The protection of your personal data is of particular importance to us. We therefore process your data exclusively in accordance with legal requirements (GDPR, TKG 2003). In this privacy policy, we inform you about the most important aspects of data processing in connection with our website.
Contacting Us
If you contact us via an email address listed on our website, we will use the data you provide solely for the purpose of processing your inquiry. This data will not be disclosed to third parties without your consent. In some cases, however, it may be necessary for us to further process your data and collect it separately.
Data Retention
We do not retain personal data that we collect and process in the course of our normal business operations for longer than is necessary for our business purposes or as required by law. In certain cases, however—such as for tax and accounting purposes—we are legally obligated to retain personal data even after an active business relationship has ended.
Log Data/Server-Logs
Each time you access our website, your internet browser automatically transmits usage data, which is stored in log files (server log files) on our web server. These log files may include the following information:
Name/URL of the accessed webpage
Hostname of the requesting internet service provider
Date and time of the server request
Browser type and version
Operating system
Referrer URL (the previously visited page)
IP addresses are stored only in anonymized form. The log data is used exclusively for statistical evaluations and for the operation, security, and optimization of our website. This data is not combined with other data sources. We reserve the right to review these log files retrospectively if there are concrete indications of unlawful use.
Cookies
Our website uses cookies. Cookies are small text files that are transmitted by a web server and stored by your browser. The information stored in cookies helps us tailor our website to your individual needs and continuously improve our services.
We never store personal data in cookies without your explicit consent. Cookies do not cause any damage to your computer and do not contain viruses.
A cookie banner displayed on our website informs you about the use of cookies. In addition to technically necessary cookies, which cannot be disabled, you can specify your preferences for optional cookies. Your cookie consent remains valid for 365 days and will not be requested again during that period unless you delete the cookie or access the website using a different browser.
Functional Limitations without Cookies
If you restrict or disable the use of cookies, certain areas and services of our website may not function as intended. Cookies already stored on your computer can be deleted at any time through your browser settings. The exact procedure depends on your browser. Further information about cookies and browser settings can be found on the websites of your browser provider, such as Firefox, Internet Explorer, Chrome, Safari, or Opera.
Admin-Area/Login
In addition to the publicly accessible frontend of our website, we maintain a secure administration area (backend), which is reserved exclusively for authorized administrators responsible for the content and technical management of the website.
We have a legitimate interest in protecting this area against unauthorized access. To achieve this, we use appropriate security measures, including the temporary or, where necessary, permanent storage of IP addresses and blocking access from IP addresses that repeatedly attempt unauthorized or unsuccessful login attempts, for example by entering incorrect login credentials.
Google Fonts
To ensure a consistent display of text, our website uses Google Fonts. Instead of loading fonts directly from Google’s servers, which would normally involve transmitting information such as your IP address to Google in the United States, we host the fonts locally on our own web server. If your browser does not support web fonts, a standard system font will be used automatically.
Google Maps
Our website uses Google Maps, a service provided by Google LLC (“Google”). Normally, Google Maps is embedded via an iFrame, which results in data such as your IP address being transmitted to Google’s servers in the United States as soon as the page is loaded.
To protect your privacy, we have implemented a two-click solution. The map is only loaded after you have given your consent through the cookie banner. Only then will data be transmitted to Google.
For more information, please refer to Google’s Google Maps Terms of Service. Please note that Google’s privacy practices may change from time to time as its services evolve.
Your Rights
You have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict the processing of, and transfer your personal data. You also have the right to withdraw your consent at any time and to object to the processing of your personal data where applicable.
If you believe that the processing of your personal data violates applicable data protection law or that your rights have otherwise been infringed, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority. In Austria, this is the Austrian Data Protection Authority.
