In the case of merely informational use of our Website, i.e. if you do not otherwise submit information to us, we only collect the personal data that your browser transmits to our server.
The storage of the aforementioned data is necessary for technical reasons to provide a functional Website and to ensure system security. This also applies to the storage of your IP address, which necessarily takes place and, under further conditions, can at least theoretically enable an identification of your person. In addition to the above-mentioned purposes, we use server log files exclusively for the needs-based design and optimization of our Website purely statistically and without any identification of your person. This data is not merged with other data sources, nor is the data evaluated for marketing purposes.
The access data collected in connection with the use of our Website is only stored for the period of time for which this data is required to achieve the above-mentioned purposes. Your IP address is stored on our web server for a maximum of 7 days for IT security purposes.
Insofar as you visit our Website to obtain information about our services or to use them, the basis for the temporary storage and processing of the access data is Art. 6(1) b) GDPR (legal basis), which permits the processing of data for the performance of a contract or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In addition, Art. 6(1) f) GDPR serves as the legal basis for the temporary storage of the technical access data. Our legitimate interest here is to be able to provide you with a technically functioning and user-friendly Website and to ensure the security of our systems.
If you have consented to the processing of your personal data within the meaning of Art. 4 No. 1 GDPR by us, Art. 6(1) a) GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing. The processing of personal data, which we need to fulfill contractual or pre-contractual obligations, is based on Art. 6(1) b) GDPR. If the processing is necessary to safeguard our legitimate interests or those of a third party and the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not override these, we use Art. 6(1) f) GDPR as the legal basis for the processing of personal data. For the processing operations carried out by us, we indicate in this Privacy Policy the applicable legal basis in each case. A processing operation may also be based on several legal bases. Unless otherwise stated in this privacy policy, your data will only be stored on servers within the European Economic Area (EEA).
For the processing operations carried out by us, we indicate in this Privacy Policy how long the data will be stored by us and when it will be deleted or blocked. Unless an explicit storage period is specified below, your personal data will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose or legal basis for the storage no longer applies.
However, storage may take place beyond the specified time in the event of a (threatened) legal dispute with you or other legal proceedings, or if storage is provided for by legal regulations to which we are subject as the responsible party (e.g. Section 257 of the German commercial code (Handelsgesetzbuch, “HGB”), Section 147 of the German fiscal code (Abgabenordnung, “AO”). If the storage period prescribed by the legal regulations expires, the personal data will be blocked or deleted unless further storage by us is necessary and there is a legal basis for this.
We don’t undertake profiling activities.
The following categories of recipients, which are usually data processors, may receive access to your personal data:
In addition, we will only share your personal data with third parties if you have given your express consent to do so in accordance with Art. 6(1) a) GDPR.
We may share your personal data with third parties or disclose it to the third parties. These third parties may also be located outside the European Economic Area (EEA), i.e. in third countries. Such processing is primarily done to fulfill contractual and business obligations and to maintain our business relationship with you. We will inform you about the respective details of the transfer below at the relevant points. The European Commission certifies data protection comparable to the EEA standard in some third countries by means of so-called adequacy decisions (a list of these countries and a copy of the adequacy decisions can be found here: https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/law-topic/data-protection/international-dimension-data-protection/adequacy-decisions_de). In other third countries to which personal data may be transferred, there may not be a consistently high level of data protection due to a lack of legal provisions. If this is the case, we ensure that data protection is adequately guaranteed. This is possible via binding corporate rules, so-called standard contractual clauses of the European Commission for the protection of personal data, certificates or recognized codes of conduct. Please contact us if you would like more information on this.

If you contact us via an e-mail address provided on our Website or via the contact form provided on our Website, the personal data transmitted by you with this email or the contact form will be stored.
The legal basis for processing the data transmitted in the course of sending an e-mail or using the contact form is Art. 6(1) f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest is to answer your contact request. If the contact is aimed at the conclusion or execution of a contract (e.g. Platform Usage Agreement), the additional legal basis for the processing is Art. 6(1) b) GDPR.
The processing of the transmitted personal data serves us solely to process the contact request. The data will be deleted within a reasonable period of time as soon as they are no longer necessary to achieve the purpose for which they were collected. In the case of a contact request, this is the case when the respective conversation with you has ended, unless contractual or legal obligations prevent deletion. The conversation is terminated when it can be inferred from the circumstances that the matter in question has been conclusively clarified. The deletion takes place no later than three years after the end of the year in which the conversation with you ended.
Tapline uses the chat service of HubBot by HubSpot, 25 First Street, 2nd Floor Cambridge, MA 02141 United States . We use HubBot to create a chatflow with a bot in order to connect with our Website visitors. The bot appears as a chat widget on our website pages where you can start a conversation. You can use the live chat like a contact form to chat with our staff in near real time. When you call up the chat function and enter your name and email address, the following data is automatically collected:
Once you have entered your request in the topic field, we store this content and further chat history. Further information on data protection is available in HubBot’s Privacy Policy at https://legal.hubspot.com/privacy-policy

Our legitimate interest is to provide you with a quick and efficient way to contact us via our website and to process the request from you and to collect information about you (e.g., name) and your company (e.g., company name, financial and accounting data). The processing of the automatically collected data serves at the same time to maintain and ensure the functionality of our information technology systems. If contacting us via the live chat simultaneously serves to conclude a contract with us, Art. 6(1) b) GDPR is a further legal basis for data processing.
The processing of data from the live chat serves the purpose of offering you an additional, fast and direct contact option to us as well as to answer questions and concerns directly and thus to further improve our customer service.
We store the live chat history for the duration of three (3) years. Afterwards, the live chat data will be deleted immediately.
We use appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your data against accidental or intentional manipulation, partial or complete loss, destruction or against unauthorized access by third parties.

Companies that wish to use our Platform to sell and assign the receivables of their Subscription Agreements (such companies referred to as “Seller” or “Sellers”) must register on our Platform and conclude a Platform Usage Agreement with us. As part of the registration process, Sellers must provide us with various data about their company, their business, and the Subscription Agreements they have concluded with their customers (see sections 3.3. and 3.4 of the Platform Usage Agreement). Even after completing the registration process and during the use of the Platform, Sellers must continuously update this data. We need this data to verify that the Seller’s company, their business, and the Seller’s Subscription Agreements meet the requirements agreed in the Platform Usage Agreement for publishing the Seller’s request to sell and assign the receivables under those Subscription Agreements to the potential purchasers on our Platform. Most of this data consists of non-personal financial, accounting and other business data that the potential purchaser needs to (i) evaluate the receivables under the respective Subscription Agreements, (ii) decide whether and in what amount to make an offer to purchase and (iii) to enter into a valid purchase agreement with the Seller (hereinafter “Receivables Purchase Agreement”). However, some of the data provided to us by the Seller may contain information that relates to identified or identifiable natural persons. Please note the following in this regard:
When registering, a Seller must provide the following data:
The first step in the registration process is to create a User Account for our Platform. This requires the following data from the Seller (“Access Data”):
To confirm the provided e-mail address, we store the e-mail address and password immediately during the registration process in order to be able to send you a confirmation e-mail as part of a double opt-in procedure. By clicking on the link listed in the e-mail, you confirm that your e-mail address is correct. Apart from the e-mail address and your password, the Company Data listed below will only be stored by us if you click on the link in the confirmation e-mail during the ongoing registration process.
The legal basis for this data processing is our legitimate interest in verifying the e-mail address provided by you (Art. 6(1) f) GDPR).
After verification of the e-mail address, the e-mail address and the password will be stored by us as the Seller’s Access Data to the Platform. The Seller may change the Access data after the conclusion of the Platform Usage Agreement. The Access Data will be deleted as soon as we are no longer contractually required to provide the Seller access to our Platform.
If the provided email address relates to a contact person / representative that is the contracting party of the Platform Usage Agreement (e.g. if the Seller acts as sole proprietor), the legal basis for the processing of the Access Data is Art. 6 (1) b) GDPR, as this is necessary for the performance of the Platform Usage Agreement with the Seller. If the email address relates to a contact person / representative that is an employee or other representative of the Seller, the legal basis for the processing of the Access Data is our legitimate interest in processing the Access Data for the purpose of the conclusion and performance of the Platform Usage Agreement with the Seller (Art. 6(1) f) GDPR).
In the further registration process, the following data related to the company and business of the Seller must be provided:
Company/Company name/designation of the Seller, commercial register number, business address, VAT identification number, telephone number, telefax number, email address, IBAN/BIC/name of the bank account to be used in relation to the Platform and to be used for payments in case that a Receivables Purchase Agreement between Seller and a purchaser will be concluded (hereinafter: “Bank Account”), first names/surnames of all of the Seller’s legal representatives, place/date of birth/nationality/residential address of all of the Seller´s legal representatives (“Company Data”).
Regarding any personal data contained in the Company Data, the following applies:
If the Company Data relates to you as the contracting party of the Platform Usage Agreement (e.g. if you are sole proprietor) the legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 (1) b) GDPR, as this is necessary for the performance of the Platform Usage Agreement with you as the Seller. If the personal data relates to you as an employee or other representative of the Seller the legal basis for the processing of the Company Data is our legitimate interest in processing the Company Data for the purpose of the conclusion and performance of the Platform Usage Agreement with the Seller (Art. 6(1) f) GDPR).
The respective Company Data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. Personal data in the Company Data is therefore in most cases deleted when the data is no longer required for the execution of the Platform Usage Agreement; in general, we will delete such data after three (3) years. However, storage may take place beyond the specified time in the event of a (threatened) legal dispute with you or other legal proceedings, or if storage is provided for by legal regulations to which we are subject as the responsible party (e.g. Section 257 of the German commercial code (Handelsgesetzbuch, “HGB”), Section 147 of the German fiscal code (Abgabenordnung, “AO”). If the storage period prescribed by the legal regulations expires, the personal data will be blocked or deleted unless further storage by us is necessary and there is a legal basis for this.
For security reasons, we use a KYC (“Know Your Customer”) and KYB (“Know Your Business”) process as part of the registration process. The KYC process serves to verify the identity of the Seller (e.g., if you are sole proprietor) or of the contact person / representative of the Seller that handles the registration. The KYB process serves to verify the company of the Seller. KYC and KYB processes are performed to prevent misuse and fraudulent actions and thus help us to increase the security of and trust in the Platform. In addition, we have to comply with legal obligations that are intended to fight money laundering (Anti-Money-Laundering Laws), terrorist financing and tax crimes. For this purpose, the following data is transferred to the service provider Sum and Substance Ltd (UK), 30 St. Mary Axe, London, England, EC3A 8BF (“sumsub”) commissioned by us to perform the KYC and KYB process:
The transfer and processing of this data to and by sumsub is based on your consent (Art. 6(1) a) GDPR) and, as insofar as the transfer and processing is necessary for the fulfillment of a legal obligation (e.g., Anti-Money-Laundering Laws), the legal basis is Art. 6(1) c) GDPR. In addition, the transfer and processing to and by sumsub is also based on Art. 6(1) f) GDPR; our legitimate interest here is to ensure to prevent misuse and fraudulent actions and thus help us to increase the security of and trust in the Platform.
For further details on the data processing by sumsub please check:
https://sumsub.com/data-protection-policy/
After successful verification by Sumsub, only the KYC and KYB status is transmitted to us and stored in our database.
Either through a software interface between Seller’s preferred subscription software or manually the Seller has to provide us with certain contract data on the Subscription Agreements including subscription ID, subscription product, subscription start date, subscription end date, subscription current start date, subscription current term end, subscription cancel date, subscription status, subscription billing cycle, next payment date, subscription payment method, subscription payment currency, subscription base currency, subscription fixed amount, free trial start date, free trial end date, amount of unpaid invoices, total due amount, unpaid amount due since date, subscription customer ID, subscription customer name, subscription customer address, subscription customer email address (“Subscription Agreement Data”).
Regarding any personal data of the Seller’s subscription customers contained in the Subscription Agreement Data (subscription customer ID, subscription customer name, subscription customer address, subscription customer email address, etc.) the following applies:
The legal basis for the processing of the personal data of the subscription customer is our legitimate interest in processing this data for the purpose of assisting the preparation, conclusion and execution of the Receivables Purchase Agreement between the Seller and the purchaser on our Platform as contractually agreed between us and the Seller in the Platform Usage Agreement (Art. 6(1) f) GDPR). In addition, if Seller’s subscription customers have consented to the processing of their personal data by us, Art. 6(1) a) GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing.
The respective Subscription Agreement Data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. Personal data in the Subscription Agreement Data is therefore in most cases deleted when the data is no longer required for the execution of the Platform Usage Agreement; in general, we will delete such data after three (3) years. However, storage may take place beyond the specified time in the event of a (threatened) legal dispute with you or other legal proceedings, or if storage is provided for by legal regulations to which we are subject as the responsible party (e.g. Section 257 of the German commercial code (Handelsgesetzbuch, “HGB”), Section 147 of the German fiscal code (Abgabenordnung, “AO”). If the storage period prescribed by the legal regulations expires, the personal data will be blocked or deleted unless further storage by us is necessary and there is a legal basis for this.
Either through a software interface between Seller’s preferred accounting software or manually the Seller has to provide us with certain accounting data related to Seller’s Subscription Agreements, including income statement, balance sheet and cash flow statement (“Accounting Data”). In addition, the Seller has to provide the following data related to Seller’s Bank Account to the extent the Bank Account Data is used for any transactions related to the Platform and to be used for payments in case that a Receivables Purchase Agreement between Seller and a purchaser will be concluded: account holder name, a list of account holder’s accounts (account number, IBAN), on transactions regarding the Bank Account (date, merchant or counterparty (partner) name, description (info field), amount) and regarding Balances on the Bank Account (current and available) (“Bank Account Data”). We will use the Service Provider Nordigen Solutions Limited, with registered office in Riga, Latvia to access Seller’s Bank Account Data. For further information on how Nordigen Solutions Limited process personal data please check:
https://nordigen.com/en/company/privacy-policy-end-user/
If the Accounting and Bank Account Data relates to you as the contracting party of the Platform Usage Agreement (e.g. if you are sole proprietor) the legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 (1) b) GDPR, as this is necessary for the performance of the Platform Usage Agreement with you as the Seller. If the personal data relates to you as an employee or other representative of the Seller the legal basis for the processing of the Accounting and Bank Account Data is our legitimate interest in processing the Accounting and Bank Account Data for the purpose of the conclusion and performance of the Platform Usage Agreement with the Seller (Art. 6(1) f) GDPR).
The respective Accounting and Bank Account Data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. Personal data in the Accounting and Bank Account Data is therefore in most cases deleted when the data is no longer required for the execution of the Platform Usage Agreement; in general, we will delete such data after three (3) years. However, storage may take place beyond the specified time in the event of a (threatened) legal dispute with you or other legal proceedings, or if storage is provided for by legal regulations to which we are subject as the responsible party (e.g. Section 257 of the German commercial code (Handelsgesetzbuch, “HGB”), Section 147 of the German fiscal code (Abgabenordnung, “AO”). If the storage period prescribed by the legal regulations expires, the personal data will be blocked or deleted unless further storage by us is necessary and there is a legal basis for this.
As soon as we publish Seller’s request to sell and assign the receivables under the Subscription Agreements selected by Seller, the potential purchasers will get access to the respective Company Data, Subscription Agreement Data, Accounting Data and Bank Account Data to evaluate Seller’s request. If Seller and Purchaser enter into a Receivables Purchase Agreement, we will use the respective Company Data and Subscription Agreement Data to generate the Receivables Purchase Agreement.
If the personal data contained in the aforementioned Data relates to you as the contracting party of the Platform Usage Agreement (e.g. if you are sole proprietor) the legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 (1) b) GDPR, as this is necessary for the performance of the Platform Usage Agreement with you as the Seller. If the personal data relates to you as an employee or other representative of the Seller or to you as a subscription customer, the legal basis for the processing of the Accounting and Bank Account Data is our legitimate interest in processing the Data for the purpose of the conclusion and performance of the Platform Usage Agreement with the Seller (Art. 6(1) f) GDPR).
Regarding the storage and deletion of any Company Data, Subscription Agreement Data, Accounting Data and Bank Account Data we refer to the respective provisions above.
