1. Roles and Responsibilities

Data Processor

When you use our platform, Deventura acts as a Data Processor on behalf of your organization (the Data Controller). We process personal data according to your instructions and solely for the purpose of providing our services.

Data Controller

Deventura acts as a Data Controller when processing data for our own purposes, such as managing customer relationships, marketing communications (with consent), and improving our services.

2. Information We Collect

We collect information necessary to provide and improve our services. This includes data you provide directly and data collected automatically through your use of our platform.

Information You Provide

  • Account Data: Name, email address, company name, and role
  • Team Information: Team structure and member details
  • Repository Access: Connection to your version control systems
  • Support and Communication Data: Messages and requests you send us

Information Automatically Collected

  • Git Metadata: Commit history, merge request data, and code review activity
  • Performance Metrics: Delivery patterns and workflow data
  • Platform Usage: How you interact with our dashboard and features
  • Technical Data: Browser type, IP address, and device information

Product analytics in the Deventura portal

To improve the portal and fix errors, we collect which pages and features are used, error reports, and technical information such as browser and screen size. We link this to a pseudonymous internal user number and your organization, never to your name or email address. We do not record your screen, never collect the performance data the portal displays, and store nothing on your device (no cookies or similar technologies).

Legal basis: our legitimate interest in improving our service and keeping it reliable (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Our product analytics provider processes the data on our behalf in the EU (see deventura.com/subprocessors). The data is retained for up to 7 years.

Your right to object: you can object at any time by contacting your organization's administrator or dpo@deventura.com. We will stop the processing for your account, normally within 5 working days, and confirm to you when it is done.

All subprocessors are bound by written agreements imposing data protection obligations equivalent to those in our DPA.

  • Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission
  • Adequacy decisions where applicable
  • Additional technical and organizational measures as needed

9. Website, Cookies, and Contact Forms

Website Analytics and Cookies

We measure how our website is used with PostHog, hosted in the EU (Frankfurt). PostHog Inc. acts as our data processor.

Without cookies (default). Unless you accept cookies, we count visits without storing or reading anything on your device. PostHog briefly processes your IP address and browser type to create an anonymous visitor number that changes every day. Your IP address is not stored, and the number cannot be traced back to you or used to recognize you on a later day. We rely on our legitimate interest in understanding how our website performs.

With cookies (only if you accept). If you choose "Accept cookies", PostHog stores a cookie and similar browser storage so we can recognize returning visits and see which pages lead to a demo request. These cookies last up to one year. We rely on your consent.

Your choice. We store your answer in your browser so we don't ask again. This is necessary to respect your choice. You can change it at any time via "Cookie settings" at the bottom of every page. If you withdraw consent, the analytics cookies are removed.

Contact Forms

When you submit a contact form, we collect the information you provide (name, email, message) to respond to your inquiry. This data is processed based on your consent and our legitimate interest in communicating with you. If you have accepted analytics cookies, your request is also linked to your visit statistics in PostHog.

10. Job Applicants

If you apply for a position at Deventura, we collect and process your application data including your CV, cover letter, and any other information you provide. This data is used solely for recruitment purposes and is retained for 6 months after the recruitment process ends, unless you consent to longer retention for future opportunities.

11. Contractors and Suppliers

We process personal data of contractors and suppliers to manage our business relationships. This includes contact information, payment details, and contract-related data. Processing is based on contractual necessity and our legitimate business interests.

12. No Sale of Personal Data

Deventura does not sell personal data. We do not share personal information with third parties for monetary or other valuable consideration, as defined under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and similar regulations. Your data is used exclusively to provide and improve our services for your organization.
