WHAT DATA IS PROCESSED FOR WHAT PURPOSE?
GENERAL PURPOSE OF PROCESSING PERSONAL DATA
Our website is hosted by ovh.com. The purpose of the processing is the operation of a website with information about our company, a marketing/innovation research and consulting agency, as well as the presentation and offer of services in this area. We process personal data to fulfil contractual obligations towards our customers and interested parties.
Personal data is collected, processed and used exclusively for the stated purpose.
With regard to the visit of websites, we assume that a personal reference can always exist by means of IP addresses. As a result, we must inform you accordingly about the data processing of the web server and the applications on the web server hosted by ovh.com. In order for the pages to be displayed in your browser, the IP address of the device you are using must be processed. In addition, there is further information about the browser of your terminal device.
In accordance with the current data protection law test, we are obliged to protect our IT system, which processes personal data. For this purpose, ovh.com record:
- IP address of the calling computer
- Operating system of the calling computer
- Browser version of the calling computer
- URL of the call
- Date and time of retrieval
IP address and log files are deleted as soon as they are no longer required to guarantee the security of our systems. We will then no longer be able to establish a personal reference from the remaining data. The data is used to correct errors on the website.
The legal basis for this data processing is Art. 6, 1f, GDPR. Our “interest” in the sense of Art. 6, 1 lit. f) is the operation of this website, the implementation of the protection goals of confidentiality and the integrity and availability of data.

EMAIL INQUIRIES
You are free to contact us by e-mail or telephone, the user’s personal data transmitted by e-mail will be stored.
In this context, the data will not be passed on to third parties. The data is used exclusively for processing the communication/order request.
These e-mails are stored like commercial letters and in accordance with the legal retention periods. This information is protected against unauthorized access by third parties, but please note that unencrypted e-mails sent via the internet are not sufficiently protected against unauthorized access by third parties.
The legal basis for the processing of data transmitted in the course of sending an e-mail is Art. 6, 1f GDPR – the legitimate interest is communication with customers and interested parties. If the e-mail contact is aimed at the conclusion of a contract, the legal basis is Art. 6, 1b GDPR (contract/pre-contractual measure).
DURATION OF DATA STORAGE
Requests received via the form on our website or by e-mail are usually stored in our system. The system is regularly checked to see whether data can be deleted. Should data no longer be necessary in the context of a customer or prospective customer relationship or should a conflicting interest of the customer prevail, we will delete the concerned personal data, provided that this does not conflict with statutory retention obligations.
Irrespective of this, we always ask you for permission to use your e-mail address for general notifications such as a newsletter sent by e-mail. This consent is voluntary and completely independent of your request.
NEWSLETTER

DOUBLE-OPT-IN AND LOGGING

The registration for our free newsletter happens via a so-called double opt-in procedure. This means that after registration you will receive an e-mail asking you to confirm your registration. This confirmation is necessary so that no one can log in with another person’s e-mail address.
These registrations for the newsletter are logged in order to be able to prove the registration process according to the legal requirements. This includes the storage of the login and confirmation time, as well as the IP address.
The legal basis for this data processing is Art. 6, 1f GDPR in conjunction with § 7 UWG. Our “interest” in the sense of Art. 6, 1f GDPR is the administration and dispatch of our news and release notes.
