This Data Processing Agreement (“DPA”) forms an integral part of the Terms and Conditions (the “Terms”) entered into between STRACKR, and the Client, being the legal or natural person subscribing to the Service.
STRACKR and the Client are hereinafter individually referred to as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties”.
Any other term hereby used with capital letters shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Terms.
1. Scope and Duration
This DPA governs the processing of Personal Data carried out by STRACKR as Processor on behalf of the Client in connection with the provision of the Service, in compliance with the Terms and article 28 GDPR.
This DPA forms an integral part of the contractual terms governing the relationship between STRACKR and the Client, together with the Subscription Agreement, the Terms, the Privacy Policy and the Cookie Policy.
This DPA shall enter into force on the effective date of the Subscription Agreement and shall remain in effect for the duration of the Subscription Agreement, for as long as STRACKR processes Personal Data on behalf of the Client in connection with the Service.
Upon termination or expiration of the Subscription Agreement, STRACKR shall cease processing Personal Data on behalf of the Client, except to the extent necessary to comply with applicable legal obligations or with the data retention provisions set out in the Terms and the Privacy Policy.
The provisions of this DPA relating to confidentiality, security of processing and deletion or return of Personal Data shall survive termination for so long as STRACKR retains Personal Data on behalf of the Client.
2. Role of the Parties
For the purposes of the Processing covered by this DPA:
- The Client acts as a Data Controller within the meaning of Article 4(7) GDPR.
- STRACKR acts solely as a Data Processor within the meaning of Article 4(8) GDPR.
As such, STRACKR does not determine the purposes for which Client Data or Affiliate Data are collected or processed and does not act as a controller with respect to such data. STRACKR processes such data on documented instructions from the Client, reflected in the Terms, the Subscription Agreement and this DPA, unless required to do so by Union or Member State law.
3. Purpose of Processing
STRACKR processes Personal Data only in the extent necessary to the performance of the Services under the Client’s instructions, and more particularly, exclusively for the following purposes:
- aggregation of affiliate data from Third-Party Platforms connected by the Client;
- synchronization and normalization of such data;
- generation of consolidated dashboards and reports for the Client;
- technical maintenance and security of the Service.
STRACKR shall not use Client Data for its own purposes, including marketing, profiling, or commercial exploitation.
4. Categories of Data Subjects
Depending on the configuration of the Service by the Client and the Third-Party Platforms connected by the Client, the Personal Data processed by STRACKR on behalf of the Client may relate to the following categories of individuals:
- Authorized Users accessing the Service under the Client’s Account;
- representatives, employees or business contacts of the Client whose information may appear in Client Data;
- individuals whose information appears within Affiliate Data originating from Third-Party Platforms connected to the Service by the Client.
STRACKR does not intentionally collect or process personal data relating to end-users of the Client’s websites or services, and the Service is not designed to perform behavioural tracking or advertising profiling of such end-users.
The categories of Data Subjects depend exclusively on the Client Data and Affiliate Data made available through Third-Party Platforms connected by the Client.
5. Categories of Personal Data Processed
Depending on the configuration of the Service by the Client and the Third-Party Platforms connected by the Client, the Personal Data processed by STRACKR on behalf of the Client may include, where applicable:
- professional identification data relating to individuals associated with the Client or its partners (such as name, professional email address or user identifiers);
- pseudonymous identifiers associated with affiliate accounts or publisher profiles;
- identifiers or references relating to transactions recorded by affiliate platforms (including transaction-level tracking parameters) which may be provided to STRACKR as part of transaction data, it being specified that STRACKR processes such identifiers solely as technical or pseudonymous strings and does not have access to the Client’s underlying datasets or any additional information that would enable it to directly identify a natural person.
Certain technical or transactional data processed through the Service, such as:
- transaction identifiers,
- timestamps,
- commission metrics,
- API credentials, or system identifiers
May constitute Personal Data only where such data can be linked, directly or indirectly, to an identifiable natural person. Whether such information qualifies as Personal Data depends on the context of its use and the datasets connected by the Client.
STRACKR does not intentionally collect or process personal data relating to end-users of the Client’s websites or services.
In particular, STRACKR does not collect standard direct identifiers of end-users (such as email addresses, IP addresses or phone numbers) through its Service, unless such data is expressly included by the Client within custom tracking parameters, in which case STRACKR remains unable to interpret or attribute such data to an identifiable individual.
For the avoidance of doubt, STRACKR does not independently determine the categories of Personal Data processed through the Service. Such categories depend solely on the configuration of Third-Party Platforms and the data sources selected by the Client.
The Client shall not transmit or make accessible to STRACKR any Personal Data falling within the special categories of data defined under Article 9 GDPR or any data relating to criminal convictions within the meaning of Article 10 GDPR. STRACKR does not intend to process intentionally such categories of data through the Service.
