2. Provision of the website and hosting

Processing is necessary to provide the website, ensure system security and identify technical errors. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the secure, stable and error-free provision of our online offering.
Log data is stored only as long as necessary for operation, security and error analysis. netcup GmbH processes the data as a technical service provider.
3. Contact by email or telephone
If you contact us by email or telephone, we process the information you provide in order to handle your enquiry and communicate with you.
This may include in particular:
- Name
- Contact details
- Company
- Content of the enquiry
- Additional voluntarily provided information
If your enquiry relates to the initiation or performance of a contract, processing is based on Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. For other enquiries, processing is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The data will be deleted once the enquiry has been finally processed and no statutory retention or documentation obligations prevent deletion.
4. Contact form and Formspree
A contact form is available on our website. The data entered by you is processed.
Required fields are:
- Name
- Email address

The information is required so that we can process and respond to your enquiry. Without this information, processing via the form is not possible.
For the technical transmission of the form, we use Formspree, a service provided by Formspree, Inc. based in the USA.
During transmission, technical connection data such as the IP address, time of transmission, browser information and referring page may also be processed. Formspree processes the data to transmit the form message, protect against misuse and provide the technical service.

5. Fonts
The Manrope font used on this website is currently still loaded via Google Fonts. When the font is loaded, a connection to Google is established. Further information is available in Google's privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy.
6. External links
Our website contains links to external websites and profiles, for example to LinkedIn or to websites of our clients.
Simply accessing our website does not transfer data to the respective providers via these links. A connection to the external website is established only when you click such a link. From that point onward, the privacy policies of the respective provider apply.
No social media feeds, videos or posts from external platforms are currently embedded directly on this website.
Contact via WhatsApp
We offer WhatsApp as an optional additional contact channel. When you simply visit our website, no connection to WhatsApp is established.
A connection to WhatsApp is only created when you consciously click the WhatsApp link. After that, you leave our website and use a service provided by WhatsApp.
In this context, WhatsApp Ireland Limited and, where applicable, other companies of the Meta group may process data. This may include in particular your telephone number, profile information, communication content, the time of communication and technical connection data. Processing outside the European Union cannot be ruled out.
As an alternative, you can always contact us via the contact form, by email or by telephone. Further information about data processing can be found in WhatsApp's privacy policy.
7. Cookies, analytics and advertising
Google Ads conversion tracking
This website uses Google Ads conversion tracking provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. This function is activated only after your explicit consent.
Conversion tracking allows us to measure whether a user submits a successful contact enquiry through the form after clicking an advertisement. No conversion is triggered merely by visiting the website or by clicking the submit button. The conversion event is sent only after the form submission has been successfully accepted by Formspree.
Technically, the Google tag is used together with a conversion ID and a conversion label. In this context, Google may process information such as ad click information, IP address, device and browser information, timestamps and interactions with the website.
The integration uses Google Consent Mode V2. Before your consent, the consent values for ad_storage, analytics_storage, ad_user_data and ad_personalization are set to denied. Only after your consent are the required values set to granted and the Google tag is loaded. If you decline, no Google Ads marketing tracking is activated; submitting the contact form via Formspree remains possible.
The processing is based on your consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. Your decision is stored technically in your browser's local storage. You can change or withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future via the "Cookie settings" link in the footer.
When Google services are used, a transfer of data to third countries, in particular the USA, cannot be fully excluded.
Further information is available in Google's privacy policy, the information about Google Ads and the Google Ads data processing terms.

Personal data is not passed on for advertising purposes and is not sold.
9. Storage period
We store personal data only for as long as necessary for the respective processing purpose. Enquiries and communication data are generally deleted once processing has been completed and no statutory retention, documentation or evidence obligations exist.
