Where provided by applicable law, you may have the right to:

12. Customer relationship and controller/processor roles

When Cadentive is used by a business customer, Cadentive may process personal data on that customer’s behalf. In those cases, the customer is typically the controller for customer-provided data, and TechnologyCircle GmbH acts as processor as described in the applicable contract and data processing agreement.

If you are an end customer or meeting participant and want to exercise privacy rights relating to data submitted by a Cadentive customer, you should usually contact that customer first.

Our website and product may use cookies or similar technologies for essential functionality, security, analytics, and service improvement. If required by law, we will request consent before using non-essential cookies or similar technologies.
