Privacy Policy

Protecting your personal data is of particular importance to us.

Data Protection

We process your personal data exclusively on the basis of the applicable legal provisions, in particular the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Austrian Telecommunications Act (TKG 2003). In this Privacy Policy, we inform you about the most important aspects of how personal data is processed on our website.

Contacting Us

If you contact us via the contact form on our website or by email, the personal data you provide will be stored by us for six months for the purpose of processing your enquiry and in case of any follow-up questions. We will not pass on this data to third parties without your consent.

Data Storage

Please note that, for the purpose of processing contracts, we store the following information:

  • Name and address

  • Contact person

  • Email address

  • Telephone number

The data you provide is necessary for the fulfilment of contractual obligations and/or for carrying out pre-contractual and contractual measures. Your data will not be transferred to third parties, except to our tax advisor where necessary to fulfil our legal tax obligations.

In the event of a contractual relationship, all data arising from the contractual relationship will be stored until the expiry of the statutory tax retention period of seven years. Data processing is carried out on the basis of Article 6(1)(a) GDPR (consent) and/or Article 6(1)(b) GDPR (necessary for the performance of a contract).

SSL/TLS Encryption

To protect your transmitted data as effectively as possible, we use SSL/TLS encryption as the website operator. You can recognise encrypted connections by the prefix “https://” in your browser's address bar. Unencrypted connections are indicated by “http://”. A secure connection can also be identified by the closed padlock symbol displayed next to the website address.

Thanks to SSL/TLS encryption, data that you transmit to this website – for example, when submitting enquiries or logging in – cannot be read by third parties during transmission.

Cookies

Our website uses so-called cookies. These are small text files that are stored on your device using your browser. Cookies do not cause any damage to your device.

We use cookies to make our website more user-friendly. Some cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. They enable us to recognise your browser when you return to our website.

If you do not wish to use cookies, you can configure your browser to notify you when cookies are being set and allow them only on a case-by-case basis.

Please note that disabling cookies may limit the functionality of our website.

Access Data

The website operator or hosting provider collects data about access to the website and stores this information in so-called server log files. The following data may be recorded:

  • Website visited

  • Time of access

  • Amount of data transmitted in bytes

  • Source/referrer from which you accessed the website

  • Browser used

  • Operating system used

  • IP address used

The collected data is used solely for statistical evaluation and to improve the website. However, the website operator reserves the right to subsequently review server log files if there are specific indications of unlawful use.

Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, to analyse how users interact with the website. Google Analytics uses cookies – text files that are stored on your device. The information generated by the cookies is generally transmitted to and stored on a Google server.

IP anonymisation is enabled on this website. The IP addresses of users within the European Union and the European Economic Area are shortened, meaning that the IP address can no longer be directly associated with a specific person.

Based on the information collected, Google analyses website usage and website activity and provides services related to website and internet usage.

You can prevent cookies from being stored on your device by changing the relevant settings in your browser. Please note, however, that disabling cookies may mean that not all functions of this website are available without restrictions.

Browser Add-on for Disabling Google Analytics

You can also prevent Google Analytics from collecting and processing information generated by cookies, including your IP address, by installing an appropriate browser add-on.

Alternatively, you can configure your browser to prevent cookies from being stored. We have concluded the necessary data processing agreement with the service provider.

Your Rights

You generally have the right to access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability, withdrawal of consent and objection.

If you believe that the processing of your personal data violates applicable data protection law, or that your data protection rights have otherwise been infringed, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority.

In Austria, the competent authority is the Austrian Data Protection Authority (Datenschutzbehörde).
