Data Processing Agreement (DPA)
nowyourlink processes advertiser-controlled personal data (campaign reports include click-through identifiers; the conversion pixel reflects advertiser-side state) and therefore acts as a processor under Art. 28 DSGVO for that subset. Advertisers who require a written Auftragsverarbeitungsvertrag (AV / DPA) before going live can request one as described below.
For first-party platform processing (account, KYC, billing) nowyourlink is the controller; the legal basis and recipient list is documented in the Datenschutz at nowyourlink.com/legal/datenschutz.
How to request a DPA
Section titled “How to request a DPA”- Email
legal@nowyourlink.comfrom the address registered on your advertiser account. - Include: company name, USt-IdNr., signatory name + role.
- We reply within 5 business days with a pre-signed PDF (template lives in
packages/legal/templates/{en,de}/dpa.md). - Counter-sign and return — or notify of redlines. Redlines route to legal review; expect 10 business days.
The DPA covers the data categories listed in Sub-processors and the retention timelines pinned in spec 12 §4 — both summarised here for orientation; the binding values stay in the spec and the template.
The DPA does not cover:
- The advertiser’s own controller-side obligations (cookie banner on the advertiser’s landing page, etc.).
- Anything outside the platform’s direct processing (e.g. data the advertiser submits to a downstream marketing tool).
