Privacy policy

The protection of your personal data is of particular importance to us. We therefore process your data exclusively in accordance with legal requirements (GDPR, TKG 2021). In this privacy policy, we inform you about the most important aspects of data processing in connection with our website and our services.

Use of artificial intelligence to process emails

We use generative AI tools, specifically OpenAI’s ChatGPT Business, the Mistral API, Anthropic’s Claude, and Microsoft Copilot, to support communication and improve efficiency when handling emails. These tools help us formulate responses more quickly and accurately and streamline routine tasks.

Type of data processed

We process personal data that you provide to us in the course of communication. This may include names, contact information, e-mail content and other information provided by you.

Purpose of the processing

The data is processed by the AI tools solely for the purpose of facilitating communication, answering inquiries more quickly and making the workflow more efficient. The content generated by the AI is always checked manually to ensure its quality.

Legal basis of the processing

The legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR (legitimate interest), whereby our legitimate interest lies in increasing efficiency and improving our services. In special cases, we will obtain your express consent if this is necessary.

Order processing and data transfer to third countries

We have entered into data processing agreements with the providers of the AI tools to ensure that your personal data is processed in compliance with the GDPR. Microsoft Copilot is provided by Microsoft Ireland, which ensures that data processing takes place within the EU and complies with European data protection regulations. ChatGPT is provided by OpenAI Ireland, although its servers are located in the United States. As a result, some data processing takes place outside the EU. The transfer of personal data to this service is based on standard contractual clauses to ensure an adequate level of data protection.

Data security and minimization

We ensure that only the personal data necessary for the respective purpose is processed. Technical and organizational measures ensure that your data is protected and that only authorized persons have access to this data.

Contact us

If you contact us using the form on the website or by e-mail, the data you provide will be stored by us for a period of 36 months for the purpose of processing the inquiry and in the event of follow-up questions. We will not pass on this data without your consent.

Transparency and rights of data subjects

You have the right to obtain information about the processing of your personal data at any time, as well as the right to rectification, erasure or restriction of processing. If you have any questions about the use of AI tools or the processing of your data, you can contact us at any time.

In principle, you have the rights to information, correction, deletion, restriction, data portability, revocation and objection. If you believe that the processing of your data violates data protection law or your data protection rights have been violated in any other way, you can lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority. In Austria, this is the data protection authority. Data Protection Authority Barichgasse 40-42 1030 Vienna Tel: +43 1 52 152-0 E-Mail: dsb@dsb.gv.at

YouTube Videos with a Two-Click Solution

On some pages, we feature videos from YouTube. The provider for users in the European Economic Area is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

In particular, your IP address, browser and device information, the time of your visit, and, if applicable, your interactions with the player are transmitted to Google. Google may use cookies or similar technologies in this process.

The legal basis is your consent pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR and Section 165(3) of the TKG 2021. Your consent applies only to the selected video and is not stored by us. Without your consent, you cannot play the embedded video; alternatively, you can open the provided link directly on YouTube.

Google may also process data in the United States.
