Introduction

We have written this Privacy Policy to inform you, by the terms of the Global Data Privacy and Protection Regulation and mandates, related to the data and information we collect, how we use the data and what you may do as a visitor to our website(s).

The protection of your personal data during the collection, processing and use during your visit to our website is critical. Personal information is information that helps to find your identity. This includes information such as name, address, postal address, and telephone number. Information that is not directly related to the identity and status (for example, preferred websites or the number of users of a website) is not collected.

The law protects all personal data. Below is information on the collected data during your visit to the Site and how it is used:

Collection and processing of data

Every access to our website and retrieval of a file stored on the website is logged. The storage serves internal system-related, statistical purposes and for data security reasons to ensure the stability and operational safety of our system, primarily provided by the host as a standard.

The following are logged: name of the retrieved file, date and time of the retrieval, amount of transmitted data, message about the successful retrieval, web browser and related. Besides, the IP addresses of the requesting computer are logged. We store this data for approx. Sixty days, unless we have a business, training or certification relationship.

Additional personal data will only be collected if the data subject voluntarily provides this information, for example, in the context of a request or registration. This option is currently not in use, except when you register for our conferences, workshops, seminars and related participation.

Use and disclosure of personal data

Insofar as you have provided us with personal data, we only use these to answer your inquiries, process contracts concluded with you and for technical administration. We store your data within the scope of the legal storage obligations.

Deleting the stored personal data takes place if you revoke your consent to the storage, if their knowledge is no longer necessary to fulfil the purpose pursued with the storage or if their storage for other legal reasons is inadmissible unsubscribe to any communication.

Your rights

You have the right to information, correction, deletion, restriction, data portability, revocation and opposition. Contact us regarding any issues. If you believe that the processing of your data violates the general provisions of most global Data Privacy and Protection mandates or if you feel that your privacy claims are violated in a manner that we regret, you may contact us first and if you do not get a satisfactory response from us then to the local Regulatory Authority. Due to the global nature of our business, it would probably be the local data protection authority. You are welcome to contact us to get information on the local authority’s contact details.

Upon written request, we will gladly inform you about the data stored about you. Security note: We endeavour to store your personal data by taking all technical and organisational possibilities not to be accessible to third parties. When communicating by e-mail, complete data security cannot be guaranteed. We, therefore, recommend that confidential information be sent by post. We cannot accept liability for external links to third-party content despite careful content control. Please see the attached note regarding your rights according to GDPR and global regulations.
