This Privacy Policy explains what personal data may be processed when you visit our website or contact us, why such data is processed and what rights you may have in relation to your personal data.
Personal data is any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person.
Where the General Data Protection Regulation of the European Union (“GDPR”) applies, personal data is processed in accordance with the principles and requirements of the GDPR.
3. Visiting Our Website
When you access this website, certain technical information may automatically be transmitted to the server hosting the website.
This information may include:

- requested page or file
- browser type and version
- operating system
- referring website, where transmitted
- technical information relating to the connection
This information is required to deliver the website, maintain technical stability and security, and identify potential misuse or technical problems.
Where the GDPR applies, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in providing a secure and reliable website pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.
Server log data is retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for technical and security purposes, unless longer retention is required to investigate a security incident or comply with a legal obligation.

When visitors access this website, IONOS may process technical data required for the delivery and secure operation of the website. This may include IP addresses, server log information, date and time of access, browser information and requested resources.
IONOS processes such data on our behalf where it acts as a hosting service provider.

This may include your:
- name

- company or organisation
- details contained in your enquiry

Where your enquiry relates to a potential contractual relationship, property, development project or other business relationship, processing may be based on Article 6(1)(b) GDPR.

We retain correspondence only for as long as necessary to deal with the enquiry and, where applicable, for any additional period required by statutory retention obligations or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
6. Cookies and Similar Technologies
This website may use technically necessary cookies or similar technologies required for the proper operation and security of the website.
Such technologies are not used for advertising or behavioural profiling unless expressly stated otherwise.
Where consent is legally required for non-essential cookies or comparable technologies, these technologies will only be activated after the visitor has provided the required consent.

- IT service providers
- professional advisers
- contractual partners where necessary for a specific project
- public authorities where disclosure is legally required
Service providers are only given access to personal data to the extent necessary for the respective service.
10. Data Retention
Personal data is not retained for longer than necessary for the purpose for which it was collected.
Retention periods may depend on:
- the nature of the enquiry or contractual relationship
- statutory retention requirements
- legitimate business requirements
- the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims
When personal data is no longer required, it will be deleted or anonymised where reasonably possible.

- request correction of inaccurate personal data
- request deletion of your personal data
- request restriction of processing
