This Data Processing Agreement (“DPA”) forms part of the Terms of Service (“Agreement”) between Galactify GmbH, [Georg-Brauchle-Ring 50, c/o wayra, 80992 Munich, Germany] (“Processor” or “Galactify”), and the customer (“Controller” or “Customer”) who uses the Galactify browser-based workspace.

1. Subject Matter and Duration

This DPA governs the processing of personal data by Galactify on behalf of the Customer within the Galactify browser-based workspace. Processing begins upon the Customer’s use of the Service and continues until all personal data are deleted or returned in accordance with this DPA.

2. Nature and Purpose of Processing

Galactify processes personal data as necessary to operate its browser-based productivity platform, which allows teams to manage projects, create diagrams, capture ideas, and organize knowledge collaboratively. Processing includes storage, transmission, organization, and display of Customer data to authorized users.

3. Types of Data and Categories of Data Subjects

Personal Data:
User account details (name, email address, credentials)
Workspace content and metadata (project titles, tasks, notes, diagrams)
Technical data (usage logs, browser type, IP address)
Data Subjects:
Users authorized by the Customer (employees, contractors, collaborators)

4. Roles and Responsibilities

The Customer acts as Controller and determines the purposes and means of processing.
Galactify acts as Processor and processes personal data solely on the Controller’s documented instructions, as set forth in this DPA and the Agreement.
Each party ensures compliance with applicable data-protection laws.

5. Processor Obligations

Galactify shall:

1. Process personal data only on documented instructions from the Customer.

2. Ensure confidentiality of personnel with access to personal data.

3. Implement technical and organizational measures in accordance with GDPR Art. 32 and ISO 27001 controls (e.g., encryption, access control, backup).

6. Sub-Processors

To provide and maintain the Service, Galactify engages the following sub-processors that may have access to or process personal data on behalf of the Customer. Personal data is stored and processed within the geographical region selected by Galactify – currently Frankfurt, Germany (EU), unless otherwise required for redundancy or backup purposes within the European Economic Area.

The following sub-processors support the delivery of the Service:

Google Cloud Platform (Google Ireland Ltd.) provides the cloud infrastructure, hosting, and storage environment for the Galactify app within the Frankfurt (Germany) region, and delivers AI-related processing services (such as text generation or diagram creation features) as part of Galactify’s intelligent functionality. For the avoidance of doubt, Galactify configures Google Cloud AI services so that Customer Data processed via these AI features is excluded from model training and is not retained by Google for model improvement. Google is contractually prohibited from using Customer Data for model training without explicit opt-in; Galactify does not provide such opt-in. All processing is performed within Google’s EU data centers under the EU Data Processing and Security Terms and subject to the EU Standard Contractual Clauses where applicable.

MongoDB Atlas (MongoDB Ltd.) provides managed database hosting and backup services, with primary data storage in Frankfurt (Germany).

Brevo (Sendinblue GmbH) provides transactional email delivery for system notifications and account-related messages, with processing located in Germany.

MontiAPM provides application monitoring, performance tracking, and error-diagnostic services; processing is limited to technical metadata such as request logs and performance metrics within the EU region.

PostHog (PostHog, Inc.) provides product analytics and feature flag services to support in-app usage analysis and product improvement. Processing is limited to behavioral and technical data such as user interactions and feature usage events. While PostHog, Inc. is a US-incorporated entity, all Customer Data is processed exclusively within EU data centers under PostHog's EU Cloud infrastructure. Some data may be transferred to the US under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework or Standard Contractual Clauses. PostHog is contractually prohibited from using Customer Data for any purpose other than providing the analytics service to Galactify.

Stripe (Stripe Technology Company Ltd. / Stripe, LLC) provides payment processing, subscription management, and fraud prevention services. While Stripe acts as an independent controller for some financial regulatory purposes, it acts as a subprocessor for Galactify regarding billing and account management. Data is processed primarily within the EU (Ireland), though some data may be transferred to the US under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework or Standard Contractual Clauses.

Galactify ensures all sub-processors are bound by written agreements imposing data-protection obligations no less protective than those in this DPA. Customers will be notified of material changes to the list at least 30 days in advance.

Audits may be conducted no more than once per year, subject to reasonable notice, confidentiality obligations, and cost-recovery provisions.
