Data processing on this website is carried out by the website operator. You can find their contact details in the "Information on the Controller" section of this privacy policy.

On the one hand, your data is collected by you providing it to us. This may include, for example, data that you enter into a contact form or during user registration.

Other data is collected automatically or with your consent when you visit the website by our IT systems. This is primarily technical data (e.g., internet browser, operating system, or time of page view). The collection of this data occurs automatically as soon as you enter this website.

What do we use your data for?

Part of the data is collected to ensure the error-free provision of the website. Other data can be used to analyze your user behavior. If contracts can be concluded or initiated via the website, the transmitted data will also be processed for contract offers, orders, or other order inquiries.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority.

For this and other questions on the topic of data protection, you can contact us at any time.

Analysis Tools and Third-Party Tools

When visiting this website, your surfing behavior can be statistically evaluated. This is mainly done with so-called analysis programs.

2. Hosting

We host the content of our website with the following provider:

Hetzner Online GmbH
Industriestr. 25
91710 Gunzenhausen

(hereinafter Hetzner)

Hetzner's privacy policy: https://www.hetzner.com/de/legal/privacy-policy/ .

The use of Hetzner is based on our legitimate interest in the most reliable presentation of our website and the guarantee of the security of our IT systems (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR). If corresponding consent has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR and § 25 Para. 1 TDDDG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the user's terminal device (e.g., device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TDDDG. Consent can be revoked at any time.

Processor Agreement

We have concluded a data processing agreement (DPA) for the use of the above-mentioned service. This is a contract required by data protection law, which ensures that the provider processes the personal data of our website visitors only according to our instructions and in compliance with the GDPR.

3. Use of Cloudflare

We use the services of Cloudflare, Inc. (101 Townsend St., San Francisco, CA 94107, USA) as a Content Delivery Network (CDN) and for security functions (e.g., protection against DDoS attacks).

Cloudflare optimizes the loading times of our website and protects it from malicious attacks. Information about data traffic between your browser and our website is routed through Cloudflare's servers. Cloudflare processes, in particular, your IP address and information about your browser and the device used.

This data is used to provide the services, analyze traffic, and fend off security threats. Processing is carried out on the basis of our legitimate interest in providing our online offering securely, quickly, and efficiently (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR).

Cloudflare's privacy policy: https://www.cloudflare.com/privacypolicy/

4. Use of Lighthouse CLI

Our service uses the Lighthouse CLI (Command Line Interface) to perform website performance audits. When you initiate an audit, our server executes a Lighthouse command on the URL you provided. Lighthouse, in turn, gathers data about your website, such as performance metrics, accessibility, best practices, and SEO. This data is then processed on our server to generate the report that is displayed to you. No personal data is transmitted to third-party services as part of this process.

The processing of this data is based on our legitimate interest in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR, which allows us to provide you with the requested audit service.

5. Use of Google PageSpeed Insights

We also use the Google PageSpeed Insights API, a service provided by Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland), to perform performance and quality audits of the websites you submit. This service is a core component of the Oleant.net Website Auditor, allowing us to provide you with detailed reports on performance, accessibility, best practices, and SEO.

When you initiate an audit, the URL of the website you want to analyze is transmitted to the Google PageSpeed Insights API. This tool then performs an analysis and sends the results back to our server. Google processes this URL and other technical information (e.g., about the server and the website's code) to generate the report. We do not transmit any personal data about you to Google when performing these audits.

The processing of this data is based on our legitimate interest in providing you with a functional and useful auditing service (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR). By using this service, we fulfill our contractual obligation to you as a user.

If you assert a legitimate request for deletion or revoke consent to 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 occur after these reasons cease to apply.

General Information on the Legal Basis for Data Processing on this Website

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, provided that special categories of data according to Art. 9 Para. 1 GDPR are processed.

Recipients of Personal Data

In the course of our business activities, we cooperate with various external entities. In some cases, the transfer of personal data to these external entities is necessary. We only transfer personal data to external entities if this is necessary in the context of contract fulfillment, if we are legally obliged to do so (e.g., transfer of data to tax authorities), if we have a legitimate interest according to Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR in the transfer, or if another legal basis permits the data transfer. When using processors, we only transfer our customers' personal data on the basis of a valid data processing agreement. In the case of joint processing, a joint processing agreement is concluded.

The data you send us via contact inquiries will remain with us until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to storage, or the purpose for data storage ceases to apply (e.g., after your inquiry has been processed). Mandatory legal provisions – in particular statutory retention periods – remain unaffected.

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.

RIGHT TO OBJECT TO DATA COLLECTION IN SPECIAL CASES AND TO DIRECT MARKETING (ART. 21 GDPR)

IF DATA PROCESSING IS CARRIED OUT ON THE BASIS OF ART. 6 PARA. 1 LIT. E OR F GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME, FOR REASONS ARISING FROM YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION, TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. THE RESPECTIVE LEGAL BASIS ON WHICH PROCESSING IS BASED CAN BE FOUND IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY. IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR AFFECTED PERSONAL DATA, UNLESS WE CAN DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING WHICH OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS, AND FREEDOMS, OR THE PROCESSING SERVES THE ASSERTION, EXERCISE, OR DEFENSE OF LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION ACCORDING TO ART. 21 PARA. 1 GDPR).

IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS PROCESSED FOR THE PURPOSE OF DIRECT MARKETING, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA CONCERNING YOU FOR THE PURPOSE OF SUCH MARKETING; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING TO THE EXTENT THAT IT IS RELATED TO SUCH DIRECT MARKETING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL SUBSEQUENTLY NO LONGER BE USED FOR THE PURPOSE OF DIRECT MARKETING (OBJECTION ACCORDING TO ART. 21 PARA. 2 GDPR).

Right to Lodge a Complaint with the Competent Supervisory Authority

In the event of violations of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, place of work, or place of the alleged infringement. The right to lodge a complaint exists irrespective of any other administrative or judicial remedies.

Right to Data Portability

You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfillment of a contract handed over to you or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of data to another controller, this will only be done insofar as it is technically feasible.

Right to Restriction of Processing

You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. For this, you can contact us at any time. The right to restriction of processing exists in the following cases:

If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we usually need time to verify this. For the duration of the review, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you can request the restriction of data processing instead of deletion.
If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it to assert, exercise, or defend legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of deletion.
If you have lodged an objection pursuant to Art. 21 Para. 1 GDPR, a balance must be struck between your interests and ours. As long as it has not yet been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, these data – apart from their storage – may only be processed with your consent or for the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of an important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.
