Below is the End User Privacy Policy that is published on the company's support platform portal and explains what information we collect through the use of the Makersite application and how we treat that information. The link for the End User Privacy Policy is https://cad01.support.makersite.io/

Makersite GmbH (“Makersite”, or “we”) is committed to protecting your privacy. We provide this End User Privacy Policy (“Policy”) to inform you of our policies and procedures regarding the collection and storing of data relating to personal data (collectively, "data").

With this policy, we ensure that we gather, store and handle data fairly, transparently and with respect towards individual rights.

This Privacy Policy describes the types of information we collect, how we use the information, how we store the information, how we share or disclose the information, as well as the possibilities regarding the use and processing of the information. Where we decide the purpose or means for which this personal data is processed, we are the “data controller.” We will comply with all applicable data protection laws, including the General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679.

Personal data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (“data subject”); an identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.

This policy does not apply to the practices and processing of our customers, companies that we do not own or control, to individuals that we do not employ or manage.

This Privacy Policy explains but is not limited to the following:

We collect personal information if and to the extent it is necessary to provide our services to you, and if we are entitled or obliged to process personal information under applicable law.

In order to provide you a service with access to our platform and enable you to access our services, we collect your first and last name, email address and IP address. We need this information because of our agreement with you and to maintain the relationships resulting from this agreement.

We collect data, including your Personal Data, which is required to provide you with the support and services, including checking for updates, provision of support, reporting of issues and bugs, and other processing connected with the use of Makersite services.

We do not use collected data in our development and testing of products and services.

Whenever you access our platform, we may collect information that your browser sends to us which is called log data. This data may include information such as your IP address, browser version, access times and dates and other related statistics. Additionally, we use log data including your IP address for security purposes such as whitelisting, prevention and recognition of attacks and malware.

Makersite does not seek to collect any non -related data such as date of birth, home address or telephone number and Makersite does not collect sensitive personal data.

The data collected about individuals on the platform consists of:

We collect personal data in accordance with our Privacy Policy and Publisher Agreement to provision and enable access to your license.

Personal data will only be kept or used by us for the purposes listed in our Privacy Policy.

We process personal data based on four different legal grounds.

At all times, Makersite processes a data subject’s data with given consent.. You have the right to withdraw such consent at any time and we will cease to process data after consent is withdrawn. In such cases, the access rights, and permissions to the platform will be removed.

Makersite may process your data to comply with our legal and regulatory obligations e.g. preventing, investigating and detecting crime, fraud or anti-social behaviour and prosecuting offenders, including working with law enforcement agencies.

GDPR Recital 40 mentions ‘the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party or in order to take steps at the request of the data subject prior to entering into a contract’ as a legitimate basis of lawful processing and GDPR Recital 44 simply states that processing should be lawful where it is necessary in the context of a contract or the intention to enter into a contract. Therefore, we may process your data according to the Publisher Agreement and we need to process your personal data to comply with our obligations under the agreement.

Makersite processes personal data when it is in our legitimate interest to do so and when these interests are not overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject.

The Personal data we collect from you is stored in our Database. Our system processes this information in order to provide you access and support.

We will share your information with the following:

Access to personal data within Makersite is restricted to those individuals who have a need to access the information for our business purposes.

This includes external third-party service providers, such as accountants, auditors, experts, lawyers and other outside professional advisors; IT systems, support and hosting service providers; technical engineers; data storage and cloud providers and similar third-party vendors and outsourced service providers that assist us in carrying out business activities.

We may disclose your information to the extent that we are required to do so by law (which may include to government bodies and law enforcement agencies); in connection with any legal proceedings or prospective legal proceedings; and in order to establish, exercise or defend our legal rights (including providing information to others for the purposes of fraud prevention).

If we are involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or a portion of our assets, you will be notified via your account message and/or a prominent notice on our platform portal of any change in ownership or uses of this information, as well as any choices you may have regarding this information.

Our systems require identity assurance, visible trust, and strong protection and therefore Makersite security policies include data encryption, pseudonymization, firewalls, malware protection, intrusion detection, safe data storing, SSL security certificates and reliable cloud hosting.

Please be aware that, although we endeavour to provide reasonable security for information we process and maintain, no security system can prevent all potential security breaches.

We will retain your Personal Information for the period necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected and as required for business or legal purposes unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.

Where processing is based on consent, the data subject shall have the right to withdraw his or her consent at any time.
