In this context, identification and contact data (such as name, email address, company) as well as communication content may be processed in Pipedrive’s systems. Depending on the configuration, data may be transferred to countries outside the European Union; in such cases, this is done on the basis of appropriate safeguards (for example, standard contractual clauses pursuant to Article 46 GDPR). The legal basis for this processing is our legitimate interest in efficient and structured customer and contact management in accordance with Article 6(1)(f) GDPR; where we process data for the performance of a contract or in order to take steps at your request prior to entering into a contract, the legal basis is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR.
