2. What data do we collect?

Below you will find an overview of the data we may collect:

Unidentified and non-identifiable information collected through the use of our services (“non-personal data”). Non-personal data does not allow conclusions to be drawn about the person from whom it was collected. Non-personal data we collect consists primarily of technical and aggregated usage information.

Individually identifiable information, i.e., all those that can identify you or could identify you with reasonable effort (“personal data”). The personal data we collect through our services may include information that is requested from time to time, such as names, email addresses, addresses, phone numbers, IP addresses, and more. If we combine personal data with non-personal data, as long as they are in combination, we will treat them as personal data.

3. How do we collect data?

Below are the main methods we use to collect data:

We collect data during the use of our services. When you visit our digital assets and use services, we may collect, record, and store usage, sessions, and related information.

We collect data that you provide to us directly, for example, when you contact us through a communication channel (e.g., by using the contact form or sending an email with a request or feedback).

As described below, we may collect data from third-party sources.

For other internal, statistical, and research purposes;

To comply with applicable laws, regulations, or governmental requests;
To send you updates, news, promotional materials, and other information related to our services. For promotional emails, you can decide whether you wish to continue receiving them. If not, simply click on the unsubscribe link in these emails.

5. Who do we share this data with?

We may share your data with our service providers to operate our services (e.g., data storage via third-party hosting services, providing technical support, etc.).

We may also disclose your data under the following circumstances: (i) to investigate, detect, prevent, or take action against illegal activities or other wrongdoing; (ii) to establish or exercise our rights of defense; (iii) to protect our rights, property, or personal safety, as well as the safety of our users or the public; (iv) in the event of a change in control at our company or one of our affiliates (through a merger, acquisition, or purchase of substantially all assets, etc.); (v) to collect, hold, and/or manage your data via authorized third-party providers (e.g., cloud service providers) as reasonably necessary for business purposes; (vi) to work jointly with third-party providers to improve your user experience. To avoid any misunderstandings, we would like to clarify that we may transfer, share, or otherwise use non-personal data at our discretion.

Without your consent, we will not share your email address or other personal data with advertising companies or advertising networks.

6. Where do we store the data?

8. How do we protect the data?

The hosting service for our digital assets provides us with the online platform through which we can offer you our services. Your data may be stored via the data storage, databases, and general applications of our hosting provider. They store your data on secure servers behind a firewall and provide secure HTTPS access to most areas of their services.

Despite the measures and efforts taken by us and our hosting provider, we cannot and will not guarantee absolute protection and security of the data you upload, publish, or otherwise share with us or others.

For this reason, we ask you to set secure passwords and, where possible, not to transmit confidential information to us or others that you believe could significantly or adversely affect you if disclosed. Since email and instant messaging are not considered secure forms of communication, we also ask you not to share confidential information through these communication channels.

9. Use of cookies and similar technologies

When you visit or access our services, we authorize third parties to use web beacons, cookies, pixel tags, scripts, and other technologies and analytics services ("tracking technologies"). These tracking technologies may allow third parties to automatically collect your data to improve the navigation experience on our digital assets, optimize their performance, and ensure a tailored user experience, as well as for security and fraud prevention purposes.

To learn more about this, please read our Cookie Policy.

10.Your rights

We use your personal data only for the purposes outlined in the privacy notice and only when we are convinced that:

The use of your personal data is necessary to fulfill or enter into a contract (e.g., to provide you with the services themselves or customer support and technical support);
The use of your personal data is necessary to comply with applicable legal or regulatory obligations; or
The use of your personal data is necessary to support our legitimate business interests (provided that this is done in a way that is proportionate and respects your privacy rights).

As an EU resident, you may:

Request confirmation of whether personal data concerning you is being processed, and access your stored personal data as well as certain additional information;
Request the receipt of personal data you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format;
Request the correction of your personal data stored with us;
Request the deletion of your personal data;
Object to the processing of your personal data by us;
Request the restriction of the processing of your personal data; or
File a complaint with a supervisory authority.

Please note, however, that these rights are not absolute and may be subject to our own legitimate interests and regulatory requirements. If you have general questions about the personal data we collect and how we use it, please contact us as indicated below.

In the course of providing the services, we may transfer data across borders to affiliated companies or other third parties and from your country/jurisdiction to other countries/jurisdictions worldwide. By using the services, you consent to the transfer of your data outside the EEA.

If you are located in the EEA, your personal data will only be transferred to locations outside the EEA if we are convinced that an adequate or comparable level of protection for personal data exists. We will take appropriate steps to ensure that we have suitable contractual agreements with our third parties to ensure that appropriate security measures are in place, so that the risk of unlawful use, alteration, deletion, loss, or theft of your personal data is minimized and that these third parties always act in accordance with applicable laws.
