Section 3 — Tenant-Authorized Data Sources
The Excede Platform allows Customers to connect third-party business systems as data sources. These services are selected, connected, and authorized by the Customer via OAuth or API credentials. They are governed by the Customer's own agreements with the respective providers and are not sub-processors of Excede. Excede accesses these systems solely on the Customer's documented instructions to provide the Services.
Security controls applied by Excede to tenant integrations: OAuth tokens and API credentials are encrypted at rest in dedicated encrypted columns; permissions and OAuth scopes are limited to the product features the Customer enables (broader vendor permissions may require Customer admin consent); credentials are used server-side only; stored credentials are cleared when an integration is disconnected, with vendor-side OAuth revocation attempted where supported, and integration credential records are removed when a Customer workspace is deleted.
| Service | Typical Data Accessed | Connection Method |
|---|---|---|
| Microsoft 365 (Graph API) | Email, calendar, user directory | Customer-authorized OAuth |
| Zoho Corporation (Zoho Books / CRM) | Financial data, invoices, vendor records | Customer-authorized OAuth |
| Intuit QuickBooks Online (customer instance) | Financial data, invoices | Customer-authorized OAuth |
| BambooHR LLC | Employee roster, roles, employment data | Customer-authorized API key |
| Cake.com Inc. (Clockify) | Time entries, project codes | Customer-authorized API key |
| Toggl OÜ (Toggl Track) | Time entries, project codes | Customer-authorized API key |
Customer responsibility: Customer represents and warrants that it has all rights, consents, and authority necessary to connect third-party integrations to the Service. See DSA Section 3 (Customer Compliance Obligations).
Change Notification
Excede will provide 30 days' written notice (via email to subscribed customers) before adding any new sub-processor in Section 1. Changes to Section 3 reflect platform capability additions and do not require notice, as connection of any data source is at the Customer's sole election.
