5. Lawful Basis for Processing
We process your personal data only where we have a valid lawful basis under GDPR Article 6:
| Lawful basis | Processing activity | Applies to | GDPR arcticle |
| Legitimate interests | Website analytics, security monitoring, service improvement, fraud prevention | Website visitors, Platform users | Art. 6(1)(f) |

Where we rely on legitimate interests, we have assessed that our interests are not overridden by your rights and freedoms. You may request details of our legitimate interests assessment by contacting us at privacy@xygeni.io.
Where we rely on consent, you may withdraw it at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.
6. How We Use Your Personal Data

- Providing and improving our Platform and website, including troubleshooting, security monitoring and feature development.
- Managing your account and delivering the services you have contracted with us.
- Processing payments and managing billing.
- Responding to your inquiries, support requests and feedback.
- Sending service-related communications, including updates to these policies, security notices and maintenance notifications.
- Sending marketing communications about our products and services, where you have provided consent or where permitted under applicable law. You may opt out at any time.
- Complying with legal obligations, including tax, accounting and regulatory requirements.
- Protecting the security and integrity of our systems and detecting fraudulent or unauthorised activity.
- Conducting aggregated, anonymised analytics to understand how our services are used.
7. Data Sharing and Recipients
We do not sell your personal data. We share personal data only in the following circumstances:
7.1 Subprocessors
We engage third-party service providers (subprocessors) to help us deliver our services. Each subprocessor is bound by data processing agreements with obligations equivalent to those in this Privacy Policy. Our current list of subprocessors, including their purpose and location, is published at https://xygeni.io/legal/subprocessors.
7.2 Business transfers
If Xygeni is involved in a merger, acquisition, reorganisation or sale of assets, your personal data may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you of any such change and any new privacy terms that apply.
7.3 Legal requirements
We may disclose your personal data where required to do so by applicable law, court order, regulatory requirement or to protect the rights, property or safety of Xygeni, our users or others. Where legally permitted, we will notify you of such disclosure.
7.4 With your consent
We may share your personal data with third parties where you have provided explicit consent to do so.
8. International Transfers
Xygeni’s primary infrastructure is hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS) in Ireland (EU), within the European Economic Area. Personal data processed through the Platform is therefore generally processed within the EEA.
Certain subprocessors — including HubSpot and Google Workspace — are based in the United States. Where personal data is transferred outside the EEA, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place in accordance with GDPR Chapter V, including Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) adopted by the European Commission pursuant to Implementing Decision (EU) 2021/914. Details of applicable transfer mechanisms are set out in our Subprocessors list.
Where AI-powered features of our Platform process code segments, this processing occurs through our AI provider in accordance with our Platform Terms of Use and the applicable DPA. Where customers use their own AI model, all processing occurs within the customer’s infrastructure and no transfer to Xygeni’s subprocessors takes place.
9. Data Retention
We retain personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy, or as required by applicable law. Our standard retention periods are:
- Account data: retained for the duration of the contractual relationship and for such additional periods as required by applicable tax and accounting law (generally 5–7 years in Spain).
- Platform scan data and security findings: retained while the account is active and for 3 months following subscription end, after which it is automatically deleted. Users may request earlier deletion.
- Trial account data: retained for 1 month after trial expiration.
- Website inquiry and contact data: retained for up to 2 years from the date of your last interaction with us.
- Marketing consent records: retained until consent is withdrawn plus such additional period as required to demonstrate compliance.
- Legal and compliance records: retained for the periods required by applicable Spanish and EU law.
When personal data is no longer required, we delete or anonymise it securely. Backups are overwritten in accordance with our data retention schedule.
9. Your Rights Under GDPR
As a data subject under GDPR, you have the following rights:
9.1 Right of access (Art. 15)
You may request a copy of the personal data we hold about you and information about how we process it.
9.2 Right to rectification (Art. 16)
You may request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data we hold about you.
9.3 Right to erasure (Art. 17)
You may request deletion of your personal data where there is no legitimate reason for us to continue processing it — for example, where you withdraw consent and there is no other lawful basis, or where the data is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected.
9.4 Right to restriction of processing (Art. 18)
You may request that we restrict the processing of your personal data in certain circumstances — for example, while we verify the accuracy of data you have contested.
9.5 Right to data portability (Art. 20)
Where processing is based on consent or contract and carried out by automated means, you may request a copy of your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format, and the right to transmit that data to another controller.
9.6 Right to object (Art. 21)
You may object to processing based on our legitimate interests or for direct marketing purposes. Where you object to direct marketing, we will cease processing immediately. For other legitimate interest processing, we will assess whether our interests override your rights.
9.7 Rights related to automated decision-making (Art. 22)
Xygeni does not make decisions about you based solely on automated processing that produce legal or similarly significant effects.
9.8 Right to lodge a complaint
If you believe that our processing of your personal data infringes GDPR, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Spanish Data Protection Authority (Agencia Española de Protección de Datos — AEPD) at https://www.aepd.es, or with the supervisory authority of the EU Member State in which you habitually reside or work.
9.9 How to exercise your rights
To exercise any of the above rights, contact us at privacy@xygeni.io. We will respond within one (1) month of receiving your request. In complex cases or where we receive a high number of requests, we may extend this period by a further two months, and will notify you accordingly. We may need to verify your identity before processing your request.
10. Platform Users — Business Customers
Where Xygeni processes personal data on behalf of our business customers in the course of providing the Platform, Xygeni acts as a data processor and the customer acts as the data controller. In such cases, the Data Processing Agreement (DPA), available at https://xygeni.io/legal/dpa, governs that processing.
If you are an employee, contractor or other representative of one of our business customers and have questions about how your employer uses the Platform, please contact your employer directly. Xygeni processes your data in accordance with the instructions of the relevant customer and is not the appropriate contact for individual data subject requests relating to data processed on behalf of that customer.
11. Security
Xygeni implements appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, loss, destruction or alteration, consistent with our ISO 27001 certified information security management system. These measures include encryption in transit (TLS 1.2+) and at rest (AES-256), access controls, network segmentation and regular security testing.
No transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure. If you become aware of any security incident affecting your personal data, please contact us immediately at legal@xygeni.io.
12. Cookies
Our use of cookies and similar tracking technologies is governed by our Cookie Policy, available at https://xygeni.io/legal/cookie-policy. Please refer to that document for detailed information about the cookies we use, their purposes and how to manage your preferences.
13. Children’s Privacy
Our website and Platform are not directed at individuals under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you become aware that a child has provided us with personal data without parental consent, please contact us at privacy@xygeni.io and we will delete such data promptly.
14. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of material changes by posting a notice on our website and, where appropriate, by email to registered users. We will update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this Policy periodically.
Your continued use of our website or Platform after the effective date of an updated Privacy Policy constitutes your acceptance of the changes, to the extent permitted by applicable law.
