contain third-party personal data you are not entitled to process (for example landlord names, other agents' contacts, or previous-owner details). Redact such data before upload. You remain responsible for personal data you send to Activ.
