We are pleased that you are visiting our website and thank you for your interest in our company.
The protection of your privacy when using our websites is very important to us, and accordingly, we use your data in compliance with legal data protection regulations. Below, we inform you about how we handle your data.
Web Server Logs
You can generally visit our websites without telling us who you are. However, as is common with almost all websites, the server on which our websites are located (hereinafter referred to as “web server”) automatically collects information when you visit us on the internet.
The web server automatically recognizes certain personal data such as your IP address, the date and time you are on our site, the browser you are using (e.g., Internet Explorer), the operating system you are using (e.g., Windows 10), and the domain name and address of your internet provider (e.g., AOL). If our website uses cookies (as explained below), the web server also stores this information.
Note
We use the so-called IP masking technique on our web server. This means that our server anonymizes your IP address. For this purpose, the last 8 bits are removed for IPV4 addresses and the last 64 bits for IPV6 addresses.
Framework Firewall, Brute-Force, IP Blocking
Within our WordPress installation, we use security plugins to protect our website from attacks by hackers, bots, and spamware. In this process, the IP addresses of users who repeatedly (in our setting, 20x/minute) attempt to log in to our administration interface may be stored to permanently block them. We maintain this setting based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR (legitimate interest) for the security of our website.
Cookies
We use browser-side cookies. Cookies are small files with configuration settings that help us determine the frequency and type of use of our website. Cookies also serve to implement certain user functions. We do not collect personal data via cookies. Furthermore, the use of our online offering is also possible without cookies. However, we point out that in this case, not all functions of this website may be fully available.
PRIVACY TIP
“Session” cookies are temporary and are deleted when the browser is closed;
“Web beacons” (tracking pixels) are electronic graphics, also known as “one-pixel images,” that enable recording or analysis.
Which cookies do we use?
For so-called “third-party cookies,” i.e., cookies from third-party providers such as Google Inc., you will also find a link to the latest version of their privacy policy known to us.
Disabling Cookies
There are several ways to manage cookies. The help button in the toolbars of most browsers shows you how to stop accepting cookies, how to be notified when a new cookie is set, and how to block cookies. If you block cookies, you may not be able to register, log in, or fully use the services. Consider which sites you want to allow cookies on.
Web Analytics: Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics from Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. These analytics services use cookies, which are text files stored on your computer that enable an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is transmitted to the servers of the web analytics services (for Google, in the USA) and stored there. These analytics services will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports on website activities for website operators, and provide other services related to website and internet usage. We have decided to remove Google Analytics’ ability to track your IP address (IP masking). This happens automatically, and you do not need to do anything.
Privacy Tip
Furthermore, you can prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address), as well as Google’s processing of this data, by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link (tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de).
Google Maps & Fonts
Our website uses products such as Google Maps and/or Google Fonts.
The operator of these products is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. When you visit one of our pages equipped with a Google Maps or Google Fonts plugin, a connection to Google’s servers is established. Data is then transmitted to the Google server (such as the page you visited, browser, operating system).
PRIVACY TIP
You can find all information about Google’s data processing in the current version of the privacy policy at https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy
Collection, Processing, Use, and Transmission of Personal Data
We only collect data from you (except within the scope of web server logs) if you provide it to us yourself to use one of our offered services (e.g., sending information material, inquiries, contact forms). This data is then exclusively processed and/or used for the provision of these services. Data transfer between our website and us directly occurs via simple forms. These generate classic emails and transmit them to us. This content is transmitted directly and not stored on our web server.
Social Media
Our website links to our social media pages. These buttons are simple links and do not transmit any data.
YouTube
Our website uses plugins from the YouTube site operated by Google. The operator of the pages is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. When you visit one of our pages equipped with a YouTube plugin, a connection to YouTube’s servers is established. The YouTube server is then informed which of our pages you have visited.
PRIVACY TIP
If you are logged into your YouTube account, you enable YouTube to directly associate your browsing behavior with your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account. Further information on the handling of user data can be found in YouTube’s privacy policy at: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy
Data Security
All website data is stored by our web server in the Falkenstein data center. Both we and the provider implement technical and organizational security measures to protect your collected data against accidental or intentional manipulation, loss, destruction, or access by unauthorized persons. Our security measures are continuously improved in line with technological developments. You can contact our webmasters at datenschutz@native-media.at at any time.
SSL Encryption
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as inquiries you send to us as site operators, this site uses SSL encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the browser’s address bar changing from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock symbol in your browser bar. When SSL encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.
