WalkMe Data Collected White Paper

Data Protection

WalkMe complies with GDPR as a data processor CCPA as a Service Provider in the provision of WalkMe's services to its customers and can make its Data Processing Addendum (DPA) available for execution. In addition, we are devoted to helping our customers with their GDPR and CCPA compliance processes by providing robust privacy and security protections built into our services and contracts.
By default, WalkMe does not collect personally identifiable information (PII) other than IP addresses in logs for security purposes, end-users' approximate geolocation (country and city in which they are located) and masked IP addresses for the ongoing operation of the WalkMe system, and assigns collected metadata to anonymous random GUID. Moreover, WalkMe collects and transfers environment properties such as browser and OS, page URL, and title.

the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act set national standards for the privacy and security of electronically protected healthcare information.

WalkMe Data Protection Overview

WalkMe solutions offering

WalkMe offers pre-configured solutions in the Solutions Gallery that help customers display privacy notices and support compliance with their internal data protection requirements. These solutions enable customers to provide end users with choices regarding WalkMe data collection and processing, as described below.

WalkMe Privacy Statement solution
WalkMe offers a pre-configured WalkMe Privacy Statement solution in the Solutions Gallery, which includes two Smart Walk-Thrus. This solution helps customers display privacy notices and support compliance with their internal data protection policies.
By using this solution, customers can give users the option to opt out of WalkMe processing their personal data for analytics purposes. Please note the following important considerations:

  • Opt-out duration: When a user opts out, a cookie is saved in their browser to enforce this setting. The cookie is valid for one year. After it expires, the user must opt out again using the same opt-out option provided through the solution.
  • Domain-specific opt-out: The opt-out setting applies to each main website domain where the solution is implemented. If an application is accessed from multiple separate domains, users must opt out individually on each domain.
Note: This does not apply to embedded content such as cross-domain iframes, which inherit the opt-out setting from the main page.
  • Cookie clearing: If a user clears their browser cookies, the opt-out cookie is removed. To remain opted out, the user must complete the opt-out flow again using the solution.
  • Impact on Insights: When users opt out, WalkMe no longer collects their analytics data, which may result in limited Insights.
  • Deletion following opt-out: Since WalkMe acts as a processor on behalf of the controller (the customer), WalkMe may delete customer data only upon the customer's request. Accordingly, if a user opts out, the customer is responsible for requesting deletion of any personal data collected prior to the opt-out and for providing the relevant user identifier so WalkMe can assist with the deletion.

Session Playback Privacy Statement solution
WalkMe offers an additional pre-configured Session Playback Privacy Statement solution in the Solutions Gallery, which includes two Smart Walk-Thrus. This solution helps customers display Session Playback–specific privacy notices and support compliance with consent requirements applicable to Session Playback recording. By using this solution, customers can give users the option to opt in or opt out of Session Playback recording. Please note the following important considerations:

  • Consent behavior and segmentation: The popup content and behavior depend on the customer's Session Playback segmentation setup:
    • If Session Playback is enabled for the user by default, the user is given the option to opt out of recording.
    • If Session Playback is disabled for the user by default , the user is given the option to opt in to recording.
      • The user's choice determines whether Session Playback recording is enabled or disabled for that user starting from the next session.
  • Consent precedence: User consent collected through the Session Playback Privacy Statement takes precedence over the customer's Session Playback segmentation configuration for that user.
  • Consent duration and storage: When a user opts in or opts out, a cookie is saved in the user's browser to enforce the selected preference. The cookie is valid for one year. If the cookie expires or is deleted (for example, if the user clears browser cookies), the user may be required to provide consent again.
  • Relationship to the WalkMe Privacy Statement solution: If a user opts out through the WalkMe Privacy Statement solution, that opt-out applies to Session Playback as well. In such cases, the Session Playback Privacy Statement solution is not applicable.
