Privacy Privacy

1. Scope

This privacy policy applies exclusively to the LinkTec Studiosoftware. For processing related to the LinkTec website and client area, please refer to our general privacy policy

Studio is waitlist-only: only waitlist signup data is processed today. The provisions on accounts, business data and billing will apply when the service opens, in the version of this policy published at that time.

2. Data Controller and Data Processing

2.1 Account Data

For account data (email, name, billing information), LinkTec acts as the data controller within the meaning of Article 4(7) GDPR.

2.2 Client Business Data

For business data that the Client integrates into Studio (content, Client's own customer data, files), LinkTec acts as a data processor within the meaning of Article 28 GDPR. The Client remains the data controller for their own business data.

Note: the precise qualification of this processing arrangement will be formalised upon the release of the final version of Studio. A Data Processing Agreement (DPA) may be concluded upon request with enterprise clients.
