Privacy Statement
Data Protection
This privacy statement has been prepared to inform you, in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and Council of 27 April 2016 (General Data Protection Regulation – GDPR) and the Austrian Data Protection Act (DSG), on which legal basis we collect your personal data, how we use it, and what rights you have as a visitor to this website.
General Information on Data Processing
Protecting your personal data is of particular importance to us. Therefore, we process your data exclusively based on legal provisions. This privacy statement explains the type, scope, and purpose of processing personal data within our online offering and associated websites. It applies regardless of the device used (laptop, tablet, smartphone, etc.) or the domains/platforms through which our online services are accessed.
Collection of Personal Data
Terms such as “personal data” or “controller” are defined according to Article 4 of the GDPR.
Within our online services, we process personal data including usage data (e.g., visited pages of our website) and content data (e.g., information entered in forms).
The term “user” includes all categories of persons affected by data processing. This includes our partners, customers, suppliers, processors, prospective clients, and other visitors to our website.
The processing of your personal data is carried out in compliance with the relevant data protection regulations and only if a valid legal basis applies.
Legal Basis
According to Article 6(1) GDPR, the following legal bases may apply:
a) Consent of the data subject (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR)
b) Performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR)
c) Legal obligation (Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR)
d) Protection of vital interests (Art. 6(1)(d) GDPR)
e) Performance of a task carried out in the public interest (Art. 6(1)(e) GDPR)
f) Legitimate interests pursued by the controller or a third party (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR)
Transfer of Personal Data to Third Parties
Your data will only be shared with third parties when one of the above legal bases applies. Generally, we only share your data with third parties if you have given consent, if it is necessary for contract fulfillment, or if we are legally obliged to do so. Any transfer is limited to the recipients required for that purpose.
If we engage processors for services, we conclude data processing agreements with them, obliging them to take appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your data.
If third-party providers located in non-EU/EEA countries are involved, data transfers occur only if there is an EU adequacy decision, appropriate data protection safeguards, or your consent.
Fulfillment of Contractual and Pre-Contractual Obligations
We process contact data (e.g., name, address, contact details) and contract data (e.g., services used, payment information). These are necessary for contract execution or pre-contractual measures. Without these, we cannot complete a contract with you.
We also process usage data (e.g., visited pages) to continuously improve our website and handle inquiries.
Contacting Us
If you contact us via email or a contact form, your information will be processed for handling your inquiry and follow-up questions. The data will be stored in our customer relationship management (CRM) system for documentation and support purposes.
Automatic Data Storage
When you visit our website, certain information is automatically stored by the web server, including:
The URL of the page accessed
Browser type and version
Operating system used
Referrer URL (previously visited page)
Hostname and IP address of the accessing device
Date and time of access
These are stored as web server log files for about two weeks, after which they are deleted. We do not share these data but cannot rule out access in cases of unlawful behavior, as our legitimate interest lies in maintaining the website’s secure operation.
Storage of Personal Data
Personal data that you provide electronically (e.g., name, email address, or other information) are stored and used only for the stated purpose and with your IP address at the time of submission. These data are not shared with third parties. They serve only for communication and service fulfillment on this website.
Please note: Email transmission cannot be guaranteed as secure. We recommend not sending confidential data unencrypted by email.

If you believe that the processing of your data violates data protection law, you can lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority. In Austria, this is the Data Protection Authority (Datenschutzbehörde).
TLS Encryption via HTTPS
According to Article 25(1) GDPR, we use “https” for secure data transmission over the internet (privacy by design). TLS (Transport Layer Security) ensures encrypted, confidential data transfer. You can recognize secure transmission by the padlock symbol in your browser and the “https://” in our web address.
