Frequently Asked Questions
Tell me more about the internal reorganization and what it means for me.
As you may know, MSW has been part of the Surfline\Wavetrak group of companies since it was acquired in 2017. In the
coming months, certain MSW assets held by our UK subsidiary (Wavetrak Limited), including MSW user data, will be
transferred to our US parent company (Surfline\Wavetrak, Inc.) as part of internal efforts to optimize our legal
entity structure and how we transact with customers across the Surfline\Wavetrak group of companies.
These are the major ways this change will affect you as a user once the transfer is complete:
- Your agreement with the UK entity will be transferred to the US entity and the US entity will be the new party
to the contract. Here is more information on the new party: -
Surfline\Wavetrak, Inc.
300 Pacific Coast Highway, Suite 310
Huntington Beach, CA 92648
Email: support@surfline.com - Once the transfer is complete, personal data of MSW users will be collected and controlled by our US entity.
Until such time, personal data will be controlled and processed by both the UK and US entities. We have mechanisms
in place to enable the lawful and secure processing of personal data by both entities.
What if I don’t want my data subject to the transfer?
If you would like to opt-out of having your personal data transferred to the US entity, you may do so by exercising
your data rights. Please reach out to support@magicseaweed.com if you
wish to exercise your rights.
It is important to note, that if you opt-out you will be unable to use MSW going forward.
Will MSW be making any other changes?
There are currently no additional changes to communicate. In the event there are future changes that will affect
your use of MSW, we will provide advanced notice to allow you to prepare for those changes and communicate if any
action is needed on your part.
