Does KNIME disclose personal data to third parties?

In general, we only disclose your personal data to third parties insofar as we have a legitimate interest in doing so, it is necessary to perform the contract we have with you or if you have given your consent. Furthermore, your data may be disclosed to third parties insofar as we may be obliged to do so pursuant to legal provisions or an enforceable administrative or court order.

We use third party service providers for data processing. Service providers are generally involved as so-called Processors, who may only process the personal data of the visitor of our website, our clients or job applications in accordance with our instructions. For example, your contact details may be passed along to a service provider in order to give you access to a Webinar in which you requested participation.

Is personal data sent to recipients in a third country (outside Switzerland, the EU / EEA)?

We also provide personal data to third parties, respectively Processors, that are not based in Switzerland or the EU / EEA. In this case, we ensure prior to disclosure either that the recipient provides an adequate level of data protection (e.g.: on the basis of an official adequacy decision for the relevant country, the application of standard contractual clauses (SCC) of the European Union or the model contract of the Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC) or that you have provided your consent.

We can provide you with an overview of the third country recipients along with a copy of the terms (SCC) specifically agreed to in order to ensure an adequate level of data protection.

Right to restriction of processing: Users have the right to request KNIME to restrict processing.
Right to portability: Users have the right to request KNIME to provide their data in a portable format.
Right to withdraw consent: Users have the right at any time to withdraw their consent to the processing of any personal data relating to them for any specific purpose or purposes if that processing is based on their express consent.

Right to object: Users have the right at any time to object to the processing of any personal data relating to them if the processing occurs on the basis of the legitimate interest of the controller or of a third party.
