Thank you for your interest in ElisaBit UG (haftungsbeschränkt) and our AI-powered SaaS platform agentbit. Data protection is our highest priority. Personal data is always processed in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG), the German Telecommunications and Telemedia Data Protection Act (TTDSG) and the EU AI Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2024/1689, "EU AI Act").

4. Hosting
These web pages and the agentbit web app are hosted with a cloud infrastructure provider whose data centres are in Germany — no third-country transfer in the hosting stack. A data processing agreement under Art. 28 GDPR is in place with the hosting provider.
5. Server log files
When you visit, we record technically necessary connection data: IP address (truncated after 7 days), browser type and version, operating system, referrer as well as date and time. Deleted after 14 days. Legal basis: Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.
6. Cookies and consent
We use cookies. Before your first visit a TTDSG-compliant consent banner appears with the default setting "all non-essential rejected". You can change or withdraw your choice at any time via the "Cookie settings" link in the footer. Legal basis: § 25 (1) TTDSG in conjunction with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR.
7. Google Analytics 4
On this website we use Google Analytics 4 (provider: Google Ireland Ltd., Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland) — only with your consent via the consent banner (“Analytics” category). Without consent no connection to Google servers is established and no analytics script is loaded. We use Google Consent Mode v2; Google Analytics 4 neither logs nor stores IP addresses. Standard contractual clauses (EU) 2021/914 and a certification under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework are in place for any transfers to the US parent Google LLC. Legal basis: Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR; you can withdraw consent at any time via “Cookie settings” in the footer.
8. Contact form and email
Submissions from the contact form reach our mailbox via an email delivery service. Where processing is carried out by a provider with a US connection, this is based on standard contractual clauses 2021/914 (SCC) and the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF). Retention: 24 months after the last interaction.
9. agentbit web app
For trial and contract accounts we process name, email, company as well as usage and configuration data. The data is stored exclusively in data centres in Germany.
9.1 AI processing
For every request we detect personal data (PII detection via our "Data Guard" component) and route accordingly: where PII is detected, processing takes place locally on an open-source model on a server in Germany — no third-country transfer. Non-sensitive requests are processed via cloud LLMs in the EU with pseudonymisation (see section 10).
9.2 Connector links (third-party integrations)
When you connect an external connector in the platform (e.g. Google Ads, ClickUp, Lexoffice), we show you a data protection notice under Art. 13 GDPR before the connection is established, stating the provider's registered office, the categories of data transferred, the legal basis for any third-country transfer (DPF/SCC), the retention period, a reference to its sub-processor list and a note about your right of withdrawal under Art. 7 (3) GDPR. The connection is only established after your active consent; the consent is logged with a timestamp and version ID. You can withdraw the connection at any time under Settings → Connections.
10. Processors / sub-processors
We use processors from the following categories:
- Cloud infrastructure & hosting (data centres in Germany)
- AI / language model providers (EU data residency)
- Email delivery & technical support services (EU; US providers with SCC + DPF)
- Payment provider (EU)
- Accounting software (EU)
- Third-party services connected by the customer (only while connected)
Data processing agreements (DPAs) under Art. 28 GDPR are in place with all processors. We provide customers with the named list of processors on request or as part of the DPA.
For US providers we apply cumulatively: standard contractual clauses (EU) 2021/914, the US parent's EU-US Data Privacy Framework certification, EU region pinning, customer-managed keys for data at rest, PII pseudonymisation before every cloud LLM call, and encryption in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256-GCM).
11. Retention period
- Server log files: 14 days
- Contact form: 24 months
- Trial account: 90 days after the trial ends
- Customer data in the platform: as per the DPA (usually contract term + 30 days)
- Accounting: 10 years (§ 147 AO)
- Audit logs: 90 days live, 7 years archived
- Consent logs (connector links): contract term + 3 years (proof obligation, Art. 7 GDPR)
12. Your rights
You have the right at any time to access (Art. 15 GDPR), rectification (Art. 16), erasure (Art. 17), restriction of processing (Art. 18), data portability (Art. 20), objection (Art. 21) and withdrawal of consent (Art. 7 (3) GDPR). Please send requests to: datenschutz@elisabit.de
Right to lodge a complaint (Art. 77 GDPR): Hamburg Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information (HmbBfDI), Ludwig-Erhard-Straße 22, 7th floor, 20459 Hamburg, https://datenschutz-hamburg.de
13. AI notice (Art. 50 EU AI Act)
agentbit uses AI systems (large language models, memory layers, autonomous agents). AI output is labelled in the application. The AI systems make no autonomous decisions with legal effect on individuals (Art. 22 GDPR); critical decisions are subject to human review (human in the loop).
