Use of TikTok for Business Insights

We use a business corporate account that allows us to create or place advertisements or sponsored content on websites operated by TikTok. This makes it possible for us to evaluate your interaction with our content on a statistical basis. The control of advertising for specific target groups is a legitimate interest of our company. The responsibility for data collection lies mainly with TikTok Technology Limited, (“TikTok Ireland”), and TikTok Information Technologies UK Limited (“TikTok UK”). Conflicting interests of users are not overriding (publication of individual target group optimized advertising). Our legal basis is Art. 6 (1) f GDPR.

When you visit our TikTok website and its content, TikTok collects, among other things, automatically collected data such as your IP address as well as other information that is available in the form of cookies on your PC. Furthermore, TikTok stores information about the end devices of its users (e.g. advertising ID). If you are logged in as a user, a cookie with your TikTok ID is stored on your terminal device. This allows TikTok to track when you visited this page and how you used it.

Data Processing in our Application Management

You can use our career portal to apply for jobs advertised there or to submit unsolicited applications. Data processing takes place exclusively for the purpose of initiating employment relationships on the basis of Art. 88 (1) GDPR in conjunction with § 26 FDPA.

Your data will be stored for the duration of the application process; if you enter into an employment relationship with us, your application data will be stored by us for the duration of your employment relationship.

Data Processing in our Relationship with Customers and Third Parties

We process personal data of you as prospective customer, customer, partner or third parties to establish, perform and terminate a contract pursuant to Art. 6 (1) b GDPR. Prior to a contract, your personal data can be processed to prepare bids or purchase orders or to fulfil other requests of the prospective customer relating to contract conclusion. In this regard, you will need to provide any personal data that we need for preparing and carrying out our business relationship with you. In the absence of this information, we will not be able to process your inquiry and/or to perform the contract. As prospective customers you can be contacted during the contract preparation process using the information that you have provided.

We also process personal data for advertising purposes, if this is consistent with the contractual purpose pursuant Art. 6 (1) f GDPR. If your personal data is collected only for advertising purposes, you can choose whether to provide this data. You shall be informed that providing data for this purpose is voluntary. As part of the communication process, Kubermatic will ask for your consent. When giving consent, you will be given a choice among available forms of contact, such as e-mail and phone to withdraw your consent. If you object to the use of your data for advertising purposes, we will no longer use it for these purposes and will restrict or block from use for these purposes.

Next to advertising purposes, the legitimate interests, which coincide with the particular purpose, include but are not limited to: Ensure the technical operation, responding to inquiries that are not related to the contract, ensure data security, ensure data availability, and rectification of errors and faults. In the event we need to disclose data for these purposes, we will expressly notify you of this circumstance. In the absence of this information, we may not be able to process your inquiry.

We will also process your personal data for the purpose of compliance with statutory requirements that apply to us pursuant to Art. 6 (1) c GDPR. These requirements may exist under the trade, tax, money laundering, financial, or criminal code. The processing purposes are determined by the applicable statutory duty; generally, data processing will only serve the purpose of compliance with monitoring and disclosure duties under national law.

Recipients of Personal Data

We engage third party companies or individuals as service providers or business partners to support our business. These third parties are our processors and may, for example, provide and help us with computing and storage services. From time to time, we may remove or engage new processors. Kubermatic will ensure that processors are bound by written agreements that require them to provide an appropriate level of protection. Our service providers have been contractually obligated to maintain confidentiality and protect data in the event that access to personal data cannot be excluded. Data disclosure to legal authorities requires the existence of overriding statutory provisions. Data will only be transferred to third countries in compliance with the rights of the data subject and only if sufficient guarantees are effective pursuant to Art. 44 et seqq. GDPR, especially under the provisions of the EU Standard Contractual Clauses.

Deletion and Storage of Data

We will delete your personal data if it is no longer required for the purposes we pursue and if no other statutory provisions apply.

Third Party Information

We may use third-party sites and third-party platforms as well as publicly available information to collect and add some information to the information provided by you in order to give you relevant communication (for marketing purposes). Examples of collected information are additional work-related profile information.

5. Data Security

Your personal data are protected from unauthorized access and unlawful processing or transfer, as well as from accidental loss, alteration or destruction. Before the introduction of new methods of data processing, particularly new IT systems, Kubermatic undertakes technical and organizational measures to protect your personal data. These measures are based on the state of the art, the risks of processing and the need to protect the data. The technical and organizational measures relevant to data protection are documented by Kubermatic and reviewed by the Data Protection Officer. Our security measures will be continuously improved based on the state of the art.

6. Rights of Data Subjects

If your personal data is processed, you are a “data subject” within the meaning of the GDPR and you are entitled to the following claims against the “controller”:

Right of access

You have the right to obtain from us confirmation as to whether or not personal data concerning you is being processed. If we did process your personal data, you are entitled to further rights to access set forth in Art. 15 GDPR.

Right to rectification

If data that we collected on you is inaccurate or incomplete, you may claim the rectification without undue delay pursuant to Art. 16 GDPR.

Right to restriction of processing

Subject to Art. 18 GDPR, you may also have the right to claim the restriction of processing of personal data concerning you. Where processing has been restricted, your personal data shall only be processed with your consent or for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of important public interest of the Union or of a Member State. We will notify you before the restriction is lifted.

Right to erasure

If one or more of the grounds listed in Art. 17 (1) GDPR apply, you may claim the erasure of personal data concerning you without undue delay, unless there is an exception pursuant to Art. 17 (3) GDPR.

Right to notification

If you have asserted the right to rectification, erasure of personal data, or restriction of processing, we are obligated pursuant to Art. 19 GDPR to notify all recipients to whom personal data has been disclosed, unless this proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort. In addition, you have the right to be informed about who these recipients are. You may exercise your right to be informed of those recipients against the controller.

Right to data portability

Furthermore, pursuant to Art. 20 GDPR, you have the right to receive the personal data concerning you in machine readable format and to transmit this data to another controller without hindrance, provided, however, that the conditions enumerated in Art. 20 (1) a GDPR exist, or to demand to have the personal data transmitted directly from us another controller, where technically feasible and if this does not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others. This right shall not apply to processing of personal data necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.

Right to object

You have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you by written notice to Kubermatic which is based on Art. 6 (1) f GDPR. We shall not longer process your personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms or if the processing serves the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims.

Right to withdraw the consent under data protection law, rules, and regulations

You may withdraw your data protection consent at any time by notifying Kubermatic. The withdrawal of consent shall not affect the lawfulness of processing based on this consent before its withdrawal.

Right to lodge complaints with the supervisory authority

If you have any objections or complaints with the way in which we process your personal data, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the relevant data protection supervisory authority, where the applicable laws provide for such remedy.

How to contact us or to exercise your rights

If you should have any questions on the processing of your personal data, your rights as a data subject, or any consent that may have been granted, you may contact us free of charge. If you wish to exercise any or all of your rights, please email us at privacy@kubermatic.com or write a letter to the address set forth in section 1 above.

7. Provision obligation

Without providing correct data, the conclusion of a contract may not be possible. The result may be that services cannot be provided or cannot be provided in time.

8. Changes to Privacy Policy

Since Kubermatic may change and complement data processing processes, it may become necessary to amend this Privacy Policy in individual cases. Kubermatic provides the effective Version of this Privacy Policy at any time on https://www.kubermatic.com/privacy/. Status: 30.09.2024
