Overview

## What does Tritac Katana Commerce do?

## **What Tritac Katana Commerce is and how it works**

Tritac Katana Commerce is an online commerce service operated by Tritac. It powers the storefront, the basket and the checkout, so it processes the personal data your customers provide to place and manage an order.

## **What data and cookies Tritac Katana Commerce processes**

Tritac Katana Commerce processes the data needed to run a shop, including name, address, contact details, order history and a session cookie that keeps the basket and the login active during a visit.

## **GDPR and ePrivacy implications**

Running a shop mixes several lawful bases. Session and order data rest on the performance of the contract, while any analytics or marketing layered on top needs separate consent and a clear separation in the cookie banner.

## **Do you need consent**

Because Tritac Katana Commerce sets cookies or processes identifiers that are not strictly necessary, you must obtain prior, informed and freely given consent before it loads.

## **International data transfers**

Tritac is a Belgian provider that runs Katana Commerce on infrastructure within the European Union, so store data is not transferred outside the European Economic Area by default. Even so, record the hosting location in your records of processing to demonstrate accountability under Article 30 GDPR.

## **How to stay compliant with Tritac Katana Commerce**

Separate the strictly necessary cookies from the optional ones in Tritac Katana Commerce, gate analytics and marketing behind consent, sign a data processing agreement with Tritac, and publish a clear privacy notice covering orders, payment and delivery.
