Privacy policy
Privacy Policy
The protection of your personal data is of particular importance to us. We therefore process your data exclusively in accordance with legal regulations (GDPR, Telecommunications Act 2003). In this privacy policy, we inform you about the most important aspects of data processing on our website.
Data Storage Contact
If you contact us via a form on the website or by email, the data you provide (personal data including your IP address) will be stored by us or on our servers (see server log files) for the purpose of processing your inquiry. This data will be used exclusively in connection with the inquiry, stored only for the duration of an active business relationship, and will not be shared with third parties. Your email addresses and personal information will only be transferred, stored, and used in the newsletter system (see the Newsletter section) with your express consent.
Cookies
This website uses so-called cookies. These are small text files that are stored on your device with the help of your browser. They do not cause any damage. We use cookies to make our service user-friendly. Some cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. They enable us to recognize your browser the next time you visit. If you do not want this, you can set your browser to inform you about the use of cookies and only allow this on a case-by-case basis. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of our website. Cookies that are essential for the proper operation of this website are called "functional cookies" and cannot be deactivated.

Server Log Files
When visitors access the website, log data is collected from the server. The data is stored and processed by the hosting provider, Managed-Office IT Services GmbH, Triesterstraße 10/221, 2351 Wiener Neudorf, https://www.managed-office.at, on servers in Austria. This data includes your device's IP address and operating system, the data, access time, browser type, and browser request, including the source of the request (referrer). Log data, including IP addresses, is retained for a period of 6 months. The data is used internally for forensic investigations in the event of hacking attacks or for other security-relevant analyses. This guarantees the security of your data on our systems and ensures that countermeasures are quickly taken to protect your data in suspected cases. The legality of this processing therefore arises from Art. 6 GDPR.
Newsletter
To inform website users and interested parties about news, we send an email newsletter to subscribers at regular intervals (usually once a month).
Registration / Consent
You have the option of subscribing to our free newsletter via the website. By entering your email address in the registration form, you declare that you agree to receive the newsletter and to the necessary storage of your data. The legal basis for data processing for the purpose of sending the newsletter is your consent. We will process your data for the purpose of sending the newsletter until you revoke your consent.
Data Storage
A sending service is used to process newsletter distribution, which is handled via their servers. Only the data you provide and necessary for delivery is stored. By collecting open rates, deletions, and clicks, the user behavior of recipients is analyzed anonymously; IP addresses may also be transmitted and stored. This data is stored indefinitely (until deletion is requested). Personal data is secure and will not be shared with or sold to third parties.
Revocation / Cancellation / Deletion
You can revoke your consent to receive the newsletter at your email address at any time. In every newsletter, you have the option to unsubscribe from the newsletter or manage your newsletter subscription (e.g., sign up for another newsletter list) via a clearly visible link. Alternatively, you can send an email requesting your unsubscribe to office@carpesolem.at. If, in addition to unsubscribing from the newsletter, you would like to have your data completely deleted, please also send an email to office@carpesolem.at. The revocation does not affect the legality of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until the revocation.
Google Analytics
Our website uses functions of the web analysis service Google Analytics. Cookies are used to enable an analysis of the website's use by its users. The information generated in this way is transferred to the provider's (Google) server and stored there.
You can prevent this by configuring your browser so that cookies are not saved. Data processing is carried out on the basis of the legal provisions of Section 96 (3) TKG and Article 6 (1) (a) (consent) and/or (f) (legitimate interest) of the GDPR. Our concern within the meaning of the GDPR (legitimate interest) is to improve our offering and our website.
Because the privacy of our users is important to us, user data is pseudonymized, meaning personal IP addresses are anonymized. By using this website, you consent to the processing of the data collected about you by Google in the manner and for the purposes described above. You can object to the collection and storage of data at any time with future effect. Information on data protection can be found at https://policies.google.com/privacy .
Google Analytics tracking is only activated after consent.
Meta Pixel (Facebook Pixel)
This website uses the "Meta Pixel" to measure visitor interactions on this website. The provider of this service is Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland. However, the collected data is also transferred by Meta/Facebook to the USA and other third countries.
The behavior of site visitors can thus be tracked after they have been redirected to the provider's website by clicking on a Facebook ad. This allows the effectiveness of social media ads (on Facebook & Instagram) to be measured. For the website operator, the data collected is anonymous, and no conclusions can be drawn about the identity of the users. However, the data is stored and processed by Facebook, allowing a connection to the respective user profile and allowing Facebook to use the data for its own advertising purposes, in accordance with the Facebook Data Use Policy (https://de-de.facebook.com/about/privacy/). This allows Facebook to place advertisements on Facebook pages and outside of Facebook. We, as the site operator, cannot influence this use of data.
The use of this service is based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR and Section 25 (1) TTDSG. This consent can be revoked at any time. You can find further information on protecting your privacy in Facebook's privacy policy: https://de-de.facebook.com/about/privacy/.
The meta pixel will only be loaded after you have consented to marketing cookies on this website.
Facebook Conversion API
Our website uses Facebook Conversion API, a server-side tracking tool for user analysis.
Facebook Conversion API collects and stores usage data, such as page views, length of stay, device information, IP addresses, and locations. Data processing may also include email addresses, telephone numbers, gender, date of birth, first and last names, address, and user IDs. The collected data allows us to transmit user behavior to Facebook for analysis and to optimize advertisements accordingly.
The collected data is transmitted to Facebook, Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland. Data is also processed in the USA. We use the standard contractual clauses approved by the EU Commission as the basis for this data processing. Consent for data processing by Conversion API can be revoked at any time. The Facebook Conversion API will only be activated after consent to marketing cookies.

Google Fonts
Google Fonts are used and hosted exclusively locally on the web server. There is no connection to Google servers. All rights to the fonts are owned by Google.
Font Awesome Icons
Font Awesome Icons are used and provided via a plugin that embeds the icons, which are hosted locally. No connection to Font Awesome is established. All rights to the icons are owned by Font Awesome.
Google Maps
This website uses the Google Maps map service provided by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, via an API or IFRAME on some pages. To use the features of Google Maps, it is necessary to save your IP address. This information is transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. The provider of this website has no influence on this data transfer. Google Maps is used in the interest of making the locations we list on our website easy to find. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of the GDPR.
More information on how user data is handled can be found in Google's privacy policy: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/.
Google Maps will only load after you have consented to tracking cookies.
Social Plugins (YouTube)
Social Plugins are used on this website to embed YouTube videos. These services are integrated via a plug-in, and connections are established to the companies Facebook Inc., Instagram Inc., and YouTube. When you access a page on our website that contains such a plug-in, your browser establishes a direct connection to the Facebook & Instagram servers. The content of the plug-in is transmitted directly to your browser by the respective provider and integrated into the page.
By integrating the plug-in, the providers receive the information that your browser has accessed the corresponding page on our website, even if you do not have a profile or are not currently logged in. This information (including your IP address) is transmitted from your browser directly to a server of the respective provider in the USA and stored there. If you are logged in to one of the services, the providers can directly associate your visit to our website with your profile on Facebook or Instagram. If you interact with the plugins, for example by clicking the "Like" or "+1" button, the corresponding information is also transmitted directly to a server of the provider and stored there.
For information about the purpose and scope of data collection, the further processing and use of the data by the providers, as well as your rights and settings options for protecting your privacy, please refer to the providers' privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy. If you do not want YouTube/Google to directly assign the data collected via our website to your profile on the respective service, you must log out of the respective service before visiting our website. You can also completely prevent the loading of the plugins using add-ons for your browser.
Social plugins are only loaded on the corresponding pages after consent.
Wordfence Security Plugin
This website is secured with the "Wordfence Security" service, operated by Defiant Inc., 800 5th Ave., Suite 4100, Seattle, WA 98104, USA. Use is based on legitimate interest within the meaning of the GDPR.
This website uses Wordfence Security to protect against viruses and malware and to ward off attacks by criminals. The plugin uses cookies to detect whether the website is actually being visited by a person or a robot. To protect against so-called brute-force attacks (numerous automated login attempts from the same identity) or hacker comment spam, IP addresses are temporarily stored on this site's web server. IP addresses deemed safe are added to a whitelist. Wordfence Security secures this website and thus also protects visitors from viruses and malware. This represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of the GDPR. The plug-in's Live Traffic View option (real-time live traffic) is limited to security-relevant listings. Wordfence does not participate in the Wordfence security network, and therefore no data is shared with third parties.
Further information on the collection and use of data by Wordfence Security can be found in the provider's privacy policy: https://www.wordfence.com/privacy-policy/.
Your Rights
You generally have the right to information, rectification, erasure, restriction, data portability, revocation, and objection. If you believe that the processing of your data violates data protection law or that your data protection rights have otherwise been violated in any way, you can lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority. In Austria, this is the Data Protection Authority.
