This Policy explains how Stablemate uses cookies and other tracking technologies to operate the service and how you can manage or disable certain types of tracking.

The EU-U.S. and Swiss-U.S. Data Privacy Framework Policy for Stablemate (“Stablemate,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) reflects our commitment to the transatlantic data protection frameworks (collectively, the “Frameworks”). Stablemate adheres to the applicable Principles, including Supplemental Principles: additional binding obligations under the Frameworks, for personal data received from entities in the European Economic Area (“EEA”) and Switzerland.
This Policy works in conjunction with our broader Privacy Policy to explain how we handle personal data from the EEA and Switzerland under these frameworks. Terms defined in the Privacy Policy also apply here.
If there is any conflict between this Policy and the governing Principles regarding personal data received under the Frameworks, the Principles will prevail to the extent of that conflict. To learn more, visit the official Data Privacy Framework website.
Principles: NoticeOur Privacy Policy outlines how we collect and use personal data from various sources. This Policy focuses specifically on data governed by the Frameworks. If you are a Stablemate member, we may act on your behalf regarding personal data you provide to us. In most cases, we do not have a direct relationship with your customers. The member is responsible for ensuring that those customers are appropriately informed and given a choice regarding their personal data.
Choice:As a data controller, and when required by applicable law, Stablemate provides individuals in the EU and Switzerland with the option to choose whether their personal data may be disclosed to third-party controllers or used in a way that is materially different from its original purpose. Where required, we obtain opt-in consent for sensitive data. Individuals may contact us using the information below to manage how their data is used or shared. Unless such a choice is clearly offered, Stablemate uses data only for purposes consistent with this Policy.
Data Integrity and Purpose Limitation:We collect only the personal data necessary to provide our services. We use it in ways compatible with those services or as otherwise explained. We take reasonable steps to ensure that the data we receive is accurate, complete, up to date, and relevant to its intended use.
Accountability for Onward Transfers:This Policy and our general Privacy Policy explain how we share personal data. Unless required by law or covered under our controller or processor roles, Stablemate gives individuals the option to opt out of sharing data with third-party controllers. Third parties we work with are contractually required to handle personal data only for approved purposes and to maintain protections aligned with the Frameworks. If a third-party controller cannot meet these requirements, they must inform us and take appropriate action.
If you have questions or concerns, please write to us or email us using the contact information below. We will investigate and try to resolve any complaints regarding how we use or disclose personal data under the Frameworks. If we cannot resolve the issue, you may contact JAMS, an independent U.S. dispute resolution provider, free of charge. We will cooperate with EU data protection authorities and the Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner. Binding arbitration may be available for unresolved issues as described in Annex I of the Frameworks. Stablemate is subject to the investigatory and enforcement authority of the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”).

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) applies to members of our websites or mobile applications who reside in the European Union (EU) or the European Economic Area (EEA), which includes the EU, Iceland, Liechtenstein, and Norway. This law sets out a framework of rights governing how personal data is collected, processed, transferred, and protected. Steady Flow, LLC, doing business as Stablemate (“Stablemate,” “we,” “us”), is committed to taking reasonable steps to protect your personal data and ensure ongoing compliance with GDPR requirements. We take privacy seriously and are constantly improving how we protect member data in accordance with these regulations.
We follow the GDPR’s seven core principles and implement additional safeguards to protect member data while providing a safe, intelligent, and community-driven platform.
GDPR’s Seven Key Principles:These principles are at the core of our approach to processing and protecting personal data.
Legal BasisUnder the GDPR, Stablemate must establish a legal basis for collecting personal data from EU and EEA residents. The legal basis varies depending on the context in which we collect and use data. Our processing activities typically fall into one or more of the following categories:
Personal data you provide may be transferred and stored outside the EU or EEA, such as in the United States. This may occur when our systems or personnel operate outside the EEA. Your information is stored on secure servers managed by us or trusted service providers. We take necessary steps to ensure the secure handling of your data across jurisdictions. Where required, transfers rely on recognized safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses or participation in the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework. If these conditions change, we will inform members accordingly.
Data RetentionWe retain personal data only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in our privacy policies and to comply with legal obligations. Even if you exercise privacy rights, we may retain certain data for legal, research, or public interest purposes, or to establish or defend legal claims.
Your RightsAs a Stablemate member in the EU or EEA, you are entitled to the following rights under the GDPR:
Some rights may be subject to exceptions. For assistance, contact us at support@stablemate.app. We respond to verified requests within GDPR timelines.
Stablemate maintains tailored privacy notices for specific member groups:
We have strengthened technical and organizational controls in the following areas:
Data Subject RightsWe revised policies and member-facing pages to explain clearly how personal data is collected, processed, and shared. With member consent and respect for privacy, we share personal data only with GDPR-compliant service providers and sub-processors necessary to deliver our services.
Sub-processor Service and HeadquartersStablemate honors data access, portability, and deletion requests. Members can request access to, correction of, or deletion of their personal data, and may export it in a machine-readable format.
Data Protection by Design and DefaultPrivacy is embedded into new features from the start. We track where and how personal data is processed to ensure visibility and member control. We process only the personal data necessary to operate the platform. After the purpose ends, data is deleted or pseudonymized.
Data MinimizationWe collect only the data necessary for specific processing activities and remove it when no longer required.
Security of ProcessingWe implement layered security, access controls, monitoring tools, audit trails, and role-based authorizations to safeguard data and minimize exposure.
Data MappingWe conduct ongoing data mapping to understand data flow and processor responsibilities, and to ensure all sub-processors comply with GDPR standards.
How to Submit a Data Subject RequestWe are developing tools for members to submit Data Subject Rights requests online. For now, members may contact us directly or update their personal information through their Stablemate account. Requests for access, correction, or deletion will be honored promptly and within GDPR timelines.
Data BreachIn the event of a personal data breach, Stablemate will notify the relevant supervisory authority without undue delay and, where feasible, within 72 hours. When a breach is likely to result in a high risk to individuals, we will notify affected members without undue delay.
Questions about this GDPR Notice may be sent to support@stablemate.app. Include your full name, email address, and inquiry. A qualified team member will respond promptly and professionally.

To help deliver its Services, Stablemate may engage third-party service providers to support data processing activities. When these providers assist us in our role as a data processor, they are referred to as sub-processors (“Sub-processors”).
This report identifies each Sub-processor, the services they provide, and their primary processing location. Before engaging a Sub-processor, we conduct due diligence, including security and legal evaluations. We partner only with providers that meet our professional standards. All Sub-processors are bound by contracts that require compliance with applicable data protection laws, recognized transfer mechanisms, and Stablemate’s privacy commitments.
Current Sub-processors – Services and HeadquartersOur operational needs may change over time. For example, we may remove a Sub-processor to streamline operations, or add a new provider to improve our services. This page will be updated to reflect changes in our Sub-processor list, and members will be notified at least 30 days before a new Sub-processor that handles personal data is added.
If you have a question about this Sub-Processor Report, please include your full name, primary email, and your inquiry. Once submitted, a qualified team member will respond promptly.

ARBITRATIONStablemate and members agree that any and all disputes or claims shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration, rather than in court.

Arbitration claims are those that Stablemate asserts against a member and that a member asserts against Stablemate, any related or affiliated entity, and the owners, officers, directors, agents, or employees of any of them. The Federal Arbitration Act shall govern the interpretation and enforcement of this agreement to arbitrate. If for any reason the FAA is inapplicable, the laws of New York shall apply. To the extent permitted by law, the Parties agree to arbitrate claims on an individual basis only and waive any right to bring, participate in, or recover under, a class, collective, consolidated, or representative action. The arbitrator shall apply the Terms and the same substantive law to the dispute as a court would and under the same law of remedies. To begin an arbitration proceeding against Stablemate or a related party, the member must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing the claim to Stablemate at:
Steady Flow, LLC
Attn: Legal Division
7014 13th Ave, Suite #202,
Brooklyn, NY, 11228
The arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under the rules applicable to the claim asserted, including, but not limited to, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes. The AAA’s rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. Stablemate will supply a printed copy of the rules upon a member’s request. Payment and reimbursement of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA’s rules. New York, New York is the sole proper venue for arbitration; provided, however, that the arbitrator once selected shall have the authority to order the parties to arbitrate in a different venue for good cause shown, applying federal law for transferring venue on grounds of forum non conveniens. If, notwithstanding this arbitration agreement, a claim for any reason proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, the dispute shall be exclusively brought and heard in a court of competent jurisdiction located in the City and County of New York, New York. Except as otherwise provided by law or the AAA’s rules, the prevailing party in any arbitration will be entitled to receive from the non-prevailing party all of its reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs.
NOTIFICATIONSMembers agree that Stablemate may provide notifications to members via e-mail, written or hard copy notice, or through conspicuous posting of such notice on its Services. Members may opt out of certain means of notifications or to only receive certain notifications.
ENGLISH LANGUAGEIn the event of a conflict between the English language version of the Terms and any foreign language translation versions thereof, the English language version of the Terms shall govern and control. All disputes, claims, causes of action, and related proceedings will be communicated in English. Unless otherwise explicitly stated, all material found on the Services are solely directed to individuals, companies, or other entities located in the United States.
ENTIRE AGREEMENT/SEVERABILITYThe Terms encompass the entire agreement between members and Stablemate. If any provision of these Terms is deemed invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the invalidity of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect. Stablemate’s failure to assert any right or provision under this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

Thank you for reviewing this policy and welcome to Stablemate. It is the policy of Steady Flow LLC, doing business as Stablemate (“Stablemate,” “we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Services”), to foster a safe, smart, and socially respectful environment for our entire member community (“members” or “you”). This mobile application is built to support skills exchange in a secure setting. We are committed to proactive measures that reduce the risk of violence and manage situations that could lead to harm. All members must cooperate with this policy and comply fully with its guidelines. This policy is regularly updated and enforced to support member safety and community wellbeing. By using the Services, you agree to and accept the terms outlined herein.
SCOPEProhibited Conduct: Stablemate does not tolerate violence, threats of violence, unlawful fighting, child abuse, child neglect, or stalking on any private or public property, establishments of any kind, premises, or in any Stablemate activity or program. All unlawful activity such as the use, participation, distribution, or sale or resale of illegal goods, illegal drugs, or weapons is prohibited on the Stablemate mobile application and Services.
DEFINITIONSAny individual who experiences or observes a threat or act of violence, or a weapon, must immediately notify local law enforcement (call 911 in the U.S.). Stablemate also encourages members to seek support from trusted contacts or community resources.
Stablemate will handle reports confidentially, disclosing information only when appropriate. Members must promptly report violations or suspected violations of this policy to us. In emergencies, call local authorities first.
RETALIATIONThis policy prohibits retaliation against anyone who reports a violation in good faith. Stablemate will not tolerate intentional false reporting. A complaint made in good faith that results in “no violation” is not a false report. False or malicious allegations may result in disciplinary action, including account suspension.
INVESTIGATIONS AND OUTCOMESMatters that violate state or federal law, or repeated member violations, may be referred to law enforcement.
CONFIDENTIAL RESOURCESWithin the Stablemate mobile application, some licensed professionals may offer counseling services. These professionals are independent contractors and not agents of Stablemate. Counseling is confidential, voluntary, and intended for personal benefit. Talking to these professionals does not constitute reporting to Stablemate. Members seeking such services should contact providers directly through the app or other channels.

Thank you for reviewing this policy and welcome to Stablemate. It is the initiative of Steady Flow LLC, doing business as Stablemate (“Stablemate,” “us,” “we,” “our,” “Services”), to provide our member community (collectively, “you,” “yours,” “people,” “members”) a safe, smart, social, skills exchange mobile application for all members. Stablemate promotes measures aimed at reducing incidents of harassment and the management of situations that may lead to violence. All members of the Stablemate community shall cooperate to maintain a safe, smart, social service and shall comply with this policy. This policy is routinely updated and enforced for your safety on the Services website and mobile application. By accepting our Terms of Service and accessing the Services in any manner, you acknowledge that you accept the practices and policies outlined in this policy and you consent to the terms described here.
Kindly note: please review the Violence Prevention Policy along with this policy for additional information you may find useful.
WHAT IS HARASSMENTHarassment: misconduct that includes unwelcome physical, verbal, or non-verbal conduct which results in a person feeling intimidated, threatened, humiliated, or demeaned, and is likely to interfere with an individual’s work, education, or living conditions. Harassment in any form, based on sex, race, color, age, national origin, ethnicity, ancestry, physical or mental disability, medical condition, genetic information, pregnancy, marital status, religion, gender, gender expression or gender identity, sexual orientation, military or veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by state or federal laws (“protected characteristics”), is unlawful and strictly prohibited, as are all forms of sexual intimidation, exploitation, and violence.
Steady Flow LLC and Stablemate are committed to educating the community in ways to prevent its occurrence. Complaints concerning sexual and gender-based discrimination, harassment, and sexual misconduct can be reported to local and state authorities and may result in arrest and civil or criminal sanctions.
CONDUCT BECOMES UNLAWFUL HARASSMENT WHEN:Anti-discrimination laws also prohibit harassment in retaliation for filing a discrimination claim, testifying, or participating in any way in an investigation, proceeding, or lawsuit under these laws; or for opposing employment practices reasonably believed to be discriminatory. Petty slights and annoyances do not rise to the level of illegality.
Examples of offensive conduct include: offensive jokes, slurs, epithets or name-calling, physical assaults or threats, intimidation, ridicule or mockery, insults or put-downs, offensive objects or pictures, and interference with work or academic performance.
INVESTIGATION AND ENFORCEMENTSteady Flow LLC, doing business as Stablemate, will conduct a fair, timely, and thorough investigation into member complaints within the scope of this policy to determine what occurred and will take reasonable steps to remedy the effects of any harassment and prevent recurrence. This may include account suspension of offenders and informing victims to contact local authorities and, if needed, to seek or retain legal services. Stablemate provides all parties with appropriate due process and reaches reasonable conclusions based on the evidence collected or reported by the member. Stablemate takes appropriate action when warranted.
For our employees, Stablemate requires training regarding harassment, violence, and the prevention of abusive conduct, consistent with federal and state legal requirements. Stablemate recommends that third parties and members also participate in such training at their discretion.
Behavior intended to dishonor protected characteristics is contrary to the pursuit of inquiry and education and may be discriminatory harassment and unlawful. Some behavior intended to harass, while inappropriate and not tolerated on the Stablemate platform, may not be unlawful. These behaviors may be addressed for members through the disciplinary process and for employees through supervisory intervention. Disciplinary outcomes may include suspension for a period of time. Every complaint is considered based on the totality of the circumstances. A single incident, if severe, may constitute harassment.
EXAMPLES OF BEHAVIORS THAT MAY CONSTITUTE HARASSMENT:This policy applies to all entities, website visitors, and mobile application members of the Steady Flow LLC and Stablemate community (citizens, professionals, students, volunteers, interns, vendors, independent contractors, persons performing services under contract with Stablemate, visitors, and any other individuals regularly or temporarily employed, studying, living, visiting, or otherwise participating on, in, or with the Stablemate website and mobile application). This policy applies to conduct occurring on Stablemate-controlled property and at sponsored events, programs, and activities regardless of location.
Members of the Steady Flow LLC and Stablemate community are encouraged to report unlawful harassment regardless of where the incident occurred or who committed it. Even if Stablemate does not have jurisdiction over the person accused of harassment, Stablemate will take prompt action and reasonable steps to remedy the effects of the harassment and prevent recurrence where capable.
Age eligibility: All members and visitors must be at least 18 years of age, or higher where local jurisdiction requires.
PROHIBITION AGAINST RETALIATIONNo member of the Stablemate community will be retaliated against for making a good-faith report of harassment or for participating in an investigation or proceeding conducted by Stablemate or by a state or federal agency. Overt or covert acts of retaliation, reprisal, interference, discrimination, intimidation, or harassment against an individual or group for exercising rights under federal and state laws are unlawful. Stablemate will take steps to prevent retaliation and will take prompt and appropriate corrective action if retaliation occurs. Individuals who violate this policy may be subject to account suspension.
PRIVACYStablemate will maintain the privacy of all individuals involved in a report of harassment to the extent possible, in accordance with the company’s Privacy Policy. Privacy generally means that information related to a report of harassment will be shared only with individuals who have a need to know. These individuals will be discreet and will respect the privacy of all involved.
CONFIDENTIALITYConfidentiality means that information shared with designated officers, executives, and employees will not be revealed to others without the express permission of the reporting individual. These professionals are prohibited from breaking confidentiality unless there is an imminent threat of harm to self or others or as otherwise permitted by law. When a report involves suspected abuse of a minor under the age of 18, these confidential resources are required by state law to notify child protective services and/or local law enforcement.
CONFIDENTIAL RESOURCESWithin the Stablemate mobile application, some members of the community, by their profession, offer skills and services for counseling. These professionals are independent contractors and licensed professionals who use the Services at will. They have their own mechanisms for resolving a person’s needs or complaints. These confidential counseling services are intended for the personal benefit of the individual and offer a setting where various courses of action can be explored. Talking to these professionals does not constitute reporting an incident to Stablemate. Members working with these providers remain under their independent evaluation and advice.
YOUR RIGHTSYou are entitled to make your own decisions in life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. No single entity should have overbearing power over you, belittle you, or dictate your livelihood. Your rights remain yours to exercise.
