Their contact details can be found in the section \u201cNotice concerning the responsible party\u201d in this privacy policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>How do we collect your data?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your data is collected in part by you providing it to us. This may, for example, be data you enter into a contact form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Other data is collected automatically, or after you give consent, when you visit the website through our IT systems. This is mainly technical data (e.g., internet browser, operating system, or time of page access). This data is collected automatically as soon as you access this website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>What do we use your data for?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Part of the data is collected to ensure error-free provision of the website. Other data may be used to analyze your user behavior.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>What rights do you have regarding your data?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You have the right at any time to receive information free of charge about the origin, recipients, and purpose of your stored personal data. You also have a right to request the correction or deletion of this data. If you have given consent to data processing, you may revoke this consent at any time for the future.

Hosting<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>External Hosting<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This website is hosted by an external service provider (host). The personal data collected on this website is stored on the servers of the host. This may include, in particular, IP addresses, contact requests, meta and communication data, contract data, contact data, names, website access, and other data generated via a website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The host is used for the purpose of contract fulfillment towards our potential and existing customers (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR) and in the interest of secure, fast, and efficient provision of our online services by a professional provider (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). If corresponding consent has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TTDSG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the user\u2019s terminal device (e.g., device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TTDSG. Consent may be revoked at any time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our host will only process your data to the extent necessary to fulfil its performance obligations and will follow our instructions with regard to this data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We use the following host: server.steip.at<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a>3. General Information and Mandatory Information<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Data Protection<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you use this website, various personal data is collected. Personal data is data that can be used to personally identify you. This privacy policy explains what data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this happens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We point out that data transmission over the internet (e.g., when communicating by email) may have security gaps. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Notice Concerning the Responsible Party<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The party responsible for data processing on this website is:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Roland Auer<br>Am Teich 12\/6<br>2331 V\u00f6sendorf<br>Austria<br>Phone: +43 699 1151 2331<br>Email: info@roland-auer.com<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The responsible party is the natural or legal person who, alone or jointly with others, decides on the purposes and means of processing personal data (such as names, email addresses, etc.).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Storage Period<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unless a more specific storage period has been stated within this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for the data processing no longer applies. If you assert a justified request for deletion or revoke your 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 take place once these reasons no longer apply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>General Information on the Legal Basis for Data Processing on This Website<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have consented to data processing, we process your personal data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR, insofar as special categories of data are processed under Art. 9(1) GDPR. In the event of explicit consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, data processing also takes place on the basis of Art. 49(1)(a) GDPR. If you have consented to the storage of cookies or access to information on your device (e.g., via device fingerprinting), data processing additionally takes place on the basis of Section 25(1) TTDSG. Consent may be revoked at any time. If your data is required for contract fulfillment or the implementation of pre-contractual measures, we process your data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. Furthermore, we process your data if this is necessary to fulfil a legal obligation, on the basis of Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR. Data processing may also take place on the basis of our legitimate interest under Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Information on the relevant legal basis in each individual case is provided in the following paragraphs of this privacy policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Notice on Data Transfer to the USA and Other Third Countries<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We use, among other things, tools from companies based in the USA or other third countries that are not considered secure under data protection law. If these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to and processed in these third countries. We point out that no level of data protection comparable to that in the EU can be guaranteed in these countries. It cannot therefore be ruled out that US authorities (e.g., intelligence services) may process, analyze, and permanently store your data held on US servers for surveillance purposes. We have no influence over these processing activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Revocation of Your Consent to Data Processing<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You may revoke consent already given at any time. The lawfulness of data processing carried out prior to revocation remains unaffected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Right to Object to the Collection of Data in Special Cases and to Direct Marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Where data processing is based on Art. 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR, you have the right, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to object at any time to the processing of your personal data; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. The relevant 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 that outweigh your interests, rights, and freedoms, or the processing serves the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims (objection under Art. 21(1) GDPR).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If your personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for the purpose of such marketing; this also applies to profiling insofar as it is related to such direct marketing. If you object, your personal data will subsequently no longer be used for direct marketing purposes (objection under Art. 21(2) GDPR).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Right to Lodge a Complaint with the Competent Supervisory Authority<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">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 violation. The right to lodge a complaint exists without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Right to Data Portability<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfilment 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 the data to another controller, this will only be done to the extent technically feasible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>SSL\/TLS Encryption<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the site operator, this site uses SSL\/TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from \u201chttp:\/\/\u201d to \u201chttps:\/\/\u201d and by the lock icon in your browser line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Access, Deletion, and Correction<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Within the framework of the applicable statutory provisions, you have the right at any time to free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of the data processing, and, if applicable, a right to correction or deletion of this data. For this purpose, as well as for further questions on the subject of personal data, you may contact us at any time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Right to Restriction of Processing<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. For this purpose, you may 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 generally need time to verify this. For the duration of the verification, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. If the processing of your personal data has taken place \/ is taking place unlawfully, you may request the restriction of data processing instead of deletion. If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it to exercise, defend, or assert legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of deletion. If you have objected under Art. 21(1) GDPR, a balancing of your interests and ours must be carried out. 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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a>4. Data Collection on This Website<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Cookies<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our website uses so-called \u201ccookies.\u201d Cookies are small text files and do not cause any damage to your device.

These enable us or you to use certain services offered by the third-party company (e.g., cookies for processing payment services).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cookies have various functions. Many cookies are technically necessary, as certain website functions would not work without them (e.g., the shopping cart function or the display of videos). Other cookies are used to evaluate user behavior or to display advertising.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cookies that are required to carry out the electronic communication process, to provide certain functions you have requested (e.g., for the shopping cart function), or to optimize the website (e.g., cookies to measure the web audience) (necessary cookies) are stored on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, unless another legal basis is stated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing necessary cookies for the technically error-free and optimized provision of its services. If consent to the storage of cookies and comparable recognition technologies has been requested, processing takes place exclusively on the basis of this consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TTDSG); consent may be revoked at any time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can set your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and only allow cookies in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general, and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser.

The provider of this technology is CookieYes Inc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you visit our website, a CookieYes cookie is set in your browser to store whether you have given or revoked your consent. The data collected in this way is stored until you request its deletion, delete the CookieYes cookie yourself, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">CookieYes is used to obtain the legally required consent for the use of cookies. The legal basis for this is Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR in conjunction with Section 96(3) of the Austrian Telecommunications Act (TKG) and Section 25 TTDSG.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Further information can be found in CookieYes\u2019s privacy policy: https:\/\/www.cookieyes.com\/privacy-policy\/<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Inquiries by Email, Telephone, or Fax<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you contact us by email, telephone, or fax, your inquiry, including all resulting personal data (name, inquiry), will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of handling your request.

In all other cases, processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective handling of inquiries addressed to us (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), if this has been requested; consent may be revoked at any time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Data you send to us via contact inquiries remains with us until you request its deletion, revoke your consent to storage, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g., after your request has been fully processed).

If you enter data for the purpose of subscribing to the newsletter (e.g., email address), this data is stored on MailChimp\u2019s servers in the USA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With the help of MailChimp, we can analyze our newsletter campaigns. When you open an email sent using MailChimp, a file contained in the email (a so-called web beacon) connects to MailChimp\u2019s servers in the USA. This allows it to be determined whether a newsletter message has been opened and which links, if any, have been clicked. This information cannot be attributed to individual newsletter recipients and is used solely for the statistical analysis of newsletter campaigns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you do not want analysis by MailChimp, you must unsubscribe from the newsletter. We provide a corresponding link in every newsletter message for this purpose. Data processing is based on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You may revoke this consent at any time by unsubscribing from the newsletter. The lawfulness of the data processing carried out before revocation remains unaffected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Data you provide to us for the purpose of subscribing to the newsletter will be stored by us or the newsletter service provider until you unsubscribe from the newsletter and deleted from the newsletter distribution list after unsubscribing. Data stored by us for other purposes remains unaffected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Data transfer to the USA is based on the European Commission\u2019s standard contractual clauses. Details can be found here: https:\/\/mailchimp.com\/eu-us-data-transfer-statement\/ and https:\/\/mailchimp.com\/legal\/data-processing-addendum\/#Annex_C_-_Standard_Contractual_Clauses<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After you unsubscribe from the newsletter distribution list, your email address may be stored by us or the newsletter service provider in a blacklist if this is necessary to prevent future mailings. The data from the blacklist is used only for this purpose and is not combined with other data. Storage in the blacklist is not time-limited. You may object to this storage if your interests outweigh our legitimate interest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Further details can be found in MailChimp\u2019s terms and conditions at: https:\/\/mailchimp.com\/legal\/terms\/<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Version: September 1<sup>st<\/sup> 2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Privacy Policy 1.
