Matrix Booking Limited is a data controller for all our own organisational and employee data and a data processor (i.e. processes personal data on behalf of data controllers) for most of our customers that use our resource management solutions. Matrix Booking can also be a sub-processor (i.e. contracted to process data on behalf of another data processer) for some of our customers that use cross-organisational hub networks.
