Personal data of our users is processed only for the purposes agreed with you, or where such a legal basis (within the meaning of the GDPR) exists. We collect only such personal data as is actually necessary for carrying out and handling our tasks and services, or which you have voluntarily provided to us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When accessing our websites, the following data is stored in log files: IP address, date, time, browser request and general transmitted information about the operating system or browser.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This usage data forms the basis for statistical, anonymous analysis, allowing us to identify trends and improve our offerings accordingly. As an individual user, you remain anonymous in this process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This usage data is stored on our server hosted by Metanet AG in Zurich.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The data you provide to us is used only for the communication with you that you have requested. Disclosure to third parties outside of xeit AG takes place only with your consent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Master data (e.g. names, addresses)<\/p>\n\n\n\n All data processing is carried out only for specific purposes. These may arise, for example, from technical necessity, contractual requirements, legal regulations, a predominant interest \u2014 i.e., legitimate grounds \u2014 or your explicit consent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We collect, store and process personal data insofar as this is necessary. This applies, for example, to managing the customer relationship, providing our services and products, processing orders and contracts, sales and invoicing, responding to questions and inquiries, providing information about our products and services and their marketing, making the online offering available along with its functions and content, responding to contact inquiries and communicating with users, as well as evaluating and further developing services and products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You have the right to request information about your personal data processed by us. In particular, you may request information about the purposes of processing, the categories of personal data concerned, the categories of recipients to whom your data has been or will be disclosed, the planned retention period, the existence of a right to rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, or objection, data portability, the origin of your data if it was not collected from us, as well as the existence of automated decision-making, including profiling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You have the right to withdraw at any time any consent you may have given for the use of your personal data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you believe that our processing of your personal data violates applicable data protection regulations, you have the option to lodge a complaint with the data protection authority.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Our website uses “Google Analytics” and “Google Ads,” web analytics services provided by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94.043 USA, to analyze website usage. Google Analytics and Google Ads use cookies (see section 7), which are stored on your computer. The information generated by these cookies about your use of the website and the internet may be processed and evaluated by Google.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The data collected by Google may be transferred by Google to countries outside the EU and the EEA, in particular the USA. However, Google has committed to the Privacy Shield Framework. Further information on your rights under this framework can be found at https:\/\/ec.europa.eu\/info\/law\/law-topic\/data-protection\/data-transfers-outside-eu\/eu-us-privacy-shield_en<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n In addition, we ensure that your IP address is anonymized before being transmitted to Google by activating the “IP anonymization” function on this website. As a result, your IP address will be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other signatory states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area before being transmitted to the USA. In exceptional cases, the full IP address may be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports on website activity and provide other services relating to website 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 data held by Google.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The legal basis for the use of Google Analytics and Google Ads is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We use cookies on our website to make our offering user-friendly. Cookies are small files that your browser automatically creates and that are stored on your device (laptop, tablet, smartphone, etc.) when you visit our site. These cookies remain stored until you delete them. This allows us to recognize your browser on your next visit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you do not wish this to happen, you can configure your browser to notify you when cookies are set and to allow them only on a case-by-case basis. Please note, however, that disabling cookies may mean you are unable to use all the functions of our website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The legal basis for the data processed by cookies is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Cookies remain valid for 30 days and are then deleted by your browser.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you fill out our contact form or send us an email or other electronic message, your information will be stored only for the purpose of processing your inquiry and any related follow-up questions, and will be used only in connection with that inquiry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The legal basis for processing your inquiry is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you subscribe to our newsletter, we will immediately send an email containing a hyperlink to the email address you provided. By clicking this link, you confirm your newsletter subscription (double opt-in procedure). If this confirmation is not completed within one week, we will delete the email address from our temporary list and no subscription will take place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n By confirming the newsletter subscription, you consent to the storage of your email address, including the date of registration, your IP address and the name of the requested newsletter list. We use your email address and any optional personal data collected at the same time, such as name and salutation, only for managing and sending the newsletter you requested, at the frequency specified during registration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you subscribe to our newsletter tailored to your individual interests, you allow xeit GmbH to use the Campaign Monitor software to analyze your email opening and click behavior and to create a personalized usage profile. Further information about this software can be found in Campaign Monitor’s privacy policy at https:\/\/www.campaignmonitor.com\/policies\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n You may withdraw this consent at any time, which will result in the deletion of this usage data. Otherwise, our newsletters do not contain third-party advertising or links to external sites unrelated to the content of our newsletter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Every newsletter includes information on how you can unsubscribe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n All embedded social plugins work using the two-click procedure. This means that a plugin only begins recording your browsing behavior once you have actively enabled that specific plugin by clicking on it. If, for example, you are simultaneously logged into your Facebook account while visiting our website, Facebook will register the page visit after the plugin has been activated (first click) and may associate this visit with your user account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Our pages integrate plugins from the social network Facebook, 1601 South California Avenue, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA. You can recognize Facebook plugins by the Facebook logo or the “Like” button on our site. An overview of Facebook plugins can be found at https:\/\/developers.facebook.com\/docs\/plugins\/?locale=de_DE<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When you visit our pages, the plugin establishes a direct connection between your browser and the Facebook server. This allows Facebook to receive information that you have visited our page with your IP address. If you click the Facebook “Like” button while logged into your Facebook account, you can link the content of our pages to your Facebook profile. This allows Facebook to associate your visit to our pages with your user account. Please note that as the provider of these pages, we have no knowledge of the content of the data transmitted or how it is used by Facebook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Further information can be found in Facebook’s privacy policy at facebook.com\/about\/privacy<\/a>. If you do not want Facebook to associate your visit to our pages with your Facebook user account, please log out of your Facebook account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Our pages integrate features of the Twitter service. These features are offered by Twitter Inc., 795 Folsom St., Suite 600, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA. By using Twitter and the “Re-Tweet” function, the websites you visit are linked to your Twitter account and disclosed to other users. In this process, data such as IP address, browser type, domains accessed, pages visited, mobile network provider, device and application IDs and search terms are transmitted to Twitter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Please note that as the provider of these pages, we have no knowledge of the content of the data transmitted or how it is used by Twitter. Due to the ongoing updates to Twitter’s privacy policy, we refer you to the most current version at https:\/\/twitter.com\/de\/privacy<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can change your privacy settings on Twitter in your account settings at https:\/\/twitter.com<\/a>. For questions, please contact privacy@twitter.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We hereby expressly object to the use of contact data published as part of our legal notice obligation by third parties for the purpose of sending unsolicited advertising and information materials. Xeit GmbH expressly reserves the right to take legal action in the event of unsolicited advertising, such as spam emails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n During your visit to our website, we use the widely established SSL protocol in conjunction with the highest level of encryption supported by your browser. You can tell whether an individual page of our website is transmitted in encrypted form by the closed padlock or key symbol displayed in your browser’s address bar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In addition, we apply further appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your data against accidental or intentional manipulation, partial or complete loss, destruction, or unauthorized access by third parties. Our security measures are continuously improved in line with technological developments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The data we process is deleted or its processing is restricted in accordance with Art. 17 and 18 GDPR (right to erasure, right to restriction of processing). Unless expressly stated otherwise in this privacy policy, the data stored by us is deleted as soon as it is no longer required for its intended purpose and no statutory retention obligations prevent its deletion. If the data is not deleted because it is required for other, legally permitted purposes, its processing is restricted instead. This means the data is blocked and not processed for any other purposes. This applies, for example, to data that must be retained for commercial or tax law reasons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The hosting services we use serve to provide the following services: infrastructure and platform services, computing capacity, storage space and database services, security services, as well as technical maintenance services, which we use for the purpose of operating this online offering.<\/p>\n\n\n\nGeneral information on data processing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
