What personal data do we process?

When you submit the contact or demo form on our site, we record the fields we ask for (e.g. name, e-mail, phone, company, team size, your message) together with the submission time, the address of the page you submitted the form from, the page address you came from, browser information and a digest of your IP address generated with a secret key; the form record on our site does not hold your raw IP address. The copy passed to our CRM system, however, may also contain your raw IP address. If you consented on the cookie banner, the sequence of pages you visited in the same session is also recorded; without that consent no such record is created at all. If you gave consent, the full text shown to you at that moment and the time of consent are also stored as proof of consent.

When you submit the form on the fit-check page, in addition to the fields above we also record the answers you gave in the check (team size, monthly budget per user, your region of operation, the features you treat as non-negotiable, and your go-live speed) together with the fit score calculated from them. Taking the check on its own sends nothing — your answers do not leave your browser; this record is created only if you choose to submit the form, and what will be sent is shown to you before you send it.

For both forms, a copy of your form record is passed from our site to our company's own CRM system (Rapitek CRM) so that we can respond to your enquiry; that system is hosted in the European Union locations listed below.

Why do we process it?

To respond to your enquiry and carry out pre-contractual discussions; to keep the service secure by preventing form abuse (bots/spam); and to meet our legal obligations.

Measurement in our e-mails

If we e-mail you in response to your enquiry, we measure whether those messages are opened and whether the links inside them are clicked. To do this, a small invisible image is placed in the message and links are routed through our measurement address. In the process we record the time of opening, your IP address and information about the e-mail program you use.

The purpose is to see whether the message reached you and to avoid sending you unnecessary follow-ups. This processing rests on our legitimate interest under article 5(2)(f) of Law No. 6698.

For any request about this measurement you can write to us using the contact details above; if you prefer, we will stop sending you e-mail altogether.

How long do we keep it?

Form records on our site are kept for 24 months from the date the form was submitted and are deleted automatically at the end of that period. The copy passed to our CRM system is not covered by this automatic deletion, and no separate automatic retention period applies to it; you may ask us to delete it at any time. Deleted records do not leave backups at once: they remain in our site's backups for up to about 6 months under our backup cycle and in the local backups on our CRM server for 30 days; our CRM's encrypted off-server backups are deleted automatically after 90 days; the unencrypted backups there are not covered by this automatic deletion.

Where is your data stored? (transfer abroad)

Your form records and CRM data are hosted within the European Union: our site's forms and form records are kept on our website server in Germany (Falkenstein), and their backups are also kept in Germany. Our CRM system's database is in Finland (Helsinki), uploaded files and images are in Germany (Frankfurt), and CRM database backups are in Germany (Falkenstein). Each customer's data sits in a separate database, and connections from your browser are encrypted with TLS; the TLS connection terminates at an edge server in Cloudflare's global network (a US-headquartered provider), whose location varies by request.

There is one exception to this separation and we state it plainly: the application's technical error logs are kept in a table shared by all customers. These records may contain personal data relating to the request at the moment the error occurred. They are kept solely for troubleshooting purposes and are not the content of your CRM itself.

This hosting constitutes a transfer abroad within the meaning of article 9 of Law No. 6698. The Board has issued no adequacy decision for the countries involved; below we name every component, the country it sits in and the provider that holds it. You may ask us to delete your data at any time — follow the steps on the Data Deletion Instructions page or write to us using the contact details above.

Who is your data transferred to? (our service providers)

To provide the service we use the following providers. Each of them processes data only for the task written next to it, and only to the extent that task requires:

  • Cloudflare, Inc. — content delivery network, TLS termination (traffic, including form contents, passes through this point decrypted and is re-encrypted on its way to our servers), web application firewall and bot protection · edge server nearest the visitor / United States
  • Hetzner Online GmbH — website server and form records · Falkenstein, Germany
  • Hetzner Online GmbH — backups of the website and form records · Germany
  • Hetzner Online GmbH — CRM application server and database · Helsinki, Finland
  • Hetzner Online GmbH — CRM database backups · Falkenstein, Germany
  • DigitalOcean — storage of uploaded files, images and voice recordings · Frankfurt, Germany
  • Amazon Web Services (AWS SES) — outgoing e-mail delivery · Frankfurt, Germany
  • Functional Software, Inc. (Sentry) — application error monitoring · Germany
  • Anthropic PBC — AI assistant (Rapi), the AI tools our team uses on our own CRM records, and our WhatsApp pre-qualification assistant · United States
  • Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd. — WhatsApp Business and Instagram messaging · Ireland / United States

In our customers' CRM accounts the AI assistant is off by default. Unless you turn it on, the data in those accounts is not sent to any AI provider. Your form records from our site, however, may be processed with AI in our own CRM: our team uses Anthropic's AI tools (Claude and the in-app assistant Rapi) on our CRM records. If you write to our WhatsApp line, your messages are passed to Anthropic PBC so that our pre-qualification assistant can reply to you. Messaging on the Meta side only comes into play when you connect your own WhatsApp Business account to the CRM.

When something on this list changes, we update this page.

Your rights (KVKK art. 11)

You have the right to learn whether your personal data is processed, to request information about it, to learn the purpose of processing, to know the third parties it is transferred to, to request correction if it is incomplete or inaccurate, to request erasure where the conditions are met, to object to a result reached against you solely through automated analysis, and to claim compensation for damage. You can send your requests using the contact details above; we respond within 30 days at the latest.
