This provision establishes Skillshare's GDPR and UK GDPR compliance disclosure for EU and EEA and UK users, identifying the contact mechanism for exercising data subject rights; the phrase 'aims to take reasonable steps' is qualified language that does not unequivocally commit to specific statutory response timelines, which may warrant review against GDPR Article 12 requirements.
Interpretive note: The policy's qualified language regarding GDPR compliance obligations and the absence of a named EU representative or DPO in the available text creates interpretive uncertainty about whether all GDPR Article 27 and 37 requirements are met.
Under this provision, EU and UK users may request access to, correction of, deletion of, or restriction on processing of their personal data by emailing privacy@skillshare.com, in accordance with GDPR and UK GDPR rights. The policy's use of 'aims to take reasonable steps' is qualified language; GDPR Article 12 establishes specific one-month response timelines as a statutory requirement independent of this policy language.

1. REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: This provision directly engages GDPR and UK GDPR, enforced by EU member state supervisory authorities and the UK Information Commissioner's Office. GDPR Article 12 requires responses to data subject requests within one month, extendable by two months for complex requests with notice; Article 17 governs the right to erasure; Article 20 governs data portability. 2. GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. The policy's use of qualified language ('aims to take reasonable steps') rather than an unqualified commitment to fulfill data subject rights within statutory timelines may create tension with GDPR's mandatory response obligations. Compliance teams should confirm that operational SLAs align with GDPR Article 12 timelines regardless of this policy language. 3. JURISDICTION FLAGS: EU member state supervisory authorities and the UK ICO have independent enforcement authority over Skillshare's processing of EU and UK resident data. Post-Brexit, the UK IDTA or equivalent transfer mechanisms are required for data flows between the UK and third countries. 4. CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Data processing agreements with all processors handling EU and UK resident data must comply with GDPR Article 28 requirements. The policy does not identify a Data Protection Officer or EU representative, which may be required under GDPR Article 27 depending on Skillshare's volume of EU data subject processing. 5. COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Legal teams should confirm whether Skillshare has designated an EU representative under GDPR Article 27 and whether a Data Protection Officer has been appointed or assessed as not required. International data transfer mechanisms for EU and UK data should be documented. The policy should be assessed to confirm that all GDPR-required lawful bases are identified for each processing purpose.
