1. General information about data processing

1.1. Processing of personal data and their purpose

Aerodata AG (hereinafter referred to as "Aerodata" or "we") processes personal data of users only to the extent that this is necessary to provide a functional website and our content and services. When visiting our websites, the following data is processed:

  • IP address of the user
  • used browser (type, version, language)
  • used operating system
  • Internet service provider of the user
  • date and time of access to our website
  • files retrieved on our website
  • website from which the user came to our website
  • website that the user accesses through our website

 

The processing and temporary storage of the IP address is necessary to enable delivery of the website to the user's computer. To do this, the user's IP address must be stored for the duration of the session. The log files contain IP addresses or other data that enables a mapping of the user. Storage is done in log files to ensure the functionality of the websites. Moreover, the data are used to optimize our website and to ensure the security of our information technology systems. Any processing of personal data is solely done for these purposes and to the extent necessary to achieve these purposes. Any use of this data for purposes of advertising, customer service and market research does not take place.

 

1.2. Legal basis for the processing of personal data

The processing of personal data of our users is carried out regularly by the user's permission. An exception applies in cases where prior obtaining of consent is not possible for factual reasons and processing of data is permitted by applicable law. The storage of data and logfiles is based on Article 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

 

1.3. Data deletion and storage duration

The personal data of the individuals concerned will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of storage omitted from us. In case of data processing to provide the websites, deletion occurs when the current session ends. In the case of storage of personal data in log files, the deletion will take place by no later than fourteen days. Any further storage is possible if previously the IP addresses of users are deleted or distorted, so that an assignment of the calling client is no longer possible.

2. Cookies

On our websites we use cookies in several places. If a user accesses one of our websites, a cookie can be stored on the user's operating system. A cookie contains a characteristic string that allows a clear identification of the browser when revisiting our web pages. The following data is stored and transmitted in the cookies:

  • Language settings
  • log-in information

 

The purpose of using cookies is a user-friendly design of our websites. The processing of personal data using cookies is based on Article 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. Cookies are stored on the user's computer and transmitted from there to our websites. Users may disable or restrict the transmission of cookies by changing the settings of their Internet browser. Already saved cookies can be deleted at any time. If cookies are disabled for our websites, it may not be possible to use all functions of our websites to the full extend.

3. Contact form and e-mail contact

On our website a contact form is available, which can be used for electronic contact. If a user realizes this possibility, the data entered by him in the input mask are transmitted to us and stored:

  • name
  • company
  • e-mail address
  • individual field for free text
  • IP-address of the user
  • date and time of the transmission

 

Alternatively, contact via the provided e-mail addresses is possible. In this case, we will store the personal data of the user transmitted by e-mail. The legal basis for processing the data is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. If the establishment of contact aims at concluding a contract, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR forms the legal basis. The data will be used exclusively to process the contact and the subsequent communication. In this context, there is no disclosure of the data to third parties. The personal data from the input form of the contact form and those sent by e-mail will be deleted when the respective communication with the user has ended, i.e. as soon as it can be deduced from the circumstances that the facts are finally clarified. The additional personal data collected during the sending process will be deleted at the latest after a period of seven days.

4. Social media

On our websites, we provide a social media plug-in ("plug-in") to the LinkedIn social network, LinkedIn Inc., 2029 Stierlin Court, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. This will connect to the service provider. Data are transmitted related to the browser behavior of the user. When users click on the plug-in, personal data (IP address of the user and the web address (URL) of the page currently visited by the user, including time and location) are transmitted to and processed by the service provider. Further information on data processing can be found in LinkedIn's privacy policy: https://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy?_l=en_US

 

Users, who are members of the aforementioned social networks and do not wish user data to be collected through the respective social network via our websites, must log out of their respective social media account before visiting our websites.

 

On our websites we provide YouTube videos. These are embedded via the integration of the URL with iframes in the extended data protection mode on our web pages. This will replace the domain with the official YouTube Nocookie domain. According to current information of YouTube, by using this variant only information about visitors to the web pages are saved when playing the video, but not by just accessing the embedding web pages. For more information about the collection and use of data by YouTube, as well as the rights to protect users' privacy, see the privacy policy at https://policies.google.com/privacy.

5. Google Maps

Our websites use Google Maps API to visually display geographic information. When using Google Maps, Google also processes data about the use of Maps features by users of the Websites. For more information about Google's data processing, see the Google Privacy Policy at https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en

6. Security measures

Aerodata uses technical and organizational security measures to protect the personal data of users against accidental or intentional manipulation, loss, destruction or access by unauthorized persons. Our security measures are continuously improved in line with technological developments.
