Data transfer to third countries

We only transfer or process data to countries outside the EU (third countries) if you consent to this processing, if this is required by law or contractually necessary and in any case only to the extent that this is generally permitted. Processing personal data in third countries such as the U.S., where many software vendors offer services and have their server locations, may mean that personal data is processed and stored in unexpected ways.

We explicitly point out that according to the opinion of the European Court of Justice, there is currently no adequate level of protection for data transfers to the USA. Data processing by US services (such as Google Analytics) may result in data not being processed and stored anonymously, where applicable. Furthermore, US government authorities may be able to access individual data. In addition, it may happen that collected data is linked with data from other services of the same provider, if you have a corresponding user account. Where possible, we try to use server locations within the EU, if this is offered.

Communication

If you contact us and communicate by telephone, e-mail or online form, personal data may be processed.

The data is processed for the purpose of handling and processing your question and the related business transaction. The data will be deleted as soon as the case has been closed and legal requirements allow it.

 

Persons concerned

All those who seek contact with us via the communication channels provided by us are affected by the processes.

 

Telephone

When you call us, the call data is stored pseudonymously on the respective terminal device and with the telecommunications provider used. In addition, data such as name and telephone number may subsequently be sent by e-mail and stored for the purpose of responding to your inquiry. The data is deleted as soon as the business case has been closed and legal requirements permit.

 

E-mail

If you communicate with us by e-mail, data may be stored on the respective end device (computer, laptop, smartphone…) and data is stored on the e-mail server. The data is deleted as soon as the business case has been terminated and legal requirements allow it.

 

Online forms

If you communicate with us using online forms, data is stored on our web server and may be forwarded to an e-mail address of ours. The data will be deleted as soon as the case has been closed and legal requirements allow it.

 

Legal basis

The processing of data is based on the following legal bases:

  • 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO (consent): You give us your consent to store and further use for purposes related to the business case;
  • 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO (contract): there is a need for the performance of a contract with you or a processor or we need to process the data for pre-contractual activities;
  • 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO (Legitimate Interests): we would like to process customer inquiries and conduct business communications in a professional manner. This requires certain technical facilities such as email programs, exchange servers and mobile operators.

Cookies

Our website uses cookies to store user-specific data. Cookies store certain user data about you, such as language or personal page settings. Each cookie must be evaluated individually, as each cookie stores different data. Also, the expiration time of a cookie varies from a few minutes to a few years.

 

Purpose of processing via cookies

The purpose depends on the cookie.

 

Storage duration of cookies

The storage period depends on the cookie and is specified further below. Some cookies are deleted after less than an hour, others can remain stored on a remain stored on a computer for several years.

You can also influence the storage period yourself. You can manually delete all cookies at any time via your browser (see also “Right of objection” below). Furthermore, cookies that are based on consent will be deleted at the latest after revocation of your consent, whereby the legality of the storage remains unaffected until then.

If you generally do not want cookies, you can set up your browser so that it always informs you when a cookie is to be set. In this way, you can decide for each individual cookie whether you allow the cookie or not. The procedure varies depending on the browser.

Legal basis

The “Cookie Guidelines” have been in place since 2009. This states that the storage of cookies requires your consent (Article 6 (1) lit. a DSGVO). In Austria, however, this directive was implemented in Section 96 (3) of the Telecommunications Act (TKG). In Germany, this directive was largely implemented in Section 15 (3) of the Telemedia Act (TMG) for cookies that are necessary, even if no consent is given, legitimate interests exist (Article 6 (1) (f) DSGVO). Insofar as cookies that are not necessary are used, this only occurs in the case of your consent. The legal basis in this respect is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO.

Web Analytics

We use software on our website to evaluate the behavior of website visitors, called web analytics for short. This involves the collection of data that is stored, managed, and processed by the respective analytic tool provider (also called tracking tool).

 

What data is processed?

Exactly what data is stored depends on the analytic tools used. If you agreed that location data may also be collected, these may also be processed by the web analytic tool provider. In addition, your IP address will also be stored.

How long the respective data is stored depends on the provider. Some cookies only store data for a few minutes or until you leave the website again, other cookies can store data for several years.

 

Duration of data processing

In general, personal data is only processed for as long as is necessary for the provision of our services and products.

 

Right of objection

You have the right and the possibility to revoke your consent to the use of cookies or third-party providers at any time. You can prevent data collection by cookies by managing, deactivating, or deleting cookies in your browser.

       

Legal basis

The use of web analytics requires your consent. According to Art. 6 (1) lit. a DSGVO (consent), this consent constitutes the legal basis for the processing of personal data, as may occur during the collection by web analytics tools.

In addition to consent, there is a legitimate interest on our part to analyze the behavior of website visitors and thus to improve our offer technically and economically. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO (Legitimate Interests). We only use the tools insofar as you have given your consent.

Firebase privacy policy

We use Firebase, an analysis and monitoring tool, on our website. The service provider is the American company Google Inc. For the European area, the company Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street Dublin 4, Ireland) is responsible for all Google services.

Firebase also processes data in the USA, among other places. We would like to point out that according to the opinion of the European Court of Justice, there is currently no adequate level of protection for the transfer of data to the USA. This may be associated with various risks to the lawfulness and security of data processing.

As a basis for data processing with recipients located in third countries (outside the European Union, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, i.e., the USA) or a data transfer there, Firebase uses standard contractual clauses approved by the EU Commission (Art. 46. para. 2 and 3 DSGVO). These clauses oblige Firebase to comply with the EU level of data protection when processing relevant data outside the EU.

To learn more about the data processed through the use of Firebase, please see the Privacy Policy at https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en-US.

Facebook Privacy Policy

We use selected tools from Facebook on our website. Facebook is a social media network owned by Facebook Ireland Ltd, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2 Ireland. With the help of these tools, we can offer you and users who are interested in our products and services the best possible offer.

If data is collected from you and forwarded via our embedded Facebook elements, both we and Facebook Ireland Ltd. are responsible for this. Facebook is solely responsible for the further processing of this data. Our joint obligations are set forth in a publicly available agreement at https://www.facebook.com/legal/controller_addendum.

Among many other products, Facebook also offers the so-called “Facebook Business Tools”. This is the official name of Facebook.

Among them are:

  • Facebook Pixel
  • social plug-ins (e.g., “Like” or “Share” button)
  • Facebook Login
  • account kit
  • APIs (programming interface)
  • SDKs (collection of programming tools)
  • Platform integrations
  • plugins
  • Codes
  • specifications
  • documentations
  • Technologies and services

Through these tools, Facebook extends services and can obtain information about user activity outside of Facebook.

    

What data does Facebook tools store?

By using individual Facebook tools, personal data (customer data) may be sent to Facebook. Depending on the tools used, customer data such as name, address, phone number and IP address may be sent. Facebook uses this information to match the data with the data it itself has from you (if you are a Facebook member). Before customer data is sent to Facebook, a process known as “hashing” takes place. This also serves to encrypt data.

In addition to contact data, “event data” is also transmitted. Event data” refers to the information that we receive about you on our website. Facebook does not share the information it receives with third parties unless it has explicit permission or is legally required to do so. “Event data” may also be associated with contact information. This allows Facebook to offer better personalized advertising.

To deliver ads in an optimized manner, Facebook only uses Event Data when it has been aggregated with other data (collected by Facebook in other ways). Facebook also uses this Event Data for security, privacy, development, and research purposes. Much of this data is transferred to Facebook via cookies. General information about Facebook’s use of cookies is also available at https://www.facebook.com/policies/cookies.

 

How long and where is the data stored?

Generally, Facebook stores data until it is no longer needed for its own services and Facebook products. Customer data is deleted within 48 hours after it has been compared with your own user data.

 

How can I delete my data or prevent data storage?

In accordance with the Basic Data Protection Regulation, you have the right to information, correction, transferability, and deletion of your data. A complete deletion of the data only occurs if you delete your Facebook account completely.

The storage of data that Facebook receives via our site is done, among other things, via cookies. In your browser, you can disable, delete, or manage individual or all cookies. Depending on which browser you use, this works in different ways.

If you generally do not want cookies, you can set up your browser so that it always informs you when a cookie is to be set.

Legal basis

If you have consented that data from you can be processed and stored by integrated Facebook tools, this consent is considered the legal basis for data processing (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO). In principle, your data will also be stored and processed based on our legitimate interest (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO) in fast and good communication with you or other customers and business partners. Nevertheless, we only use the tools insofar as you have given your consent. Most social media platforms also set cookies in your browser to store data. That is why we recommend that you view Facebook’s privacy policy or cookie policy.

Facebook also processes data in the USA, among other places. We would like to point out that according to the opinion of the European Court of Justice, there is currently no adequate level of protection for the transfer of data to the USA. This may be associated with various risks to the legality and security of data processing.

Facebook uses approved standard contractual clauses (Art. 46. para. 2 and 3 DSGVO) as the basis for data processing at recipients located in third countries (outside the European Union, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, i.e., in the USA) or a data transfer there. These clauses oblige Facebook to comply with the EU level of data protection when processing relevant data outside the EU.
