We process personal data in compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG), and the Telecommunications and Telemedia Data Protection Act (TDDDG). Processing only takes place if there is legal permission, a contractual requirement, or your consent.
As part of our business activities, personal data is also processed by external service providers on our behalf. This includes, in particular, Mpire GmbH, which handles various commercial processes for us. Processing is carried out on the basis of a data processing agreement in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR.
We process data in order to:
We process personal data on the basis of the GDPR. Depending on the purpose of the processing, different legal bases may apply. In addition to the GDPR, national data protection laws (e.g., the BDSG in Germany, TDDDG) may also be relevant.
The GDPR asserts the following legal bases:
In addition, the Telecommunications Digital Services Data Protection Act (TDDDG) applies in Germany. This law primarily regulates the protection of your privacy when using online offers, apps, and digital services. This includes, in particular:
In other words, the TDDDG ensures that we need your consent before we store or read data on your device, e.g. in the case of cookies or similar technologies – unless this data is technically necessary for our website to function at all.
We protect personal data in accordance with legal requirements, taking into account the current state of technology, implementation costs, the scope and purpose of processing, and the likelihood and severity of possible risks to the rights and freedoms of data subjects.
We use SSL or TLS encryption to protect the data you transmit to us online. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the string https:// and the lock symbol in the address bar of your browser.
We only disclose your personal data to external parties if this is permitted by law, if you have given your consent, or if it is necessary for the fulfillment of a contract.
Possible recipients include, for example:
We do not pass on your data to third parties for direct marketing purposes.
We use order processors for some technical information and communication services. These may be companies or other entities that process personal data on our behalf. We conclude contracts with all order processors in accordance with Art. 28 (3) GDPR.
In certain cases, we are legally obliged to disclose personal data – for example, in response to requests from authorities, on the basis of a court order, or in the context of legal retention and documentation obligations. In such cases, we carefully check whether the request is justified and only disclose the necessary data.
Within our organization, personal data is only disclosed to those departments that need it to perform their tasks. This is done on the basis of legal regulations, contractual obligations, or legitimate interests.
Personal data will only be transferred to or processed in countries outside the EU/EEA (so-called third countries) if:
Legal basis: Articles 44–49 GDPR. Further information on the currently recognized third countries and the EU standard contractual clauses can be found at the EU Commission: https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/law-topic/data-protection/international-dimension-data-protection_de
We only store personal data for as long as is legally permitted or until you revoke your consent to processing. If the purpose for which we collected the data no longer applies or if there is no longer a legal basis for storing it, we will delete it.
If certain data must be retained for other reasons—for example, because legal obligations require it or because it is needed to enforce, exercise, or defend legal claims—we will restrict processing to this purpose. In this case, the data will be blocked and not used for other purposes.
When you contact us, for example via our contact form, by email, phone, or social media, we process your information in order to respond to your request and take all necessary steps. Depending on the nature of your inquiry, it may be processed by Mpire GmbH, which handles marketing, service, and administrative processes on our behalf.
If you use our contact form, we will process the data you enter solely for the purpose of processing your request. Mandatory fields are marked as such so that we can contact you specifically.
Your information will be transmitted in encrypted form (SSL/TLS). If we use additional tools for the form, e.g., reCAPTCHA for spam protection, this will only be done with your consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR in conjunction with § 25 (1) TDDDG.
If you visit us at our premises—for example, as a customer, partner, applicant, supplier, tradesman, or for any other business reason—please first report to our reception desk or gatekeeper.
We usually collect the following personal data: Name Company or organization, if applicable Name of your contact person at our company Date and time of your visit
We process this data exclusively for the purpose of controlling access to our premises, ensuring security measures, and escorting you to your contact person.
We use video surveillance in certain areas of our company premises and at the entrances. The recordings are used exclusively to ensure the protection of our employees, visitors, and our property, and to enable clarification in the event of security-related incidents.
The processing is based on our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR in maintaining the security of our company location, protecting our property, and preventing and investigating criminal offenses.
Only authorized internal departments have access to recordings. Data will only be passed to third parties if this is necessary to enforce legal claims or to investigate criminal offenses (e.g., to law enforcement authorities).
Video recordings are generally deleted after 72 hours at the latest, unless they need to be evaluated in connection with a specific incident. Visitor data is only stored for as long as is necessary for the stated purpose and is then deleted, unless there are legal storage obligations.
If you have given us your consent or if we are permitted to contact you within the scope of the legal possibilities, we will also use your contact details for advertising information, for example by email, telephone, post, or in rare cases by fax.
You can revoke your consent at any time or object to receiving advertising at any time. After that, you will no longer receive any advertising from us.
To be able to prove in the event of a dispute that you did in fact give your consent, we may store the necessary data for up to three years. During this time, it will only be used for this purpose and will be deleted afterwards. If you wish, we will also delete it earlier. In this case, we would need confirmation from you that you had given your consent.
We have outsourced our application management and other commercial processes to Mpire GmbH, Manfred-von-Ardenne-Allee 33, 71522 Backnang, Germany. For applications, this means that your documents will be sent directly to Mpire GmbH, where they will be processed in consultation with us. You can find Mpire GmbH’s privacy policy here.
Mpire GmbH uses the Personio platform, an external service provider (Personio SE & Co. KG, Seidlstraße 3, 80335 Munich), for applicant management. Personio processes your application data on our behalf in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR and hosts it on servers within the EU. More information: Service provider’s privacy policy.
As part of our business activities, we process personal data from customers, interested parties, partners, suppliers, service providers, and other business partners. We do this in order to initiate or fulfill contracts, organize cooperation, comply with legal obligations, and protect our legitimate interests – always in accordance with applicable data protection laws. If we use third-party providers or platforms to provide our services, the terms and conditions and privacy policies of the respective third-party providers or platforms apply to the relationship between users and providers.
Our accounting and controlling are carried out by Mpire GmbH on our behalf. In doing so, personal data such as billing addresses, bank details, transaction data, and payment information are processed to the extent necessary to fulfill our legal and contractual obligations.
If you work with us as a supplier, service provider, or business partner, we process your personal data to fulfill our contractual agreements, organize our collaboration, and comply with legal requirements. The initiation, management, and processing of orders with suppliers and partners is carried out both by us and on our behalf by Mpire GmbH. The personal data necessary for this purpose is processed.
This includes, for example:
We analyze business transactions, contracts, inquiries, and usage data to identify market trends, improve our services, and evaluate marketing measures. We evaluate data in a pseudonymized or anonymized form wherever possible. Results are not passed on to third parties unless they are anonymous overall analyses.
When participating in training or education programs, we process personal data for the purposes of organization, implementation, and, if necessary, performance evaluation. Where necessary, we transfer data to external service providers or authorities, always in compliance with legal requirements.
We process our customers’ personal data as required for quotations, implementation, and billing. If we gain access to third-party data (e.g., employees or end customers) in the process, processing is carried out in accordance with contractual and legal provisions.
Our IT systems and internal applications are operated and maintained by Mpire GmbH. Access to personal data may occur in the context of maintenance, support, or administration. This occurs exclusively in accordance with data protection regulations.
Our website is operated on servers belonging to IONOS SE. In order to provide a stable, secure, and user-friendly online service, we use various hosting services. These include computing capacity, storage space, security functions, technical support, email hosting, and the provision of infrastructure and platform services.
Every time our website is accessed, so-called server log files are automatically collected. These include, among other things: IP address and provider Browser type and version Operating system Referrer URL (previously visited page) Date, time, and duration of access Content or files accessed
The log files are used to ward off attacks (e.g., DDoS), optimize loading times, fix errors, and ensure secure operation. They are usually stored for a maximum of 30 days and then deleted or anonymized—unless they are needed for a specific security or evidence purpose for a longer period.
Email is also processed (sending, receiving, and storage) as part of the hosting services. This involves data such as sender and recipient addresses, provider information, and content. Please note: Emails are generally not end-to-end encrypted on the internet. They are usually encrypted during transport, but not necessarily on all servers.
We use a Content Delivery Network (CDN) to deliver large files (e.g., images, scripts) more quickly. This allows content to be delivered to you more efficiently from regionally distributed servers.
Processing is based on our legitimate interests in the secure, efficient, and user-friendly provision of our website (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR).
We use platforms and applications from other providers (“conference platforms”) to conduct video and audio conferences, webinars, and other online meetings. We comply with legal requirements when selecting these services.
Note: Microsoft also processes data in the USA, among other places, where, in the opinion of the European Court of Justice, there is no adequate level of data protection. Microsoft also uses standard contractual clauses in accordance with Art. 46 GDPR.

Our website uses cookies. These are small text files or similar storage notes that are stored on your device. They store information and can also read it again—for example, to secure your login status, save contents in your shopping cart, or remember which pages and functions you have used.
Our consent management tool Complianz obtains and logs your consent. You can revoke or adjust your consent at any time for the future via the cookie settings on this website.
Temporary cookies (session cookies): These are deleted as soon as you leave the website and close your browser.
Permanent cookies: These remain stored even after you close your device, e.g., to secure login data or display preferred content directly. Without specific information on the storage period, cookies can remain on your device for up to two years.
You can revoke your consent at any time. You also have the right to object to the processing of cookie data (Art. 21 GDPR). You can declare your objection via the cookie settings or directly in your browser.
We store your consent in our cookie consent management system so that you do not have to reconfirm it each time you visit. This involves storing pseudonymous user identifiers, the time of consent, browser, system, and device information, and details on the scope of consent. This information may be stored for up to two years.
You can find more detailed information on the individual cookies, their function, storage duration, and third-party providers used in the cookie settings of our tool and in the other sections of this privacy policy.
We want to understand how you use our website so that we can continuously improve it for you. That is why we use web analysis tools (also known as “reach measurement”). This allows us to see, for example, which content is most interesting, how often certain pages are visited, or at what time of day there are particularly many visitors.
Technical information such as your browser, operating system, the time of your visit, or your (truncated) IP address may also be processed. We do not store or process real names or email addresses, only pseudonymized data.
If you give us your consent, we may also set cookies or read information from your device to improve your user experience. Without your consent, we limit ourselves to the minimum that is technically and legally permissible.
In short, we use analytics to provide you with a better, faster, and more relevant online experience. This is implemented by Mpire GmbH.
Types of data processed: Usage data (e.g., pages visited, clicks, length of stay), technical metadata (e.g., device information, truncated IP address).
Data subjects: Visitors to our website.
Purposes of processing: Reach measurement, performance optimization, content improvement.
Security measures: IP masking (truncation of your IP address).

This website uses functions of the web analysis service Google Analytics. The provider is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. Google Analytics enables the website operator to analyze the behavior of website visitors. The website operator receives various usage data, such as page views, length of stay, operating systems used, and the origin of the user. This data is summarized in a user ID and assigned to the respective end device of the website visitor. Furthermore, we can use Google Analytics to record your mouse and scroll movements and clicks, among other things. Google Analytics also uses various modeling approaches to supplement the collected data sets and uses machine learning technologies in data analysis. Google Analytics uses technologies that enable user recognition for the purpose of analyzing user behavior (e.g., cookies or device fingerprinting). The information collected by Google about the use of this website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. The use of this service is based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR and § 25 (1) TDDDG. Consent can be revoked at any time. Data transfer to the USA is based on the standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission. Details can be found here: https://business.safety.google/adscontrollerterms/sccs/.
Google Analytics IP anonymization is activated. This means that your IP address will be truncated by Google within member states of the European Union or in other signatory states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area before being transmitted to the US. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the US and truncated there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity, and to provide other services related to website activity and internet usage to the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.
You can prevent Google from collecting and processing your data by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de.
For more information on how Google Analytics handles user data, please refer to Google’s privacy policy: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=de.
We use Google Tag Manager. The provider is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. Google Tag Manager is a tool that helps us integrate tracking or statistics tools and other technologies into our website. Google Tag Manager itself does not create user profiles, store cookies, or perform independent analyses. It is used solely for the administration and playback of the tools integrated via it. However, Google Tag Manager collects your IP address, which may also be transferred to Google’s parent company in the United States. The use of Google Tag Manager is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the fast and uncomplicated integration and administration of various tools on its website. If consent has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR and § 25 (1) TDDDG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information on the user’s terminal device (e.g., device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TDDDG. Consent can be revoked at any time. The company is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF). The DPF is an agreement between the European Union and the USA that aims to ensure compliance with European data protection standards when data is processed in the USA. Every company certified under the DPF undertakes to comply with these data protection standards.

We use online marketing measures to tailor content and advertisements on our website to the interests of users, to measure their reach, and to optimize our offerings. For this purpose, we may process personal data, in particular usage data (e.g., pages visited, click behavior, access times) and meta/communication data (e.g., device information, IP address).
Cookies or similar technologies may be used for this purpose to create pseudonymous usage profiles. These profiles do not contain any clear data such as name or email address, so no direct identification takes place. If you agree to their use, this data may also be linked to your profiles with external providers (e.g., Google).
We use the “Google Marketing Platform” (and services such as “Google Ad Manager”) to place ads on the Google advertising network (e.g., in search results, in videos, on websites, etc.). The Google Marketing Platform is characterized by the fact that ads are displayed in real time based on the presumed interests of users. This allows us to display ads for and within our online offering in a more targeted manner, so that users are only presented with ads that potentially match their interests. If, for example, a user is shown ads for products that they have shown interest in on other online offerings, this is referred to as “remarketing”; Service provider: Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, parent company: Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; Website: https://marketingplatform.google.com; Privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy; Further information: Types of processing and data processed: https://privacy.google.com/businesses/adsservices; Data processing terms for Google advertising products: Information about the services Data processing terms between controllers and standard contractual clauses for third-country transfers of data: https://business.safety.google/adscontrollerterms; if Google acts as a processor, data processing terms for Google advertising products and standard contractual clauses for third-country data transfers: https://business.safety.google/adsprocessorterms.
We use the online marketing method “Google Ads” to place ads in the Google advertising network (e.g., in search results, in videos, on websites, etc.) so that they are displayed to users who are likely to be interested in the ads (so-called “conversion”). We also measure the conversion of the ads. However, we only learn the anonymous total number of users who clicked on our ad and were redirected to a page tagged with a so-called “conversion tracking tag.” However, we ourselves do not receive any information that can be used to identify users; Service provider: Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, Parent company: Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; Website: https://marketingplatform.google.com; Privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy; Further information: Types of processing and data processed: https://privacy.google.com/businesses/adsservices; Data processing terms for Google advertising products: Information about the services Data processing terms between controllers and standard contractual clauses for third-country transfers of data: https://business.safety.google/adscontrollerterms.

With the help of remarketing audiences, we also want to ensure that our ads match the potential interests of users; Service provider: Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, parent company: Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; Website: https://marketingplatform.google.com; Legal basis: https://business.safety.google/adsprocessorterms/; Privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy; Data processing agreement: https://business.safety.google/adsprocessorterms/; Further information: Types of processing and data processed: https://privacy.google.com/businesses/adsservices; Data processing terms for Google advertising products and standard contractual clauses for third-country transfers of data: https://business.safety.google/adsprocessorterms.
We maintain an online presence on social networks and process user data in this context in order to communicate with people who are active there or to provide information about us. The maintenance of our social media channels and the evaluation of interactions is carried out on our behalf by Mpire GmbH.
We would like to point out that user data may also be processed outside the European Union. This may result in risks for users, for example, because it could make it more difficult to enforce their rights.
Furthermore, user data within social networks is generally processed for market research and advertising purposes. This allows user profiles to be created based on user behavior and resulting interests. These profiles can in turn be used to place advertisements within and outside the networks that are presumed to correspond to the interests of the users. For this purpose, cookies are usually stored on users’ end devices, in which their usage behavior and interests are stored. In addition, data can also be stored across devices in the profiles (especially if users are members of the respective platforms and are logged in to them).
For a detailed description of the respective forms of processing and the options for objection (opt-out), please refer to the privacy policies and information provided by the operators of the respective networks.
In the case of requests for information and the assertion of data subject rights, we also recommend contacting the providers directly. Only they have access to user data and can take appropriate measures and provide information directly. However, if you still require assistance, you can contact us.
In addition to our presence on social networks, we also use the business and marketing tools offered by the platforms when you contact us via our Facebook, Instagram, or LinkedIn page or interact with our posts. These include in particular:
Meta and LinkedIn also process the data independently for their own purposes. We have no influence on this processing. You can find more information in the respective privacy policies:
On our website, we sometimes use functions and content from other providers (“third-party providers”). These can be, for example, videos, maps, fonts, or social media feeds that we integrate so that you can use additional information and services directly on our site.
In order for this content to be displayed in your browser, it is technically necessary for your device to contact the server of the respective provider. This usually also involves the processing of your IP address. Some third-party providers also use so-called pixel tags or cookies, for example, to evaluate the use of the content or to improve marketing measures. This data can be linked to information from other sources in pseudonymized form.
We take care to only integrate services that process your data in accordance with the GDPR and TDDDG. If a service uses cookies or similar technologies, we will ask for your consent in advance via our cookie banner. Such content will not be loaded without your consent.
Types of data processed: Usage data (e.g., pages visited, access times), meta/communication data (e.g., IP address, device information), inventory data (e.g., name, address), contact data (e.g., email), content data (e.g., entries in online forms).

In doing so, we process personal data that we receive directly from you—for example, when you give us your business card, register for an event, participate in a product demonstration, or provide your contact details during a training session.
The planning, organization, implementation, and follow-up of our trade fair appearances, events, product training, and training courses—including lead capture and processing—is carried out on our behalf by Mpire GmbH, Manfred-von-Ardenne-Allee 33, 71522 Backnang, Germany. Mpire is therefore also the recipient of the personal data collected in the course of these activities and processes it in accordance with data protection regulations.
Your data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required for the aforementioned purposes, unless legal retention obligations prevent deletion or you have expressly consented to longer storage.
We use services, platforms, and software from other providers such as IT and cloud service providers, shipping and payment service providers (hereinafter referred to as “third-party providers”) for the purposes of organization, administration, planning, and provision of our services. We comply with legal requirements when selecting these third-party providers and their services.
In this context, personal data may be processed and stored on the servers of third-party providers. This may include, in particular, master data and contact details, data on transactions, contracts, other processes, and their contents.
If users are referred to third-party providers or their platforms in the course of communication or business relations with us, these third-party providers may process usage data and metadata for security purposes, service optimization, or marketing purposes. We therefore ask you to observe the data protection information of the respective third-party providers.
Information on legal bases: If we ask users for their consent to the use of third-party providers, the legal basis is consent. Furthermore, the use may be part of our (pre)contractual services, provided that it has been agreed within this framework. Otherwise, processing is based on our legitimate interests (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR) in efficient, economical, and recipient-friendly services.
Types of data processed: Content data, usage data, meta/communication data, inventory data, contact data.
Data subjects: Communication partners, users (e.g., website visitors, users of online services)
Purposes of processing: Contact requests and communication, office and organizational procedures.
Legal basis: Consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), performance of a contract and pre-contractual inquiries (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR), legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).
Please check the content of this privacy policy regularly. We will amend it as soon as there are any changes to the data processing we carry out. If this requires your cooperation (e.g., new consent) or individual notification, we will inform you accordingly.
If we mention addresses or contact information for companies and organizations in this privacy policy, please note that these may change over time. It is therefore best to check the information before contacting us.
