We take the protection of your personal data seriously.

Personal data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person.

We process personal data only where this is necessary to provide and operate this website, to communicate with you, or where another legal basis permits the processing.

The processing of personal data is carried out in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and applicable German data protection law.

When you access this website, technical information may automatically be transmitted by your browser to the infrastructure used to provide the website.

This information may include:

• IP address

• requested page or resource
• browser type and browser version
• operating system

This processing is necessary to provide the website, maintain its technical stability and security, and identify or prevent technical abuse.

The legal basis for this processing is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest is the secure, stable and efficient operation of this website.

Server log data is retained only for as long as necessary for these purposes, subject to any applicable legal obligations or security requirements.

This website is hosted using the technical infrastructure required to make the ProductPunks website available on the internet.

In connection with hosting the website, the hosting provider may process technical information, including server log data and IP addresses, on our behalf or as necessary to provide its services.

Such processing is limited to what is necessary for the secure and reliable provision of the website.

Where a hosting provider acts as a processor within the meaning of Article 28 GDPR, processing is carried out on the basis of an appropriate data processing agreement.

If data is processed outside the European Union or European Economic Area, appropriate safeguards under the GDPR are used where required.

The legal basis for processing necessary for the operation of the website is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.

Mandatory fields are limited to the information required to process and respond to your enquiry.

We use this information solely to review, process and respond to your enquiry and, where applicable, to discuss potential cooperation.

Where your enquiry relates to potential contractual or pre-contractual measures, the legal basis for processing is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR.

For other general business enquiries, processing is based on our legitimate interest in responding to enquiries addressed to us pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.

Submitting the contact form does not subscribe you to a newsletter or other marketing communication.

Your information is retained only for as long as necessary to process the enquiry and any subsequent communication, unless statutory retention obligations require longer storage.

To transmit contact-form enquiries to us, technical service providers may be used for form processing, email delivery or hosting.

These providers process personal data only to the extent necessary to transmit and deliver the enquiry.

Where such providers process personal data on our behalf, they are used in accordance with the applicable requirements of the GDPR.

Depending on the provider's technical infrastructure, data may be processed outside the European Union or European Economic Area.

Where required, appropriate safeguards for such transfers are used in accordance with the GDPR.

We currently do not use cookies or similar technologies for analytics, advertising, behavioural tracking or profiling.

The website may use technically necessary storage or similar technologies where these are required for essential website functionality, security or the operation of the contact form.

Such technologies are not used to create advertising profiles or track visitors across unrelated websites.

If we introduce analytics, advertising or other non-essential technologies in the future, this Privacy Policy and, where required, the website's consent mechanism will be updated before such technologies are used.

We currently do not use web analytics or advertising tracking services such as:

• Google Analytics

Submitting the contact form or contacting us by email does not result in automatic registration for marketing emails.

We currently do not intentionally embed third-party media or interactive services such as YouTube videos, Vimeo videos, Google Maps or external scheduling tools that automatically transmit visitor data to those providers when the website is loaded.

External websites may be linked from the ProductPunks website.

If you follow an external link, the privacy practices of the respective third-party website apply.

We are not responsible for the data processing carried out by independent third-party website operators.

Personal data is not sold to third parties.

Personal data may be disclosed to service providers where this is necessary to operate the website, provide technical infrastructure, deliver email or process enquiries.

Service providers acting on our behalf are engaged in accordance with applicable data protection requirements.

Personal data may also be disclosed where we are legally required to do so.

Some technical service providers may process data in countries outside the European Union or European Economic Area.

Where personal data is transferred to a country for which the European Commission has not issued an adequacy decision, transfers are made only where an appropriate legal basis and safeguards under Chapter V GDPR are available.

Depending on the provider, these safeguards may include Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission or another legally recognised transfer mechanism.

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes for which it was collected.

The applicable retention period depends on the nature of the information and the purpose of processing.

Contact enquiries are generally retained only for as long as necessary to process and respond to the enquiry and any subsequent communication.

Where communication results in a business relationship, statutory commercial or tax retention obligations may apply.

Data may also be retained where necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.

• object to processing based on Article 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR pursuant to Article 21 GDPR;

• withdraw consent at any time with effect for the future where processing is based on consent.

Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal.
