The privacy of you and your customers is important to us.
In the following we describe our data protection principles, which data we collect and for what purpose they are used. Below you will find the formal privacy policy.
We act within the framework of the Bundesdatenschutzgesetz (BDSG, German Federal Privacy Act) and the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). In addition, we refrain from web analytics, embedding social media and external hosting of fonts or images to prevent third-party tracking.
Our services can be tested without registration, with only a few restrictions. For the free trial access, we need your e-mail address and name for authentication. We use the e-mail address exclusively for communication during your trial period. For our paid services, we need more data, such as your billing address. We also use this information only for the necessary communication with you (such as the sending of invoices, or information about important changes to the services and their terms of use).
By using our services, access data is created. Since this data may allow personal identification (for example, via the IP address), we also treat this data under the principle of data avoidance and minimization. This includes direct anonymization and a short storage time. We use this anonymous access data solely for billing purposes, to detect and prevent illegal use and to improve our services.
We will process your personal data (e.g. title, name, address, e-mail address, phone number) solely in accordance with the provisions of the data protection law. The following provisions will inform you of the nature, extent and purpose of the collection, processing and use of personal data. This privacy policy applies only to our websites. If you are directed to other sites via links on our pages, please familiarize yourself with the respective use of your data there.

If necessary, the data may be transferred to third countries, provided that the special conditions of article 44 et seq. GDPR are met.
(2) Without your expressed consent or in the absence of a legal basis, your personal data will not be shared with any third parties not participating in the performance of the contract.
