Data Protection Declaration

 

Data Protection

We have drafted this data protection declaration to explain to you, in accordance with the requirements of the EU General Data Protection Regulation, which information we collect, how we use data, and what choices you as a visitor to this website have. Unfortunately, it is inherent in the nature of things that these explanations may sound very technical. However, in creating this document, we have made an effort to describe the most important aspects as simply and clearly as possible.

Automatic Data Storage

When you visit websites these days, certain information is automatically created and stored, as is the case with this website. When you visit our website, just like you are doing right now, our web server (the computer on which this website is stored) automatically stores data such as the IP address of your device, the addresses of the pages you visit, details about your browser (e.g., Chrome, Firefox, Edge, ...), and the date and time. We do not use this data and generally do not disclose it. However, we cannot rule out the possibility that this data may be viewed in the event of unlawful conduct.

Storage of Personal Data

Personal data that you electronically transmit to us on this website, such as your name, email address, address, or other personal information within the context of submitting a form or comments on the blog, will be used by us for the stated purpose, securely stored, and not disclosed to third parties along with the timestamp and IP address. We use your personal data solely for communication with those visitors who expressly request contact and for the processing of services and products offered on this website. We do not disclose your personal data without consent but cannot exclude the possibility of this data being viewed in the event of unlawful conduct. If you send us personal data via email – outside of this website – we cannot guarantee secure transmission and protection of your data. We recommend that you never transmit confidential data unencrypted via email.

Your Rights

You generally have the rights to information, correction, deletion, restriction, data portability, revocation, and objection. If you believe that the processing of your data violates data protection law or your data protection rights have been violated in any way, you can file a complaint with the supervisory authority. In Austria, this is the Data Protection Authority, whose website you can find at https://www.dsb.gv.at/.

TLS Encryption with https

We use https to transmit data securely over the Internet. By using TLS (Transport Layer Security), an encryption protocol for secure data transmission on the Internet, we can ensure the protection of confidential data. You can recognize the use of this data transmission security by the small lock symbol at the top left of the browser and the use of the https scheme as part of our internet address.

Cookies

Our website uses HTTP cookies to store user-specific data. A cookie is a small data packet that is exchanged between a web browser and a web server but is completely meaningless to them and only gains significance for the web application, such as an online shop, for example, the contents of a virtual shopping cart. There are two types of cookies: first-party cookies are created by our website, third-party cookies are created by other websites (e.g., Google Analytics). Three categories of cookies are distinguished: strictly necessary cookies to ensure basic website functions, functional cookies to ensure website performance, and targeting cookies to enhance the user experience. We use cookies to make our website more user-friendly. Some cookies remain stored on your end device until you delete them. They allow us to recognize your browser on your next visit. If you do not wish this, you can configure your browser to inform you about the setting of cookies and allow it only in individual cases. You can delete or deactivate cookies that are already on your computer at any time. The procedure for this varies depending on the browser. It is best to search for instructions on Google using the search term "delete cookies chrome" or "disable cookies chrome" for Chrome browser, or replace the word "chrome" with the name of your browser, e.g., edge, firefox, safari. If you generally do not allow us to use cookies, i.e., deactivate them via browser settings, some functions and pages may not work as expected.

Google Maps Privacy Policy

We use Google Maps from Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA) on our website. By using the features of this map, data is transferred to Google. You can read about which data is collected by Google and how this data is used on https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/.

Google Analytics Privacy Policy

On this website, we use Google Analytics from Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA) to statistically evaluate visitor data. Google Analytics uses targeting cookies for this purpose. For more information on terms of use and data protection, please visit http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/de.html or https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=de.

Pseudonymization

Our goal in accordance with the GDPR is to improve our offering and our website presence. As we value the privacy of our users, user data is pseudonymized. Data processing is carried out in accordance with the legal provisions of § 96 (3) TKG as well as Art. 6 (1) lit. a (consent) and/or f (legitimate interest) of the GDPR.

Deactivation of Data Collection by Google Analytics

Website visitors can prevent Google Analytics from using their data by using the browser add-on to deactivate Google Analytics JavaScript (ga.js, analytics.js, dc.js). You can prevent Google from collecting and processing data generated by the cookie about your use of the website by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de.

Google Analytics Data Processing Amendment

We have entered into a direct customer contract with Google for the use of Google Analytics by accepting the "Data Processing Amendment" in Google Analytics. Learn more about the Data Processing Amendment for Google Analytics here: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/3379636?hl=de&utm_id=ad

Google Analytics IP Anonymization

We have implemented IP address anonymization by Google Analytics on this website. This feature was developed by Google to allow this website to comply with applicable data protection laws and recommendations of local data protection authorities that prohibit the storage of complete IP addresses. The anonymization or masking of the IP takes place as soon as the IP addresses arrive in the Google Analytics data collection network and before any storage or processing of the data occurs. Learn more about IP anonymization at https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/2763052?hl=de.

Google Analytics Demographics and Interests Reports

We have enabled the advertising reporting features in Google Analytics. The reports on demographic characteristics and interests contain information about age, gender, and interests. This allows us to get a better picture of our users without being able to associate this data with individual persons. Learn more about advertising features at https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/3450482?hl=de_AT&utm_id=ad. You can opt out of the use of your Google Account activities and information under "Ad Settings" at https://adssettings.google.com/authenticated using a checkbox.
