Usage data
When you visit our websites, our web server temporarily evaluates so-called usage data for statistical purposes in order to improve the quality of our website. This data consists of the following data categories:
The aforementioned log data will be evaluated anonymously.
The legal basis for the processing of usage data is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The processing is based on the legitimate interest of providing the contents of the website and ensuring a device- and browser-optimized display.
Support Data and AI Optimization
Intershop Communications AG is committed to continuously improving the quality of its self-service offerings and providing you with faster and more accurate responses to the issues you report. To this end, Intershop Communications AG uses closed support tickets to train an AI-powered chatbot for customers and partners. Before the support tickets are used to train the AI, any personal or customer-related information they may contain is removed. Once the support tickets have been anonymized in this way, it is no longer possible to link them to specific individuals or companies. The remaining content consists exclusively of technical issues, the corresponding solutions, and information regarding the affected product version. The legal basis for the anonymization of the data is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (protection of legitimate interests, based on our interest in the continuous improvement of our support services).
Data security
In order to protect your data as comprehensively as possible from unwanted access, we implement technical and organizational measures. These measures include encryption procedures on our websites. Your data is transferred from your computer to our server and vice versa via the internet using TLS encryption. You can usually recognize this by the fact that the lock symbol in the status bar of your browser is closed and the address line begins with https://.
Necessary cookies
We use cookies on our websites, which are necessary for using our websites. Cookies are small text files that can be stored on and extracted from your device. There is a difference between session cookies, which are deleted as soon as you close your browser, and permanent cookies, which are stored for more than the duration of the session.
We do not use these necessary cookies for analysis, tracking or advertising purposes. In some cases, these cookies only contain information on certain settings and are not linked to a person. They may also be necessary to enable user guidance, security and operating of the site. The legal basis for using these cookies is our legitimate interest according to Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR and § 25 (2) TDDDG.
You can set your browser to inform you about the use of cookies. You can also delete cookies or prevent the setting of new cookies at any time by using the appropriate browser settings. Please note that if you delete certain cookies, our websites may not be displayed correctly and some functions may no longer be available.
In the following you find cookies usually found with the Service Now Platform. Unless otherwise stated, all cookies utilized by the platform are required for correct functionality.
| Name | Expiration | Provider | Description | Category |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| BigIP | Session | Service Now | The BigIP cookie is used for load-balancing decisions and absolutely no customer data is disclosed. | Third Party |
| BIGipServerpool_intershopprod | Session | Service Now | The cookie is used for load-balancing decisions and absolutely no customer data is disclosed. | Third Party |
| glide_user | 15 days | Service Now | This cookie is relevant when the “remember me” checkbox is enabled. The duration for cookie expiration can be tuned with the ”glide.ui.user_cookie.life_span_in_days” system property. https://docs.servicenow.com/csh?topicname=sc-session-window-timeout.html |
Third Party |
| glide_user_activity | Session | Service Now | The glide_user_activity prevents the log-out of an active user who did not opt-in to the 'Remember Me' option. It renews periodically if the user is active during the session. Its presence is to detect if there is any activity being performed on the users' end so that the session won't lock out the user during an active session. It will help the server to refresh the session. | Third Party |
| glide_user_route | 231-1 seconds (roughly 24, 855 days) | Service Now | Please note that some web browsers enforce a maximum limit for the lifespan of a cookie, and the values observed in certain web browsers may be much lower. For example, in the Google Chrome web browser a maximum limit of 400 days is applied. | Third Party |
| glide_session_store | 30 minutes | Service Now | 30 minutes The 'glide_session_store' was added to preserve the session when moving customers from one node to another. Having it enabled will make sure their users are not logged out in case we fail them over from one data center to another. However, it is not recommended but you can disable it by adding the following property: • Name: glide.session.store.enabled • Type: True|False • Value: false The purpose of the glide_session_store cookie is for the user to recover some of the session states when the main session has been lost, e.g. when the user has been redirected to an instance different from the instance on which the session was established. Whenever a new user session is established, the glide_session_store cookie is updated. Whenever the navigation history changes, the data associated with the glide_session_store cookie is updated. The glide_session_store cookie is not used for authentication and cannot be used to authenticate. It is used only for the partial restoration of the state. Other cookies, however, such as the glide_user_activity cookie, do play a role in authentication. |

| glide_sso_id | 6004 days | Service Now | Please see the note for "glide_user_route" above, associated to web browser limits. | Third Party |
| glide_node_id_for_js | Session | Service Now | This cookie is used to identify the server instance that processes a user's requests. | Third Party |
| JSESSIONID | Session | Service Now | The 'JSESSIONID' cookie is a session cookie created by the application when the user first logs into the application and is created by the underlying server to maintain the session attributes of the user session. | Third Party |
| glide_user_session | Session | Service Now | This cookie is relevant when the “remember me” checkbox is enabled. | Third Party |
| BAYEUX_BROWSER | Session | Service Now | The cookie is used by the CometD library that we use in the platform. Bayeux protocol and CometD are used for long polling. Bayeux is a protocol for transporting asynchronous messages, primarily over HTTP. CometD is a scalable HTTP-based event routing bus that uses an AJAX push technology pattern known as Comet. It implements the Bayeux protocol. Long polling, also called Comet programming, allows the emulation of an information push from a server to a client. Similar to a normal poll, the client connects and requests information from the server. However, instead of sending an empty response if the information isn't available, the server holds the request and waits until the information is available (an event occurs). The server then sends a complete response to the client. The client then immediately re-requests information. The client continually maintains a connection to the server, so it's always waiting to receive a response. In the case of server timeouts, the client connects again and starts over. For transports based on HTTP (long-polling and callback-polling), CometD sends an HTTP cookie with the handshake response, marked as HttpOnly, called BAYEUX_BROWSER (see Configuring the Java Server). The CometD implementation, on the server, maps this cookie to a legit session id during the processing of the handshake request message. For every subsequent message, the browser will send the BAYEUX_BROWSER cookie to the server and the CometD implementation will retrieve the session id from legit sessions that have been mapped to the cookie, rather than from the message (where it could have been altered). |
Third Party |
| __CJ_g_startTime | 1 hour | Service Now | The "__CJ_g_startTime" cookie is set by certain UI pages to mark the loading start time of a page and does not contain any sensitive information. | Third Party |
| __CJ_g_tabs2_list or __CJ_tabs2_section | 1 hour | Service Now | There can be multiple cookies prefixed by __CJ_tabs2_list_* and __CJ__tabs2_section_*. These cookies are set by certain UI pages to mark the loading of various tabs & sections on a page and do not contain any sensitive information. The tabs2 cookies are set by the form's tabs code and read by it to restore the user's preferred section or related list tab on the next form load. Without them, a user will have their section and related list tabs reset to the first one on each form load. | Third Party |
| sn-chatbot-deviceid | Session | Service Now | This is a session management cookie related to chat functionality. It is a JavaScript-based UUID and does not contain any sensitive or user-identifiable information. | Third Party |
| glide_language | Session | Service Now | This cookie is set when the 'com.glide.sys.glide_language_cookie_enabled' property is enabled. The cookie contains a language ID used for the correct localization of guest users and does not contain sensitive information. | Third Party |
| glide_user_edge | Session | Service Now | This cookie contains information related to the user's time zone, date time format, and date format, which is utilized when Edge Encryption Proxy is enabled and does not contain sensitive information. This cookie is destroyed when the session is terminated. | Third Party |
| atf_session_cookie | Session | Service Now | This cookie is utilized by the Automated Testing Framework when the property 'sn_atf.runner.enabled' is set. It is used for rollback recording. | Third Party |
| glide_mfa_remembered_browser | 8 hours | Service Now | The duration for cookie expiration can be tuned with the “glide.authenticate.multifactor.browser.fingerprint.validity” system property. https://docs.servicenow.com/csh?topicname=mfa-properties.html |

Registration and Service Portal for registered users
If you wish to use our user area, prior registration is necessary. Upon contract closure, Intershop will register the authorized main contact persons of a customer upon request. As a standard user, you can register through the authorized main contact person of your employer. This main contact person will create and enable your account in our service portal for you. For contacts, we only collect the data required for registration and provision of the service. This includes your name, your business e-mail-address, telephone number and your company registration. In our Service Portal, you can create incident tickets and track their processing. For this purpose, we store your contact details in the portal, manage your authorization to access the system and link your contact details to the incident tickets and reports you create. We can also use the incident tickets for training purposes. Your employer's main contact person can deactivate your account in our portal via the self-service. After deactivation, your contact information will still be available in our system and may be linked to existing incident tickets, but it will no longer be possible to log in. If you wish to permanently unsubscribe from Service Portal (objection), please contact us. The processing is based on Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR in our legitimate interest to provide you with the services and information you can access after registration and to improve our services.
We store your account data until a deletion is requested or for up to 6 months after your account has been deactivated. We store incident tickets for up to 15 years. If you request deletion or become inactive, your account data will be removed from the tickets after 3 years.
Storage period
Unless we have already informed you in detail about the storage period, we delete personal data when they are no longer required for the aforementioned processing purposes and no legitimate interests or other (legal) reasons for storage prevent deletion.
