In particular, these email notifications will include information about new features and updates with regard to the improvement and development of the SCAYLE Academy. We will also notify you of new content and videos (e.g. in case a new tutorial on a certain topic has been uploaded).

We use the software solution of HubSpot Germany GmbH (“Hubspot”) to send the email notifications. As a Processor, Hubspot processes your data exclusively on our behalf and not for its own purposes.
You can object to our notifications at any time free of charge with effect for the future at the end of each email
We use the video player from Wistia, Inc., 17 Tudor Street, Cambridge, Massachusetts, 02139 USA ("Wistia") on our Services. This is a service for hosting and embedding videos on websites. We use videos as part of the SCAYLE Academy to provide additional online courses for our products and services. The Wistia video player is only used in privacy mode on our services. This means that Wistia anonymizes users' IP addresses. Only when you interact with the videos (e.g., by clicking on them) is information collected about your use of the videos and the video player. In particular, this includes information such as the time the video was accessed, the page (URL) from which the embedded video was accessed, as well as information about how long the video was viewed, when it was paused, when parts of the video were skipped, when the video was terminated, and whether buttons and links in the video were interacted with.
The legal basis for this data processing is Art. 6 (1) f) GDPR. We have a legitimate interest in providing you with training videos tailored to our products and services.
You have the option of contacting us in several ways. By e-mail, by telephone or by post. When you contact us, we use the personal data that you voluntarily provide to us in this context solely for the purpose of contacting you and processing your request.
The legal basis for this data processing is Art. 6 (1) a), Art. 6 (1) b) Art. 6 (1) c) GDPR and Art. 6 (1) f) GDPR. We have a legitimate interest in responding to inquiries from our users that are of a general nature and not directly related to a contractual relationship.
In principle, you are not obliged to provide us with your personal data. However, the use of certain areas of our Services may require the provision of personal data. If you do not wish to provide us with the data required for this, you will unfortunately not be able to use the relevant areas of the Services.
We will only pass on your data to Third Parties outside SCAYLE if this is legally permissible (e.g. because we or the Third Party have a legitimate interest in passing it on, we are legally obliged to pass it on or on the basis of your consent).
If we are obliged to do so due to legal requirements or by enforceable official or court order in individual cases (vis-à-vis authorities);
In connection with legal disputes (with courts or our lawyers) or tax audits (with auditors);
When we work together with tax consultants;
In connection with possible criminal acts to the competent investigating authorities;
In the event of a sale of the business (to the purchaser).
If we pass on your data to Third Parties on the basis of your consent, the explanation can also be provided when consent is obtained.
We use so-called Processors in some areas of the processing of your data. A Processor is a natural or legal person who processes personal data on our behalf and on the basis of our instructions, whereby we remain responsible for the data processing. Processors do not use the data for their own purposes but carry out the data processing exclusively for the Controller.
Insofar as the Processors are not already named in this Privacy Policy, these are in particular the following categories of Processors:
SCAYLE only stores personal data for as long as is necessary for the purposes stated in this Privacy Policy, in particular to fulfill our contractual and legal obligations. We may also store your personal data for other purposes if and for as long as further storage for certain purposes is permitted by law.
We also pass on personal data to third parties or Processors based in countries outside the European Economic Area ("EEA"). In this case, we ensure that the recipient either has an adequate level of data protection or has your express consent before transferring the data.
An adequate level of data protection exists, for example, if the European Commission has adopted a so-called adequacy decision for the respective country (Art. 45 GDPR). For the USA, the European Commission has decided that an adequate level of data protection exists there if the data recipient participates in the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (DPF) and has a current certification for this. If the recipients of your personal data are located in the USA and participate in the DPF, we therefore rely on this adequacy decision (Art. 45 GDPR).
Alternatively, we ensure an adequate level of data protection by agreeing the so-called EU standard contractual clauses of the European Commission with recipients (Art. 46 GDPR). In this case, we carry out transfer impact assessments and agree additional protective measures with the recipient or implement them where necessary. Specifically, we agree Module 1 of the EU standard contractual clauses with recipients who are (independent) Controllers and Module 2 of the EU standard contractual clauses with recipients who act as our Processors.
These are third parties or Processors based in the US (we rely on the "DPF" in this respect). You can obtain a copy of the specifically agreed regulations to ensure an adequate level of data protection from us. To do so, please contact datenschutzbeauftragter@scayle.com or to the contact information set out in Section 2. contact information.
In addition to the right to revoke your consent given to us, you have the following additional rights if the respective legal requirements are met:
The right to information about your personal data stored by us (Art. 15 GDPR), in particular you can request information about the processing purposes, the categories of personal data, the categories of recipients to whom your data has been or will be disclosed, the planned storage period, the origin of your data if it has not been collected directly from you;
The right to rectification of inaccurate or completion of incomplete data (Art. 16 GDPR),
The right to erasure of your data stored by us (Art. 17 GDPR), provided that the applicable requirements for this are met and, in particular, no statutory or contractual retention periods or other statutory obligations or rights to further storage are to be observed by us,
The right to restrict the processing of your data (Art. 18 GDPR) if the accuracy of the data is contested by you (for a period enabling us to verify the accuracy of the personal data); the processing is unlawful but you oppose its erasure; we no longer need the data, but you require it for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims or you have objected to processing pursuant to Art. 21 GDPR (pending the verification whether our legitimate grounds override yours),
The right to data portability in accordance with Art. 20 GDPR, i.e. the right, in the case of processing based on your consent (Art. 6 (1) a) GDPR) or for the performance of a contract (Art. 6 (1) b) GDPR), which is carried out using automated procedures, to receive data stored by us about you in a common, machine-readable format or to request that it be transferred to another Controller (the latter, insofar as this is technically feasible),
You can assert the aforementioned rights to which you are entitled at datenschutzbeauftragter@scayle.com.
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. In particular, you can contact the supervisory authority of your usual place of residence or workplace or our company headquarters.
You have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for advertising purposes ("advertising objection").
In addition, you have the right to object to data processing on the basis of Art. 6 (1) f) GDPR for reasons arising from your particular situation. We will then stop processing your data unless we can - in accordance with the legal requirements - demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for further processing that outweigh your rights, or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.
You can assert your rights of objection at datenschutzbeauftragter@scayle.com.
Insofar as we process data on the basis of your consent, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. Your revocation does not affect the legality of the data processing carried out on the basis of the consent(s) until the revocation.
You can generally assert your right to object at datenschutzbeauftragter@scayle.com.
