What it is

The policy distinguishes between Miro's role as a data controller for account, registration, and usage data, and its role as a data processor for content uploaded by enterprise customers to boards, with the latter governed by the Customer Data Processing Addendum.

ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

This provision establishes two distinct legal frameworks governing different categories of data, requiring enterprise customers to manage compliance obligations under both the privacy policy (for controller-level data) and the DPA (for processor-level board content).

Interpretive note: The precise language defining the controller/processor boundary was not available in the truncated document; this provision reflects Miro's known dual-role structure as described in its published legal framework.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)
