General Data Protection
Data protection
We have written this data protection policy to explain to you, in accordance with the provisions of the EU General Data Protection Regulation, what kind of information we collect, how we use the collected data and which options you have as a visitor to this website.
Unfortunately, it is in the nature of things that these explanations sound very technical, but we try to describe the most important things in a simple and clear manner.
Automatic storage of data
When you visit websites today, certain information is automatically created and stored, likewise on this website.
If you visit our website as it is now, our web server (computer where this website is stored) automatically saves data such as the IP address of your device, the addresses of the visited subpages, details of your browser (eg. Chrome, Firefox, Edge, ...) as wells as date and time. We do not use this information and usually do not disclose it, but we can not rule out that it will be seen in the event of unlawful behavior.
Storage of personal data
Personal data that you submit electronically to us on this website, such as name, e-mail address, address or other personal information in the course of submitting a form or comments in the blog, will be employed by us along with the time and the IP address. Addresses are used only for the stated purpose, kept safe and not disclosed to third parties.
We only use your personal data for communication with those visitors who expressly request contact, also with respect to any handling of services and products offered on this website. We will not disclose your personal information without consent, but we can not rule out that this information will be seen in the event of unlawful behavior.
If you send personal information by e-mail to us - thus away from this website - we can not guarantee secure transmission and protection of your data. We recommend that you never send confidential data unencrypted by e-mail.
Your rights
Basically, you have the rights to information, correction, deletion, restriction, data portability, revocation and opposition. If you believe that the handling of your data violates data protection law or if your data protection claims have otherwise been violated in any way, you may complain to the supervisory authority. In Austria, this is the Data Protection Authority whose websites you can find at https://www.data-protection-authority.gv.at/.
TLS encryption with https
We use https to transfer data bugproof and securely on the Internet. By using TLS (Transport Layer Security), an encryption protocol for secure data transmission over the Internet, we are able to ensure the protection of confidential data. You recognize the use of this security of data transfer at the small lock symbol in the upper left corner 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 which is exchanged between the web browser and the web server, but is completely meaningless to the user and only useful for the web application, eg. an online store, with respect to the contents of a virtual shopping cart. There are two types of cookies: First-party cookies are created by our website, and third-party cookies are created by other websites (eg. Google Analytics). There are three categories of cookies: essential cookies to ensure basic functionality of the website, functional cookies to ensure website performance and targeted cookies to improve the user experience. We use cookies to make our website more user-friendly. Some cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. They allow us to recognize your browser on your next visit. If you do not want this, you may set up your browser in a way, that it informs you about the setting of cookies and you are then able to set them in individual cases. You can always delete cookies that are already located on your computer or disable them. The procedure for doing this varies according to browsers, we advise to look for the instructions in Google for the term "delete cookies Chrome" or "disable cookies Chrome" in case of a Chrome browser or exchange the word "Chrome" for the name of your browser, eg. Edge, Firefox, Safari. If you generally do not allow us to use cookies, this means disabling them via browser setting, some features and pages may not work as expected.
