ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

This clause determines the controlling authority when Heap's stated privacy practices diverge from the Data Privacy Framework Principles, meaning the Principles set the effective floor for data handling regardless of what the Privacy Policy says.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Where the Heap Privacy Policy and the Data Privacy Framework Principles conflict, users' rights and protections are determined by the Principles, not the Privacy Policy.
