The processing of personal data with Matomo is based on legitimate interests.

Please refer to our General Privacy Policy to understand more about how we use your personal data in line with legitimate interests.

Processing your personal data such as cookies helps us identify what is working and what is not on our website. For example, it helps us identify if the way we are communicating is engaging or not and how we can organize the structure of the website better.

Recipient of the personal data

The personal data received through Matomo are sent to:

Details of transfers to third country and safeguards

Matomo data is hosted in Germany and Ireland for backup.

While 100% of your data and backups is securely stored in Europe, our company is based in New Zealand and we have contracts with a New Zealand hoster (AC3 NZ in contract with AWS New Zealand). New Zealand is one of the few countries that the EU considers to have an adequate level of data protection. This provides legal certainty for Article 44 GDPR that the data does not go to a third country like the US even though we are using AWS. Because no personal data is transferred to third countries, no SCC’s are needed.

This means that Matomo Cloud is safe to use in the EU and fully GDPR-compliant.

Retention period or criteria used to determine the retention period

We are keeping the personal data captured within Matomo for a period of 13 months, in line with the policy of our parent company Sopra Steria (who are based in France).
