SAP PRIVACY STATEMENT



Who is the responsible SAP Entity

This privacy statement applies to the collection and processing of personal
data:

 * during the central operation of this website and other globally operated SAP
   business activities by
   * SAP SE, Dietmar-Hopp-Allee 16, Walldorf 69190, Germany if you are in a
     member state of the EU or the EWR or in any of the countries of Andorra,
     Faroe Islands, Guernsey, Isle of Man, Jersey, Switzerland, or the United
     Kingdom or by
   * SAP America Inc., 3809 West Chester Pike, Suite 200, Newtown Square, PA
     19073, USA if you are in any other country, or by
   * a specific SAP Group Entity as may be stated in the Additional Country and
     Regional Specific Provisions at the end of this privacy statement.
 * in the context of a pre-contractual or contractual business relationship with
   you or your employer by a local SAP Group Entity.
 * in the context of a registration form when a specific SAP Group Entity is
   directly collecting personal data for the purpose of registering to a service
   or event and is therefore presented as the relevant controller on this
   registration page or website by referencing to this privacy statement.

SAP SE, SAP America, Inc., and each relevant SAP Group Entity are, depending on
the given case, hereinafter referred to as “SAP”.

This privacy statement does not apply to SAP internet-pages or web-services
which present their own privacy statement.

For what purposes does SAP process your Personal Data and based on what legal
basis?

Depending on the applicable law, there must be a justification for processing of
personal data, which is sometimes referred to as legal basis. Here are details
on both the purpose of processing and the legal basis for doing so.

 

SAP’s compliance with statutory obligations

 * SAP processes your personal data for the purpose of ensuring an adequate
   level of technical and organizational security of SAP's products, services,
   online events, facilities, and premises. For this, SAP will take the measures
   necessary to verify or maintain the quality and safety of a product or
   service which is owned, manufactured by or for, or controlled by SAP. This
   may comprise the use of personal data for sufficient identification and
   authorization of designated users, internal quality control through auditing,
   analysis, and research, debugging to identify and repair errors that impair
   existing or intended functionality, account and network security, replication
   for loss prevention, detecting security incidents, protection against
   malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, and prosecuting those
   responsible for such kind of activity. We may further process your name,
   likeness, and other contact or compliance related data when you visit a local
   SAP affiliate or lab in the context of access management and video
   surveillance to protect the security and safety of our locations and assets.
   SAP may process personal data to create anonymized data sets which may then
   be used to safeguard and protect SAP systems including data, equipment,
   facilities and networks.
 * SAP and its products, technologies, and services are subject to the export
   laws of various countries including, without limitation, those of the
   European Union and its member states, and of the United States of America.
   Applicable export laws, trade sanctions, and embargoes issued by these
   countries oblige SAP to prevent organizations, legal entities and other
   parties listed on government-issued sanctioned-party lists from accessing
   certain products, technologies, and services through SAP’s websites or other
   delivery channels (e.g. the European Union Sanctions List, the US sanctions
   lists including the Bureau of Industry and Security’s (BIS) Denied Persons
   Lists (DPL), the Office of Foreign Assets Control’s (OFAC) Specially
   Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List (SDN-List) and the US DOCs
   Bureau of Industry and Security’s Entity Lists and the United Nations
   Security Council Sanctions). SAP processes personal data to the extent
   necessary to comply with these legal requirements. Specifically, SAP
   processes personal data to conduct automated checks against applicable
   sanctioned-party lists, to regularly repeat such checks whenever a
   sanctioned-party list is updated or when a user updates his or her
   information. In case of a potential match, SAP will block access to SAP’s
   services and systems and contact the user to confirm his or her identity.
 * If necessary, SAP uses personal data to prevent or prosecute criminal
   activities such as any form of cybercrime, the illegal use of our products
   and services or fraud, to assert our rights or defend SAP against legal
   claims.
 * To comply with data protection and unfair competition law related
   requirements. Depending on the country in which the relevant SAP Group
   company operates, and whether you have expressly consented to or opted out of
   receiving commercial information, SAP may process personal data necessary to
   accommodate your data protection and privacy choices for the receipt of such
   information and, when necessary to ensure compliance, exchange such
   information with the other entities of the SAP Group.

When ensuring compliance, SAP processes your personal data if and to the extent
necessary to fulfill legal requirements under European Union or EU Member State
law to which SAP is subject, and laws and regulations extraterritorial to the EU
(legitimate interest to comply with extraterritorial laws and regulations).

 

SAP’s operation of Web Services

SAP processes personal data for the purpose of operating, providing to you and
administering your use of SAP’s internet pages, web offerings, or other online
events. This may include, without limitation:

 * To provide Web Services and functions, create and administer your online
   account, update, secure, troubleshoot the service, provide support, improve,
   and develop the Web Services and/or answer and fulfill your requests or
   instructions.
 * To process information that relates to your visit to our web offerings to
   improve your user experience, identify your individual demand and to
   personalize the way we provide you with the information you are looking for.
   For this purpose, we collect information regardless of whether you register
   with a user profile or not.
 * To share basic participant information (your name, company, and email
   address) with other participants of the same event, seminar, or webinar to
   promote the interaction between the participants and to stimulate the
   communication and the exchange of ideas.
 * To manage and ensure the security of our Web Services and prevent and detect
   security threats, fraud or other criminal or malicious activities and as
   reasonably necessary to enforce the Web Services terms, to establish or
   preserve a legal claim or defense, to prevent fraud or other illegal
   activities, including attacks on our information technology systems.
 * To register and create a user profile to use certain web offerings linked to
   SAP’s websites, including forums, blogs, and networks (e.g., the SAP
   Community). The user profiles serve to personalize the interactions between
   the users (for example, by way of messaging or follow functionality) and to
   allow SAP to foster the collaboration and quality of communication through
   such offerings. The profile settings of the relevant web offering allow you
   to determine which information you want to share. Through the user profile
   you can share personal information about you with other users, such as your
   name, photo, social media accounts, postal or email address, telephone
   number, personal interests, skills, and basic information about your company.
 * To create a user profile, which may be specific to a single web offering of
   SAP or it may also allow you to access other web offerings of SAP or of other
   entities of the SAP Group. It is your choice whether to use any of these
   additional web offerings. If you do, SAP will make your personal data
   available to such other web offerings to provide you with initial access.
   Kindly note that without your consent for SAP to create such user profiles,
   SAP will not be able to offer such services to you where your consent is a
   statutory requirement so that SAP can provide these services to you.

When operating SAP’s Web Services, SAP processes your personal data if and to
the extent,

 * SAP obtained your consent, if required by law, to process your personal data
   for this purpose,
 * necessary to fulfill (pre-) contractual obligations with you,
 * necessary to fulfill legal requirements applicable to SAP,

necessary to pursue SAP’s legitimate interest to efficiently perform or manage
SAP’s Web Services and business operation and assert or defend itself against
legal claims. We believe that SAP’s interest in pursuing these business purposes
is legitimate and thereby not outweighed by your personal rights and interest to
refrain processing for such purpose. In any of these cases, we duly factor into
our balancing test: the business purpose reasonably pursued by SAP in the given
case, the categories, amount and sensitivity of personal data that is
necessarily being processed, the level of protection of your personal data which
is ensured by means of our general data protection policies, guidelines, and
processes, and the rights you have in relation to the processing activity.

 

SAP’s pursuit of business relationships

SAP processes personal data to pursue its business relationships with customers,
partners, and other users to fulfill pre-contractual and contractual business
relations. This may include satisfying requests, processing orders, delivering
an ordered product or service, or engaging in any other relevant action to
establish, fulfill and maintain our business relationships, including:

 * Products and services may include any of SAP’s on-prem and cloud software
   products, Web Services, apps, online-forums, webinars and events,
   non-marketing related newsletters, white papers, tutorials, trainings, as
   well as other offerings like contests or sweepstakes. When you purchase or
   intend to purchase products or services from SAP on behalf of a corporate
   customer or are otherwise associated as contact person for the business
   relationship between SAP and a corporate customer or partner (“Customer
   Contact”), SAP will use your personal data for this purpose. More
   specifically, SAP may use your personal data to confirm your opening of an
   account, manage the contract execution, send you disclosures as may be
   required by law, notice of payments, and other information about our products
   and services. SAP may respond to related inquiries, provide you with
   necessary support and process your feedback. In the context of your or your
   employers use of our products or services, SAP may communicate with you by
   post, email, live chat, contact forms, phone or any other medium to resolve
   your, a user’s, or a customer’s question or complaint or to investigate
   suspicious transactions. In case of telephone calls or chat sessions, SAP may
   record such calls or chat sessions to improve the quality of SAP’s services
   after informing you accordingly during that call and, subject to applicable
   law, receiving your prior consent before the recording begins.
 * Development of products and services: Within an existing business
   relationship between you or your employer and SAP, SAP may process your
   personal data for internal research, technological demonstration and
   development, and to help SAP create, develop, operate, deliver, improve,
   upgrade or enhance SAP products and services. SAP may process personal data
   to create anonymized data sets which may then be used to improve SAP’s
   products and services.
 * Customer Satisfaction: Within an existing business relationship between you
   or your employer and SAP, SAP processes your personal data to help us
   understand how satisfied you are with the functionality and quality of our
   products and services, to provide you with relevant information on our latest
   product announcements, software updates or upgrades, events, special offers,
   and other information about SAP’s software and services that is relevant and
   useful to you.
 * To keep you up to date: Within an existing business relationship between you
   or your employer and SAP, SAP processes your personal data to inform you
   about SAP events, products or services which are similar or relate to
   products and services you or your employer have already purchased or used.
   SAP will inform you by postal mail, email, phone or other electronic means
   about such news if SAP has collected such information in the context of the
   business relationship or has obtained this information from a publicly
   available source as far as it is allowed by law or you have consented. You
   are entitled to object to SAP’s use for this purpose at any time by selecting
   the opt-out option at the bottom of each marketing-related communication.
 * Request feedback, questionnaires, and surveys: To the extent allowed by
   applicable law, SAP may contact you for feedback regarding the improvement of
   the relevant material, product, or service. SAP may also invite you to
   participate in questionnaires and surveys. These will generally be designed
   so you can participate without having to provide information that identifies
   you as a participant. If you nonetheless provide your personal data, SAP will
   use it for the purpose stated in the questionnaire or survey or to improve
   its products and services.
 * To get in touch with you: To establish new business relationships between SAP
   and you or your employer, SAP processes your personal data to inform you
   about SAP events, products or services that have a substantive or material
   connection to your role or function in your organization. We may also contact
   you to discuss further your interest in SAP’s products or services. SAP will
   contact you by postal mail, email, phone or other electronic means if you
   have either consented to such use, or if SAP has obtained your personal data
   from a publicly available source as allowed by law or to address you for
   further consent. You are entitled to object to SAP’s use for this purpose at
   any time by selecting the opt-out option at the bottom of each
   marketing-related communication.
 * Personalized Content: SAP processes information about your interactions with
   SAP across its various business areas and its offerings (your or your
   employers prior and current use of SAP products or services, your
   participation in and use of SAP’s web offerings, events, white papers, free
   trials or newsletters) to provide you with the requested products and
   services and to improve our personal communications with you. This data may
   also be used to efficiently operate SAP’s business, which also includes: the
   automation and aggregation of data to support various analytic and
   statistical efforts, performance and predictive analytics and exploratory
   data science to support your customer journey and to fulfill such requests.
   To the extent permitted by law, SAP may combine and use such information in
   an aggregated manner to help us understand your interests and business
   demands, develop our business insight and marketing strategies, and to
   create, develop, deliver, and improve our personalized communications with
   you. It may also be used by SAP to display relevant content on SAP owned or
   third-party websites.
 * Advertising ID’s: Provided your consent or to the extent permitted by
   applicable law, SAP may create a hashed user ID to provide to third party
   operated social networks or other web offerings (such as X, LinkedIn,
   Facebook, Instagram or Google). This information is then matched against the
   third-party’s own user database to display to you more relevant SAP content.

When pursuing its business relationships, including engaging in direct marketing
and sales activities, SAP may process your personal data if and to the extent
that:

 * the contract or pre-contractual relation relates to a company or other legal
   body and if SAP processes your personal data as Customer Contact and it is
   necessary
   * to fulfill (pre-) contractual obligations (legitimate interest to
     efficiently perform or manage SAP’s business operation),
   * to maintain our business relationships with you or your employer, to ensure
     your satisfaction as a user or customer contact, to map the relevant group
     internal structures and bundle relevant business activities at central
     sources within the SAP Group, to operate them uniformly and to provide you
     with information about other SAP products and services as indicated by your
     demand or interest, which may also comprise the combination of information
     about you from different sources (profiling) (legitimate interest to
     maintain and operate intelligent and sustainable business processes in a
     group structure optimized for the division of labor and in the best
     interest of our employees, customers, partners, and shareholders and to
     operate sustainable business relationship with SAP customers and partners).
   * When providing you with information about other SAP products and services,
     we may send them to your email address provided that we (i) received your
     email address in connection with the purchase of our products or services,
     (ii) you did not object to the use of your email address for direct
     advertising and (iii)  we inform you in every approach, at any time that
     you may object to our use of your email address for marketing purposes. We
     may also send you such information by other electronic means (e.g.,
     telephone, SMS, MMS) to the extent permitted under applicable law or
     explicit or presumed consent.
 * We serve or maintain our business relationships with you, ensure your
   satisfaction as a user or customer representative, and/or provide you with
   information about other SAP products and services as indicated by your demand
   or interest (necessary for the performance of a contract and/or legitimate
   interest to operate sustainable business relationship with SAP customers and
   partners).
   
 * We operate to establish a new business relationship with you or your employer
   and you have consented to SAP’s use of your personal data for such marketing
   purpose or we (i) obtained your email from a publicly available source (ii)
   you did not object to the use of your email address for direct advertising
   and (iii) and we inform you in every approach that you may object to our use
   of your email address for marketing purposes at any time
 * Whenever you grant SAP consent that SAP may use your personal data to provide
   you with additional information on SAP products and services (General
   Marketing Consent), SAP will process your data as set out in the section
   above.

What categories of Personal Data does SAP process?

   of established business relationships, SAP processes the business partner’s
   company name, industry, your job title and role, department and function and

audio and video recordings of the event or session.

 * Special categories of personal data: In connection with the registration for
   an event, SAP may ask for your dietary preferences or information about
   possible disabilities for purposes of consideration for the health and
   well-being of our guests. Any collection of such information is always based
   on the consent of the participants. Kindly note that if you do not provide
   such information about dietary preferences, SAP may not have the opportunity
   to respond to such requests at the time of the event.

personal data according to this privacy statement, plus any additional
restrictions imposed by the third party that provided the personal data to SAP
or by applicable national law.

How long does SAP store your Personal Data?

SAP may retain your personal data for additional periods if necessary for
compliance with legal obligations to process your personal data or if the
personal data is needed by SAP to assert or defend itself against legal claims.

period or until the claims in question have been settled.  SAP stores your
personal data only for as long as it is required:

 * to fulfill SAP’s legitimate business purposes as further described in this
   privacy statement, unless you object to SAP’s use of your personal data for
   these purposes;
 * for SAP to comply with statutory obligations to retain personal data,

   or gain access to personal data either when rendering group internal services
   centrally and on behalf of SAP SE and the other SAP Group Entities or when
   personal data is transferred to them on a respective legal basis. In these
   cases, these entities may process the personal data for the same purposes and
   under the same conditions as outlined in this privacy statement. The current
   list of SAP Group Entities can be found here. If you would like to find out
   which SAP Group Entity is responsible for the business relationship with you
   or your employer, please contact us at webmaster[@]sap.com.

   to process personal data on SAP’s behalf, e.g., for consulting or other
   services, the provision of the website, the fulfillment and provisioning of
   offers from SAP or newsletter dispatch. These service providers may receive

   will constitute recipients within the meaning of the relevant data protection
   law, including GDPR.
 * SAP partners: With your consent or as otherwise indicated by your request,
   including to fulfill your ordered services, SAP may share your personal data
   with designated partner companies to provide you with the product or service
   you have requested.

   consent or as otherwise indicated by your request to companies listed on the

   use your registration data for the purposes of their participation in the
   event. They will provide you directly with any legally required information
   about their processing purposes and how you may exercise your rights.

What are your data protection rights and how can you exercise them?

SAP honors your statutory rights when it comes to the processing of your
personal data. To the extent provided by applicable data protection laws, you
have the right to:

 * Access your personal data that we have on you, or have it updated.
 * Obtain a copy of the personal data you provided to SAP, if SAP uses your
   personal data based on your consent or to perform a contract with you. In
   this case, please contact webmaster[@]sap.com and specify the information or
   processing activities to which your request relates, the format in which you
   would like to receive the personal data and whether it should be sent to you
   or another recipient. SAP will carefully consider your request and
   communicate with you how it can best be fulfilled.
 * Delete your personal data we hold about you. Please note, however, that SAP
   can or will delete your personal data only if there is no statutory
   obligation or prevailing right of SAP to retain it. If you request from SAP
   to delete your personal data, you may not be able to continue to use any SAP
   service that requires SAP’s use of your personal data.
 * Object to SAP further processing your personal data, if and to the extent SAP
   is processing your personal data based on its legitimate interest. When you
   object to SAP's processing of your personal data, SAP will carefully review
   your objection and cease further use of the relevant information, subject to
   SAP’s compelling legitimate grounds for continued use of the personal data,
   which may override your interest in objecting, or if SAP requires the
   information for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.

   consent, you may at any time withdraw your consent by unsubscribing or giving
   us respective notice of withdrawal. In case of withdrawal, SAP will not
   process personal data subject to this consent any longer unless legally
   required or permitted to do so (e.g., if your personal data is needed by SAP
   do assert or defend against legal claims). In case SAP is required or
   permitted to retain your personal data for other legal reasons your personal
   data will be restricted from further processing and only retained for the
   term required by law or fulfil the other purpose. However, any withdrawal has
   no effect on past processing of personal data by SAP up to the point in time
   of your withdrawal. Furthermore, if your use of an SAP offering requires your
   prior consent, SAP will no longer be able to provide the relevant service,
   offer or event to you after your revocation.

   supervisory authority can be found in the country specific section below.

when it comes to the processing of your personal data to the extent provided by
applicable data protection laws.

 

How you can exercise your data protection rights.

Please direct any requests to exercise your rights to webmaster[@]sap.com. SAP
will take steps to ensure it verifies your identity to a reasonable degree of
certainty before it will process the data protection right you want to
exercise.  When feasible, SAP will match personal data provided by you in
submitting a request to exercise your rights with information already maintained
by SAP. This could include matching two or more data points you provide when you
submit a request with two or more data points that are already maintained by
SAP.

SAP will decline to process requests that are manifestly unfounded, excessive,
fraudulent, represented by third-parties without duly representing respective
authority or are otherwise not required by local law.

of SAP’s international business operations. If we transfer personal data from a
country in the EU or the EEA to a country outside the EEA and for which the EU
Commission has not issued an adequacy decision, SAP uses the EU standard
contractual clauses to contractually require the data importer to ensure a level
of data protection consistent with the one in the EEA to protect your personal
data. You may obtain a copy (redacted to remove commercial or irrelevant
information) of such standard contractual clauses by sending a request to
privacy[@]sap.com. You may also obtain more information from the European
Commission and their international perspectives on data protection here.

deletion requests (or for personal data that is considered sensitive or
valuable) to minimize the harm that might be posed to you by unauthorized access
or deletion of your personal data. If SAP must request additional information
from you outside of information that is already maintained by SAP, SAP will only
use it to verify your identity so you can exercise your data protection rights,
or for security and fraud-prevention purposes. You can designate an authorized
agent to submit requests to exercise your data protection rights to SAP. The
agent must submit authorization to act on your behalf and, where required by
relevant law, the agent must be appropriately registered.

consent to share your personal information, nor limit service offerings where
you opt-out of such sharing (unless sharing is practically necessary to perform
the relevant service).

 

Children’s Privacy. Given that SAP websites and online services are not directed
to users under 16 years of age, SAP does not sell or share the personal
information of any minors under 16. If you are a parent or guardian and believe

steps to delete the information as soon as possible.
