We process data that is provided to us by various persons through their own disclosures, for example in the context of an inquiry by email or for the initiation and conclusion of a contract or business relationship.

1.3 Data Processing pursuant to Art. 14 GDPR

In addition, we also process data that is not provided directly by the data subject themselves. This is the case, for example, when executive bodies provide us with the names and contact details of their employees in the context of projects or business relationships.

The following data of prospective customers is processed: company, name of the contact person, and professional contact and address details.

The following data of suppliers and business partners is processed: company, names of contact persons, professional address and contact details, bank details, and contract data.

At the request of authors, we publish their names. As soon as the use of the works is discontinued, the personal data is automatically deleted.

1.5 Legal Bases

The legal bases for data processing are:

Consent, for example when processing images, pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR
Contract initiation and performance pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR
Legal obligations, for example statutory retention and documentation obligations, publication obligations pursuant to copyright law, pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR
Legitimate interests of our company, for example the use of software, pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR

For each data processing activity described below, we will separately inform you about the legal basis and the purpose of the processing.

1.6 Transfer of Data

Data is transferred exclusively for the purpose of contract performance pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR in order to provide you with our services.

Transfer within the group: The personal data collected is transferred, where necessary, within the group to parent and subsidiary companies. This is necessary because various group companies provide IT services, among other things. The transfer takes place on the basis of internally concluded contracts.

Transfer to processors: We cooperate with processors to whom personal data is transferred in order to provide services efficiently. These include companies that perform tasks such as contract fulfilment, payment processing, account management, and IT services.

Other transfers: In certain cases, such as legal obligations or in the context of a legal dispute, personal data may be disclosed to authorities or lawyers.

1.7 Retention / Deletion / Anonymisation of Data

Contractual retention obligations: After the termination of a contractual relationship or after the expiry of contractually agreed periods, personal data is deleted or anonymised as soon as there are no statutory retention obligations preventing this.

Withdrawal of consent: If consent to the processing of personal data is withdrawn, the data is deleted or anonymised unless there is another legal basis for the processing.

Statutory retention obligations: The controller is subject to various statutory retention obligations. After the expiry of these statutory retention obligations, personal data is deleted or anonymised. It may occur that personal data must be retained for legal reasons despite the withdrawal of consent or the expiry of contractually agreed periods and is deleted only at a later point in time, after expiry of the respective statutory periods. The following EU regulations and laws to be observed by the controller are listed below, without claiming to be absolutely complete:

Federal Fiscal Code (BAO)
Austrian Commercial Code (UGB)
Trade Regulation Act (GewO)

When you visit our website, cookies are stored on your device. Cookies are small text files that are assigned to the browser you use and stored on your hard drive. They enable us or third-party providers to collect certain information. Cookies cannot execute programs or transmit viruses to your computer.

The information contained in cookies is used, for example, to determine whether you are logged in, what data you have already entered, or to recognise you as a user when a connection is established between our web server and your browser.

We distinguish between technical cookies, which serve exclusively to ensure the operation of a website, and cookies requiring consent, which are set by us or by third-party providers for the purposes of statistical analysis, tracking, or advertising/marketing.

Legal basis: Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR (legitimate interest; for technical cookies), Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR (consent; for all other cookies)

6.3 Borlabs Cookie Consent Management

Our website uses the consent management tool “Borlabs Cookie” provided by Borlabs GmbH, Hamburger Str. 11, 22083 Hamburg, Germany.

The service sets a technically necessary cookie, borlabs-cookie, which is used to store your cookie consent. The consent management tool records and stores the selection of cookies made by the respective user of our website. The express consent of the website visitor ensures that statistical and marketing cookies are set only after consent has been given.

7 Data Processing in Connection with Google Services

7.1 Google AdSense

Our website uses Google AdSense, a service for integrating advertisements. Google AdSense enables us to generate revenue by displaying advertisements on our website. The advertisements are automatically selected by Google based on the content of our website and the interests of visitors.

Through the use of Google AdSense, various data is collected, including cookies, web beacons, and usage data. Web beacons are invisible graphics that also collect information about the use of our website. Usage data includes information about the websites visited, the advertisements clicked, the IP address, the browser type, and language settings.

The collected data is used to measure the effectiveness of the advertisements, optimise the advertising content, and create reports on website activities. This information may also be combined with other data that Google has collected about you.

By making the appropriate settings in your internet browser, you can prevent the aforementioned cookies from being stored on your PC. However, this may mean that the content of this website can no longer be used to the same extent. By using this website, you consent to the processing of the data collected about you by Google in the manner and for the purpose described above.

Legal basis: Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR (consent)

7.2 Google Ads Conversion Tracking

This website uses Google Conversion Tracking. In this process, Google Ads places a cookie on your computer if you accessed our website via a Google advertisement. These cookies expire after 30 days and are not used for personal identification. The information obtained using the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for us. We learn the total number of users who clicked on our advertisement and were redirected to a page provided with a conversion tracking tag. However, we do not receive any information that allows users to be personally identified. If you do not wish to participate in the tracking process, you can also reject the setting of the cookie required for this, for example by configuring your browser to generally deactivate the automatic setting of cookies. You can also deactivate cookies for conversion tracking by setting your browser to block cookies from the domain “www.googleadservices.com”.

When you use SSL search, Google’s encrypted search function, the search terms are usually not sent as part of the URL in the referrer URL. However, there are some exceptions, for example if you use certain less common browsers. Further information on SSL search is available here:
https://support.google.com/websearch/answer/173733?hl=de

Search queries or information in the referrer URL may, under certain circumstances, also be viewed via Google Analytics or an Application Programming Interface (API). In addition, advertisers may receive information about the exact search terms that triggered a click on an advertisement.

For more details, please refer to Google’s FAQ:
https://policies.google.com/faq?hl=de

Legal basis: Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR (consent)

7.3 Google Analytics

On our website, we use Google Analytics, a tool that enables us to analyse how our website is used. With Google Analytics, we can see how many people visit our website and how long they stay.

This website uses the “activation of IP anonymisation” function, meaning that Google Analytics has been extended by the code “gat._anonymizeIp();” in order to ensure anonymised collection of IP addresses, known as IP masking. As a result, your IP address is shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area before transmission. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there.

Google uses the collected information to analyse your use of the website, create reports on website activity, and provide further services relating to website use.

Your IP address transmitted by your browser to Google Analytics is not combined with other Google data. However, Google may disclose this information to third parties if legally required to do so or if third parties process this data on behalf of Google.

You can prevent cookies from being stored on your computer by making the appropriate settings in your browser. Please note, however, that in this case you may not be able to use all functions of our website in full.

Legal basis: Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR (consent)

7.4 Google Tag Manager

We use Google Tag Manager on our website, which enables us to integrate and manage website tags such as tracking codes or conversion pixels. It collects data on the website and forwards it to connected analysis tools, which store and evaluate this data. Although Google Tag Manager collects data, for example IP addresses, it does not store this data and does not have access to it. It merely acts as an interface between the website and the analysis software.

More detailed information is available here:
https://www.google.com/intl/de/tagmanager/faq.html

Legal basis: Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR (consent)
