Privacy Policy
Your privacy matters to us. Learn how we handle your data.
1. Responsible Party
Fosanetix UG (haftungsbeschränkt)
Represented by the Managing Director: Almuth Fosanelli
The above-mentioned legal entity is responsible for data processing on this website.
2. General Information on Data Processing
We take the protection of your personal data very seriously.
Your personal data is treated confidentially and in accordance with applicable data protection laws and this privacy policy.
Personal data includes all data by which you can be personally identified, such as name, email address, or phone number.
We only process your data insofar as it is necessary to provide a functioning website, process your request, or comply with legal obligations.
The legal basis for data processing is in particular:
- Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR – for the performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures
- Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR – for the protection of legitimate interests (e.g., efficient communication with interested parties)
- Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR – based on your consent (e.g., when using the contact form)
3. Data Collection on this Website
a) Server Log Files
When you access this website, information that your browser transmits is automatically recorded by the hosting provider.
In particular, this includes:
- Browser type and version
- Operating system used
- Referrer URL
- Hostname of the accessing computer
- Time of the server request
- IP address
This data is technically required to provide the website, ensure system security, and potentially analyze technical issues.
This data is not merged with other data sources.
Legal basis: Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR (legitimate interest in secure and error-free website provision)
b) Contact Form
When you send inquiries through our contact form, your information from the form (name, email address, possibly phone number, message text) is stored for the purpose of processing your request.
Processing of data entered into the contact form is based on Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR (pre-contractual measure) or – if no contractual relationship ensues – Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR (legitimate interest in efficient communication).
We do not share this data with third parties.
Your information will be deleted once your request has been completely processed and no legal retention requirement exists.
4. Sharing of Data with Third Parties
We do not transmit your personal data to third parties, except:
- if you have expressly consented (Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR)
- if it is legally permissible and necessary for contract performance (Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR)
- or if we are legally required to do so (Art. 6 (1) (c) GDPR)
5. Links
The website contains links to other websites ("external links"). These websites are subject to the liability of the respective site operators. When linking to the external links, no legal violations were apparent. The provider has no influence on the current and future design of the linked pages. Permanent monitoring of the external links is not reasonable for the provider without concrete indications of legal violations. Upon becoming aware of legal violations, the affected external links will be deleted immediately.
6. Integration of Google Maps
A map excerpt from the Google Maps service is integrated on this website to show you our location and make it easier to find us.
The integration takes place exclusively on the basis of your consent in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR. Without your consent, the map will not be loaded, but will only be displayed in a deactivated form.
Only when you consent to the integration will a connection be established to Google's servers. Personal data, in particular your IP address as well as information about your usage behavior, may be transmitted to Google.
Google may use cookies or similar technologies for this purpose.
It is possible that the data may also be transferred to servers in the USA. There is currently no level of data protection for the USA comparable to that of the EU. It cannot therefore be ruled out that US authorities will gain access to the transmitted data.
The provider of Google Maps is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
Further information on data processing by Google can be found at: https://policies.google.com/privacy
You can revoke your consent at any time by deactivating the map via the toggle switch.
7. Data Retention Period
Personal data is deleted once the purpose of processing ceases or you revoke your consent, provided no legal retention requirements (e.g., commercial or tax law) apply.
8. Your Rights as a Data Subject
You have the following rights under the GDPR:
- Right to access your stored data (Art. 15 GDPR)
- Right to rectification of incorrect data (Art. 16 GDPR)
- Right to erasure ("right to be forgotten", Art. 17 GDPR)
- Right to restrict processing (Art. 18 GDPR)
- Right to data portability (Art. 20 GDPR)
- Right to object to processing (Art. 21 GDPR)
To exercise your rights, a simple notice via email to legal@fosanetix.com is sufficient.
9. Withdrawal of Consent
Many data processing activities are only possible with your explicit consent.
You may revoke any consent you have given at any time.
The legality of data processing prior to revocation remains unaffected.
10. Right to File a Complaint with a Supervisory Authority
In case of data protection violations, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a competent supervisory authority.
In particular, the following authority is responsible:
Hamburg Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information (HmbBfDI)
Ludwig-Erhard-Straße 22, 20459 Hamburg
11. Data Security
We implement technical and organizational measures to protect your data against manipulation, loss, destruction, or unauthorized access.
Our security measures are regularly reviewed and updated to the current state of technology.
