Protecting the individual's
privacy on the Internet is crucial to the future of Internet-based business and the move toward a true Internet
economy. We have created this privacy statement to demonstrate our firm commitment to the individual's
right to privacy. This Privacy Statement outlines our personal information handling practices for
this SAP Ruum (the “Service”). If you use the Service as part of an entity or organization with an enterprise

your Personal Data. We refer to these types of users in this document as “enterprise users.”

These principles include notice of data use, choice of data use, data access, data integrity, security, onward transfer, and enforcement/oversight. We abide by the privacy laws in the countries where we do business.
This Privacy Statement covers this Service and other site that reference this Privacy Statement. Some SAP entities, programs and/or sites may have their own, possibly different, privacy statements. We encourage you to read the privacy statements of each of the SAP websites or program information you visit or review. If you use the Service as part of an entity or organization with an enterprise agreement with SAP, the term of your organization’s agreement with SAP may restrict our collection or use of your Personal Data. Even if you are not a user of this Service, some information may be gathered about you by virtue of your interaction with a user of the Service.

We will also collect Personal Data that you provide to us, such as when you fill in an optional field to let us know your job title. Depending on the integrations you use, we may also require user information to other sites where the Service can be integrated.

Whenever such transfer occurs, it is based on the Standard Contractual Clauses (according to EU Commission Decision 87/2010/EC or any future replacement) in order to contractually provide that your Personal Data is subject to a level of data protection that applies within the EEA. You may obtain a redacted copy (from which commercial information and information that is not relevant has been removed) of such Standard Contractual Clauses by sending a request to privacy@sap.com .

information about which Personal Data SAP processes about you and the correction or deletion of such
Personal Data. 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. Kindly note further that if you request that
SAP deletes your Personal Data, you will not be able to continue to use any SAP service that requires SAP’s
use of your Personal Data.

contract with you, you may further request from SAP a copy of the Personal Data that you have provided to
SAP. In this case, please contact the email address below and specify the information or processing
activities to which your request relates, the format in which you would like this information, and whether
the Personal Data is to be sent to you or another recipient. SAP will carefully consider your request and
discuss with you how it can best fulfill it.

your Personal Data from any further processing in any of the following events: (i) you state that the
Personal Data SAP has about you is incorrect, (but only for as long as SAP requires to check the accuracy of
the relevant Personal Data), (ii) there is no legal basis for SAP processing your Personal Data and you
demand that SAP restricts your Personal Data from further processing, [or] (iii) SAP no longer requires your
Personal Data but you claim that you require SAP to retain such data in order to claim or exercise legal
rights or to defend against third party claims or(iv) in case you object to the processing of your Personal
Data by SAP (based on SAP’s legitimate interest as further set out above) for as long as it is required to
review as to whether SAP has a prevailing interest or legal obligation in processing your Personal
Data.
If you take the view that SAP is not processing Personal Data in accordance with the
requirements set out herein or applicable EEA data protection laws, you can at any time lodge a complaint
with the data protection authority of the EEA country where you live or with the data protection authority
