Thank you for your interest in our company. Data protection and privacy are of particular high priority for the management of Declarium GmbH. The Declarium website can generally be used without providing personal data. If someone is interested in our services or wishes to make use of special services via our website, it may be necessary to process personal data.

The controller responsible for processing data under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is:

The website of Declarium GmbH collects a series of general data and information when a data subject or automated system calls up the website. This general data and information is stored in the server log files. The (1) browser types and versions used, (2) the operating system used by the accessing system, (3) the website from which an accessing system accesses our website (so-called referrer), (4) the sub-websites which are accessed via an accessing system on our website, (5) the date and time of access to the website, (6) an Internet Protocol address (IP address), (7) the Internet service provider of the accessing system and (8) other similar data and information used for security purposes in the event of attacks on our information technology systems.

When using these general data and information, Declarium GmbH does not draw any conclusions about the data subject. Rather, this information is needed to (1) deliver the content of our website correctly, (2) optimize the content of our website as well as its advertisement, (3) ensure the long-term viability of our information technology systems and website technology, and (4) provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for criminal prosecution in case of a cyber-attack.

The legal basis for data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR. Our legitimate interest follows from the purposes for data collection listed above. Under no circumstances do we use the data collected for the purpose of drawing conclusions about your person.

The personal data collected from you will be used for the following purposes:

• To provide our services and functions of our website.
• To fulfill our contractual obligations and services.
• To process your requests and for communication with you.
• To improve our website and services by analyzing usage data.
• To ensure the security and stability of our IT systems.

Your personal data is processed on the following legal bases:

• Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR: Consent of the data subject.
• Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR: Performance of a contract or in order to take steps prior to entering into a contract.
• Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR: Fulfillment of a legal obligation.
• Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR: Safeguarding the legitimate interests of our company, e.g. to improve our services and the security of our IT systems.

Your personal data will only be passed on to third parties if this is necessary to fulfill our contractual obligations, if you have expressly consented or if there is a legal obligation. The recipients of your data may include:

• Authorities and state institutions, insofar as we are legally obliged to do so.
• Partner companies and other third parties if this is necessary to fulfill our contractual obligations or if there are legitimate interests.
• Service providers that we need to provide our services (e.g. hosting providers, email service providers).

We ensure that all external service providers who process data on our behalf are contractually obliged to comply with the applicable data protection regulations. Your personal data will only be transferred to third countries if an appropriate level of data protection is guaranteed or you have expressly consented to this.

The website of Declarium GmbH contains information that enables quick electronic contact to our enterprise, as well as direct communication with us, which also includes a general address of the so-called electronic mail (email address). If a data subject contacts the controller by email or via a contact form, the personal data transmitted by the data subject is automatically stored.

The data transmitted via the contact form is processed through the Web3Forms service. Web3Forms forwards the form data to us by email without permanently storing it. This data is processed on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR if your request is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures.

We will retain the data you provide on the contact form until you request its deletion, revoke your consent for its storage, or the purpose for its storage no longer pertains. Statutory provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, this site uses SSL or TLS encryption.

This website stores a technically necessary first-party cookie to remember the privacy settings you have selected. We use Google Analytics 4 and Cloudflare Web Analytics for optional audience measurement. We also use Google Ads to plan, run and evaluate advertising campaigns. Google Analytics is linked to our Google Ads account. Optional services and purposes are activated only in accordance with your consent.

You can change or withdraw your selection at any time using the Cookie Settings link in the footer. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal.

This website uses Google Analytics 4, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. Google Analytics helps us understand how visitors use our website so that we can improve its content, usability and performance.

Google Analytics may process information about page views, sessions, interactions, approximate geographic location, browsers and devices. It uses first-party cookies such as _ga and _ga_<container-id> to distinguish users and sessions. These cookies have a default lifetime of up to two years. According to Google, IP addresses are used to derive approximate location information and discarded before they are stored.

We use Google Ads to plan, run and evaluate advertising campaigns and have linked Google Analytics to our Google Ads account. If you consent to advertising measurement, measurement data and events such as a successfully submitted contact request may be made available to Google Ads to attribute and evaluate campaigns. If we use audience features, this data may also be used to create audiences. We do not send contact-form details such as names or email addresses to Google Analytics or Google Ads. Google may also process data in the United States and other countries and uses the safeguards described in its data processing terms.

This website also uses Cloudflare Web Analytics, provided by Cloudflare, Inc. This service does not use cookies and collects aggregated information about page views and website performance.

Google Analytics and Cloudflare Web Analytics are loaded only after you consent to audience measurement. Google Analytics data is used for advertising measurement, audience creation or ad personalization in Google Ads only with your additional consent. Your selection is communicated to Google through Google Consent Mode. The processing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. You can withdraw your consent at any time in the Cookie Settings.
