In the context of the GDPR Data Processing Agreement (DPA) outlined by Ghost Foundation, several key points about data collection and usage, as well as your rights as a user, are highlighted:

Under GDPR and related data protection laws, you have several rights concerning your personal data:

These rights ensure that you have significant control over your personal data in relation to the services provided by Ghost Foundation. If you wish to exercise any of these rights, typically, you would need to contact Ghost Foundation directly through the provided channels, often specified in their privacy policy or the terms of the DPA.
