With this privacy policy we clarify the type, scope and purpose of the collection and use of personal data. The personal data include e.g. your name, your address, your e-mail address, your date of birth. It is therefore all the data that can be assigned to a specific or identifiable person (“data subject”).

2. What Data is collected, processed and used?

a) When visiting the website

  • Name of retrieved file
  • Date and time of retrieval
  • amount of data transferred
  • Message whether the retrieval was successful
  • Description of the type of web browser used
  • operating system used
  • the previously visited page
  • Internet provider
  • your IP address

The data mentioned are processed by us for the following purposes:

  • Ensuring a smooth connection,
  • Ensuring comfortable use of our website,
  • Evaluation of system security and stability as well
  • for other administrative purposes.

The legal basis for this data processing is Art. 6 Para.1 lit.f GDPR. Our legitimate interest follows from the data collection purposes listed above. Under no circumstances do we use the collected data for the purpose of identifying individual users or drawing conclusions about your person. The data is not merged with other data sources.

In addition, we use cookies and analysis services when you visit our website. You can find more detailed explanations in Sections 4 and 5 of this privacy policy.

b) When registering for our newsletter

If we offer a newsletter on our website and you have expressly consented in accordance with Art. 6 Para.1 lit.a GDPR, we will use your e-mail address to send you our newsletter on a regular basis. To receive the newsletter, personal contact data (e-mail address, name and interests as well as other optional information about the organization, position, industry) are stored and processed.

You can unsubscribe at any time, e.g. via a link at the end of each newsletter. Alternatively, you can send us your unsubscribe request at any time by e-mail or inform us of your request via the other contact methods mentioned above under No. 1.

c) If you contact us personally

If you contact us of your own accord, the personal data you provide voluntarily (e.g. name, e-mail address) will be collected and transmitted to us. This is the case, for example, when you use a contact form on our website or send us an email. In order to use the contact form, you must provide a valid e-mail address so that we know who sent the request and can answer it. Further information can be provided voluntarily.

Your personal data will only be used to contact you or for the purpose for which you provided us with this data, e.g. for processing your inquiries, technical administration of the website and customer management.

Insofar as this concerns information on communication channels (e.g. e-mail address, telephone number), you agree that we may also contact you via this communication channel in order to answer your request.

The data processing for the purpose of contacting us takes place according to Art. 6 Para.1 lit.a DSGVO on the basis of your voluntarily given consent.

The personal data collected by us for the use of the contact form will be automatically deleted after your request has been dealt with.

d) When conducting a survey

Participation in the survey is voluntary, as is answering individual questions. All information will be treated confidentially.

When answering the questions in our survey, no personal data is collected that goes beyond the information you yourself have provided. If the choice or formulation of the answers allows conclusions to be drawn about the person of the participant, the data is processed to protect our legitimate interests in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. f DSGVO. The survey serves the respective project. This constitutes legitimate interests within the meaning of the aforementioned provision.

At the end of the survey, you can voluntarily enter your email address. Your email address will not be merged with the survey data and will be stored separately from your answers. The processing of your email address is based on Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f DSGVO.

We save the questions and answers of the survey. In addition, the results are evaluated and analysed by employees of geoSports-Tec GmbH.

Your responses will be anonymised or deleted as soon as we have completed the project. Unless there are reasons that justify longer storage (for example, if you have given your consent according to Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. a DSGVO).

The documentation and possible publication of the survey results will be carried out exclusively in anonymised form, without naming you and without providing any information that would allow us to draw conclusions about your person.

3. In which case do we pass on data?

We only pass on your personal data to third parties if:

  • you have given your express consent in accordance with Art. 6 Para.1 lit.a GDPR,
  • this is permitted by law and required according to Art. 6 Para.1 lit.b GDPR for the processing of contractual relationships (e.g. by external service providers or partner companies) with you,
  • the disclosure is necessary in accordance with Art.6 Para.1 lit.f GDPR and there is no reason to assume that you have an overriding interest worthy of protection in the non-disclosure of your data, as well as
  • in the case where there is a legal obligation for the transfer according to Art. 6 Para.1 lit.c GDPR.

6. Social Plug-ins

We use social plugins from the social network Facebook on our website on the basis of Art. 6 Para.1 lit.f GDPR. The underlying advertising purpose is to be regarded as a legitimate interest within the meaning of the GDPR. Responsibility for data protection-compliant operation is to be guaranteed by their respective providers. We integrate these plugins using the so-called two-click method in order to protect visitors to our website in the best possible way.

Social media plugins from Facebook are used on our website to make their use more personal. For this we use the “LIKE” or “SHARE” button. This is an offer from Facebook.

If you access a page on our website that contains such a plugin, your browser establishes a direct connection to the Facebook servers. The content of the plugin is transmitted directly from Facebook to your browser, which integrates it into the website.

By integrating the plugin, Facebook receives the information that your browser has accessed the corresponding page of our website, even if you do not have a Facebook account or are not currently logged in to Facebook. This information (including your IP address) is transmitted directly from your browser to a Facebook server in the USA and stored there.

If you are logged into Facebook, Facebook can directly assign your visit to our website to your Facebook account. If you interact with the plugins, for example by pressing the “LIKE” or “SHARE” button, the corresponding information is also transmitted directly to a Facebook server and stored there. The information is also published on Facebook and displayed to your Facebook friends.

Facebook can use this information for advertising, market research and needs-based design of the Facebook pages. For this purpose, usage, interest and relationship profiles are created by Facebook, e.g. to evaluate your use of our website with regard to the advertisements displayed to you on Facebook, to inform other Facebook users about your activities on our website and to provide other services related to the use of Facebook.

If you do not want Facebook to associate the data collected through our website with your Facebook account, you must log out of Facebook before visiting our website.
