Host Europe GmbH

No data is transferred to third countries as the servers are operated in Germany.

SSL / TLS Encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, this site uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the fact that the browser's address bar changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser bar. If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Data Protection

The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy.

We would like to point out that data transmission over the Internet (e.g. when communicating by email) may have security gaps. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.

Note on the Responsible Body

The responsible body for data processing on this website is:

The responsible body is the natural or legal person who alone or jointly with others decides on the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g. names, email addresses, etc.).

Storage Duration

Unless a more specific storage period has been stated within this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for data processing no longer applies. If you assert a legitimate request for deletion or revoke consent for data processing, your data will be deleted, unless we have other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g. tax or commercial law retention periods); in the latter case, deletion will take place after these reasons cease to apply.

General Information on the Legal Basis for Data Processing

If you have consented to data processing, we process your personal data on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR or Art. 9 para. 2 lit. a GDPR, if special categories of data are processed according to Art. 9 para. 1 GDPR.

Revocation of Your Consent to Data Processing

Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can revoke consent already given at any time. The legality of the data processing carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

If you send us enquiries via the contact form, the following information will be processed for the purpose of handling the enquiry and in case of follow-up questions:

• First and last name (required)
• Email address (required)
• Phone number (optional)
• Company (optional)
• Subject of the enquiry (required)

The processing of this data is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR, if your enquiry is related to the fulfilment of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures.

Service provider for form transmission: We use the service Formspree (Formspree, Inc., 2810 N Church St PMB 70296, Wilmington, DE 19802-4447, USA) for the technical receipt and forwarding of the form content to our mailbox. The data you enter into the form is transmitted directly to Formspree on submission and forwarded from there to us by email. Formspree does not store the data permanently; however, submitted entries are temporarily cached for abuse-prevention purposes.

The legal basis for the transfer to Formspree is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR (legitimate interest in a technically reliable form submission); we have concluded a Data Processing Agreement with Formspree in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR. As Formspree is based in the USA, personal data may be transferred to the USA. The EU Standard Contractual Clauses of the European Commission (Implementing Decision 2021/914) and supplementary measures by Formspree apply to safeguard this transfer. Further information: formspree.io/legal/privacy-policy.

The data you enter into the contact form will generally remain with us for up to six months after the last communication; in the event a contract is concluded, until the expiry of statutory tax and commercial retention periods (generally 6 or 10 years).
