2 Processing of data when visiting the Denario App
2.1 Scope of data processing
Our system automatically collects data and information from the computer system from which you access the Denario Portal. This involves processing the following data (the "Log Data"):
- Information about the type of browser and the version used (so-called user agent);
- the operating system of your computer system;
- the IP address of your computer system;
- the amount of data sent in bytes;
- the date, time and duration of access;
- the language setting.
Log Data – with the exception of the IP address – does not allow any personal reference. It is also not possible for us to establish a personal relationship via the assignment or linking of Log Data and IP address. The IP address is processed and stored by us in log files.
2.2 Purpose of the data processing
Log Data, in particular your IP address, is collected to make the Denario Portal and its content available. For the data traffic between your computer system and the Denario Portal, a storage of the IP address is necessary. This is done to ensure the functionality and security of the Denario Portal and our information technology systems. In addition, this data can be used to optimize the performance of our server infrastructure, identify any problems and finally analyze and rectify them. At the same time, this is a continuous improvement of the Denario Services.
2.3 Legal basis
To the extent the processing of your personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract or in order to take steps prior to entering into a contract, the legal basis for the collection of data is Article 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. b) GDPR (implementation of pre-contractual measures respectively contract performance).
The legal basis for the storage of the Log Data is Article 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR (protection of legitimate interests). According to this, the processing of personal data is lawful if it is necessary to safeguard the legitimate interests pursued by the controller or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject, which require protection of personal data. We have weighed this up in our favor to the extent that the data only interferes very slightly with the interests of the data subject, but for us it is necessary to store the data so that we can operate our systems and website in a stable and secure manner, in particular to detect attacks. In addition, we have an interest in measuring the utilization of our website.
3 Processing of data when using the Denario App

We use the data processed when using the Denario App to offer our products and services and to fulfil our contractual and pre-contractual obligations.

In addition to stability, the IT security of the Denario App can also be guaranteed. In addition, the collected data also enables the further development of the Denario App and the Denario Services.
3.3 Legal basis
The legal basis for the data processed when using the Denario app is Article 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. b) GDPR (implementation of pre-contractual measures or contract performance), insofar as this data is necessary for the initiation and performance of the contract.
Furthermore, the processing of data is carried out on the basis of a balancing of interests in accordance with Article 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR (protection of legitimate interests). We have carried out this assessment in our favor to the effect that the data only interferes very slightly with the interests of the data subject, while we use the data, also in the interest of the data subject, to improve the stability and security of our products.

4.3 Legal basis
The legal basis for the data processing described above is generally Article 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. b) GDPR (implementation of pre-contractual measures or contract performance). Within the scope of our business relationship, you must provide the personal data that is required for the establishment, implementation and termination of a business relationship and for the fulfilment of the associated contractual obligations or which we are legally obliged to collect. Without this data, we are generally unable to conclude a contract with you or to execute or terminate an existing contract. If you do not provide us with the necessary information, documents and respective information on changes, we will not be able to establish a desired business relationship or may have to terminate it at short notice.
In cases where processing is not absolutely necessary for the performance of the contract, the legal basis is Article 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR (protection of legitimate interests). We have weighed the interests in our favor to the extent that the collected data only slightly interferes with the interests of the data subject, while we use the data, also in the interest of the data subject, to improve the functionality, stability and security of our products. Important are, for example, the examination and optimization of processes for customer contact or business control and risk management within our company. This also includes, for example, the prevention of fraud and criminal acts as well as the provision of sufficient IT security. Furthermore, in individual cases it may be a matter of asserting, exercising or defending legal claims.
When processing your data in the sense of section 4.1.6 and section 4.1.7, the legal basis is your consent in accordance with Article 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. a) GDPR, and in the case of section 4.1.7 also Section 26 of the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG), provided that you have given your consent to the processing of personal data relating to you for one or more specific purposes. In these cases, the processing of data based on your consent is lawful until you revoke your consent. A revocation is possible at any time, is effective for the future and affects the processing of all data following the revocation. We consider the submission of application documents as consent.
Insofar as we collect data of identification and creditworthiness in sections 4.1.3 and 4.1.4, which we are legally obliged to collect, the legal basis is Article 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. c) GDPR (legal obligation). If we act on behalf of a third party, the legal basis on which the third party can rely is decisive. In this case, please refer to the privacy policy of the third party for more details.
5 Storage period
Your data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected (see sections 2.2, 3.2 and 4.2 above) and the respective statutory retention periods have expired in each individual case. Therefore, we do not process and store your data for longer than is necessary to fulfil our contractual and legal obligations. In particular, it must be taken into account that your business relationship with us is generally a continuing obligation which is intended to last for many years. In addition, we must retain your data, for example, in order to comply with legal, in particular commercial and tax law retention obligations. These may result from the German Commercial Code (HGB) and the German Fiscal Code (AO), among others. The retention periods to be observed by us are between two (2) and ten (10) full calendar years. Furthermore, we store data to the extent necessary to preserve evidence in accordance with the statutory limitation periods. According to Sections 194 ff. of the German Civil Code (BGB), these are generally three (3), but in certain cases also up to thirty (30) full calendar years. Data on claims from chargebacks and similar disruptions will be deleted as soon as the claim has been settled in full, unless they are part of documents that are subject to correspondingly longer retention periods in accordance with HGB and AO. Data that we collect in connection with our newsletter (section 4.1.6) will be stored – subject to a possible request for deletion or revocation at any time by clicking on the link provided at the end of each newsletter e-mail or by sending an e-mail to support@denario.io – for as long as we need this data to send the newsletter. The data will also be deleted if we stop sending the subscribed newsletter.
6 Disclosure to third parties
As a matter of principle, we do not pass on personal data to third parties. Within our company, only those departments that need your data to fulfil our contractual and legal obligations and to protect our legitimate interests will have access to it. Data will only be passed on to third parties, in particular to public bodies and institutions or service providers employed by us, in exceptional cases, if
- you have given your express consent to this in accordance with Article 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. a) GDPR; or
- a transfer is legally permissible and in particular required in accordance with Article 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. b) GDPR for the fulfilment of a contractual relationship with you or the implementation of pre-contractual measures; or
- in accordance with Article 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. c) GDPR, there is a legal obligation for the disclosure (e.g., following a request by state law enforcement authorities); or
- the disclosure is necessary in accordance with Article 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR for the protection of legitimate business interests and for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims and there is no reason to assume that you have an overriding legitimate interest in the non-disclosure of your data; or
- we use external service providers (so-called data processors) for data processing in accordance with Article 28 GDPR, who have previously been obligated to handle your data with care. These include, in particular, third-party services that we use for the functionality and improvement of the Denario Services and the security of our information technology systems (e.g., our hosting providers, cloud providers, services for connecting the Denario Services to your ERP systems, for customer communication or analysis of user behavior).
In all of the above cases, we ensure that third parties only have access to personal data that is necessary for the performance of individual tasks. Under no circumstances do we sell personal data to third parties.
7 Partner integrations
If you use certain functions for Pliant credit cards via the Denario Platform (partner integration), Pliant transmit credit card and credit card transaction data required to use the credit card functions provided by the Denario Platform (e.g. name of the card user, card number, amount, date, time, merchant name). In this respect, Pliant and Denario process the data as so-called joint controllers within the meaning of Art. 26 GDPR and have concluded agreements as to which of us fulfills which data protection obligations; we will provide you with the essential content upon request. Further information on the data processed via the Denario Platform can be found in our data protection notices. If you have any questions regarding the assertion of data subject rights, you can contact us (by email to support@denario.io, among others) as well as Pliant (by email to support@getpliant.com).
8 Data processing in the European Union; exceptions
The processing of your data generally takes place within the member states of the European Union (EU) or the European Economic Area (EEA). This also applies to cooperation with thirdparty services. A data transfer to third countries (countries outside the EU or the EEA) only takes place if this is necessary for the execution of your orders or the provision of your products or if it is required by law (e.g., fiscal or foreign trade reporting obligations) or if you have given us your consent. Where technically feasible, third-party services are used by us with activated IP anonymization.
When using individual third-party services, your IP address may be transferred to a server in the US. In the event that data is transferred to servers in the US and stored there, we include the respective current EU standard contractual clauses in the respective data processing conditions and have them signed or otherwise accepted by our third-party service providers.
9 Your rights
If your personal data is processed by us on the basis of legitimate interests pursuant to Article 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR, you have the right to object at any time pursuant to Article 21 GDPR, insofar as reasons arise from your particular situation. If you wish to exercise your right of objection, an e-mail (privacy@denario.io) will suffice. In such a case, we may only continue processing your data if there is a compelling reason that outweighs your interests, rights and freedoms. A compelling reason may arise in particular from the fact that the processing serves the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims or we are forced by law to continue processing (for example, in the case of statutory file retention periods or other special legal regulations).
You also have the right
- to revoke your consent at any time with the consequence that we will no longer process the data based on this consent in the future (Article 7 (3) GDPR);
- to request information about whether we process your personal data (Article 15 (1) GDPR). If this is the case, you are entitled to further information (Article 15 (2) GDPR). In particular, you can request information about the processing purposes, the category of personal data, the categories of recipients to whom your data has been or will be disclosed, the planned storage period, the existence of a right to rectification, erasure, restriction of processing or objection, the existence of a right of complaint, the origin of your data if it has not been collected by us, as well as the existence of automated decision-making including profiling and, if applicable, meaningful information about its details. The right to information is limited by the right of third parties to the protection of their personal data (Article 15 (4) GDPR);
- to demand without delay the correction of incorrect personal data concerning you or the completion of incomplete personal data, also by means of a supplementary declaration (Article 16 GDPR);
- to request the erasure of your personal data stored by us, unless the processing is necessary for the exercise of the right to freedom of expression and information, for compliance with a legal obligation, for reasons of public interest or for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims (Article 17 GDPR);
- to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data, insofar as (i) the accuracy of the data is disputed by you, (ii) the processing is unlawful, but you refuse the erasure of the personal data, (iii) we no longer require the data, but you need them for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims or (iv) you have objected to the processing pursuant to Article 21 (1) GDPR (Article 18 GDPR);
- to receive your personal data that you have provided to us in a structured, common and machine-readable format or to request the transfer to another controller (Article 20 GDPR);
- to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy (Article 77 GDPR). If you have any questions about data protection in our company, please contact us at the contact address given in section 1.

3 Purpose of the data processing
Essential cookies as defined in section 2.1 are mandatory. They ensure functions without which the Denario App cannot be used or offered as intended. We also need such cookies to be able to detect any problems that may occur on the Denario App. In addition, we can analyze the causes of the respective malfunction and, for example, prevent the security of your data from being compromised.
The use of cookies in accordance with section 2.2 serves our marketing. We try to increase the attractiveness of the Denario App. To do this, we would like to personalize our content as precisely as possible to your needs and, if necessary, also address you in a personalized manner outside our website. In addition, we can determine how successful individual advertising campaigns are by measuring their reach.
The use of cookies in accordance with section 2.3 serves to analyze and evaluate user behavior on the Denario App so that we can measure and improve our performance. Therefore, these cookies mainly enable statistical reports on website activity, which are used to design and optimize our products and offers to meet your needs. Also, allow for a continuous tracking of the performance of our front-end code and monitor bugs and issues. In addition, we try to increase the attractiveness of the Denario App by identifying errors or ambiguities in the operation of our website and eliminating them in the future.
4 Legal basis
As essential cookies as defined in section 2.1 absolutely necessary for the operation of the Denario Portal as well as the Denario App, they cannot be disabled. They are always active and are set without your consent. You can set your browser to block these cookies. However, if you do so, your ability to access the Denario Portal or the Denario App and use the Denario Services will be impaired. Insofar as information processed in connection with essential cookies qualifies as personal data, the legal basis for this processing is Article 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR (protection of legitimate interests). Accordingly, the processing of personal data is lawful if it is necessary to safeguard the legitimate interests pursued by the controller or by a third party, except where such interests are outweighed by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject, which require protection of personal data. We have weighed this up in our favor because the data only interferes very slightly with the interests of the data subject, but for us storage is necessary for the proper functionality of the Denario Portal as well as the Denario App. With regard to the security of our services, it is also in your interest to prevent downtime or damage that could affect the confidentiality of your data.
To the extent that personal data is processed in connection with the marketing or analysis function of the cookies pursuant to section 2.2 as well as section 2.3, this is based on your consent pursuant to Article 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. a) GDPR. These cookies are therefore only set as soon as you give us your consent to do so. To grant consent, we provide you with a communication field, the cookie banner, at the beginning of the website visit. You can obtain further information by clicking on the cookie settings.

Some of the cookies we use are automatically deleted from your device as so-called session cookies after the end of the respective browser session. In addition, we use so-called persistent cookies, which remain on your device for a certain period of time after the end of your browser session.

6 Data processing in the European Union; exceptions
The processing of your data generally takes place within the member states of the European Union (EU) or the European Economic Area (EEA). This applies both to first party cookies set by us and to third party cookies permitted by us. Data transfer to third countries (countries outside the EU or EEA) only takes place if you have given us your consent. In particular, some cookies may be set by third-party providers based in the US. In such cases, your data may be transferred to a server in the US. By consenting to such cookies, you also consent to the transfer of your data to the US in accordance with Article 49 (1) lit. (a) GDPR. Please note that US recipients may not provide a data protection level equivalent to the data protection level in the EU (see ECJ, C-311/18, Schrems II). Among other things, government authorities in the US have the right to access your data without legal restrictions or judicial reservations. EU citizens generally have no effective legal remedies against such access.
