GENERAL INFORMATION COLLECTED DURING WEBSITE VISITS
Type and Purpose When you access our website without registering or submitting information, general data is collected automatically via server log files. This may include your web browser type, operating system, your Internet service provider’s domain name, and your IP address.
This information is processed for:
- Ensuring a reliable and unproblematic website connection
- Ensuring seamless use of our website
- Analysis of system security and stability
- Additional administrative purposes
We do not use this data to draw conclusions about your identity. Where necessary, it may be statistically analysed to optimise our website and its underlying technology.
Legal Basis Processing occurs pursuant to Art. 6 Para. 1 (f) GDPR, based on our legitimate interest in improving the stability and functionality of our website.
Service Providers Technical service providers who assist in the operation and maintenance of our website may access this data in their role as processors. These providers are bound by strict data processing agreements and may not use data for any other purpose.
Retention Period Data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required for its original purpose — generally when the respective session has ended.
COMMENTARY FUNCTION
Type and Purpose When users leave comments on our website, the time of creation and the chosen username are saved. This is a security measure, as we may bear legal responsibility for illegal content published on our website.
Legal Basis Processing of comment data is based on legitimate interest (Art. 6 Para. 1 (a) GDPR). Our aim is to provide a straightforward way to interact with our content.
Retention Period Data is deleted as soon as it is no longer needed — generally when communication with the user has concluded and the relevant matter is resolved.
Voluntary Provision Providing your personal data for comments is entirely voluntary. Without it, we cannot guarantee access to the commentary function.
NEWSLETTER
Type and Purpose Your data will be used exclusively to send you the newsletter you subscribed to via email. We request your name so we can address you personally and identify you when you exercise your data subject rights. Providing your email address is sufficient to receive the newsletter. Subscribers may also receive email notifications about relevant service changes or technical matters.
We use a double opt-in procedure to verify that a registration is made by the actual email address owner. We log the subscription request, the sending of a confirmation email, and the receipt of the confirming reply. No additional data is collected.
Legal Basis Based on your express consent (Art. 6 Para. 1 (a) GDPR), we send our newsletter to your specified email address.
Withdrawal of Consent You may withdraw consent to receive the newsletter at any time. Every newsletter contains an unsubscribe link, and you may also contact us directly using the details at the end of this policy.
Retention Period Data is only processed while corresponding consent is active and will be deleted thereafter.
Note: Newsletter and email subscriptions are entirely separate from text messaging services. Text messaging originator opt-in data and consent are not used for newsletter purposes and will not be passed to any parties outside of aggregators and providers of the Text Message services.
HOW WE USE YOUR INFORMATION
We use the information we collect to:
- Operate and maintain our website
- Send newsletters and service-related communications to subscribed users
- Analyse website usage to improve our services
- Ensure the security and stability of our systems
- Comply with legal obligations
- Support subcontractors who assist in delivering our services (e.g., customer service, hosting, technical support)
