Data privacy

Privacy policy

Thank you for your interest in my online presence. The protection of your personal data is very important to me. I would therefore like to take this opportunity to inform you about data protection in my company. It goes without saying that I comply with the legal provisions of the Data Protection Act (DSG2000, EUDSGVO), the Telecommunications Act (TKG) and other data protection regulations. You can trust me with your personal data! They are encrypted by digital security systems and transmitted to me. My website is protected by technical measures against damage, destruction or unauthorised access.

Subject matter of data protection

The subject of data protection is personal data. According to the EU GDPR, this is individual information about the personal or factual circumstances of an identified or identifiable natural person. This includes, for example, information such as name, postal address, e-mail address or telephone number, but may also include usage data such as your IP address.

Scope of data collection and storage

In general, it is not necessary for you to provide personal data in order to use my website. However, we may need your personal data so that we can actually provide my services. This applies in particular to answering individual enquiries. If you commission us to provide a service, we will only collect and store your personal data to the extent necessary to provide the service or fulfil the order. Examples of necessary data types collected here are e.g. first name, surname, postal address, telephone number, email address.

For this purpose, it may be necessary to pass on your personal data to companies, e.g. transport companies, which we use to provide the service or to fulfil the contract.

Your personal data will not be passed on to third parties without your express consent, unless this is necessary for the provision of the service or the fulfilment of the contract (as stated above). Data will also only be transferred to state institutions and authorities authorised to receive information within the scope of the statutory duty to provide information or if we are obliged to provide information by a court decision. In the latter case, the data subjects will be informed immediately about the transfer of the data. Once the contract has been fully processed, your data will be deleted after expiry of the purpose of use and the retention regulations under tax and commercial law, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data (see right to erasure). 

Data collection through the use of Google Analytics

Our website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google inc. Google Analytics uses so-called "cookies". These are files that are stored on your computer and enable your use of the website to be analysed. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, if IP anonymisation is activated on this website, your IP address will first be truncated by Google within member states of the European Union or in other signatory states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and truncated there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to analyse your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide other services relating 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 may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser, however please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website. You can also prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website (including your IP address) and from processing this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at the following link http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.

Collection and storage of usage data

To optimise our website, we collect and store data such as the date and time the page was accessed or the page from which you accessed our site. This is done anonymously without personally identifying the user of the site. Under certain circumstances, user profiles are created using a pseudonym. Here too, there is no connection between the natural person behind the pseudonym and the usage data collected. We collect this data exclusively for statistical purposes in order to further optimise our website and make our Internet offerings even more attractive. The data is collected and stored exclusively in anonymised or pseudonymised form and does not allow any conclusions to be drawn about you as a natural person.

Use of data for a specific purpose

We observe the principle of earmarked data use and only collect, process and store personal data for legitimate purposes that have a corresponding legal basis.

Right to information, cancellation and objection as well as contact details

You have the right to request information about or deletion of your processed personal data to a reasonable extent at any time. You also have the right to have this data corrected or blocked. You also have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time without giving reasons. In this case, we will immediately cease further processing of your personal data and irretrievably destroy the data. Please note that this will preclude any further co-operation or services on our part will no longer be possible. If you would like information about your personal data or its correction or deletion, or if you would like to object or have further questions about the use of your personal data provided to us, please contact us: studio@jakobkirchmayr.com
