3. Collection of personal data

The following information gives a general overview of how your personal data is processed when you visit this website. Personal data is any data that can identify you personally.

Some data is collected when you provide it to us. If you contact us by email or through a contact form, the data you provide, such as your email address, name, and telephone number if applicable, is stored so we can answer your request. The legal basis is your consent under Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. We delete this data when storage is no longer required, or restrict processing if statutory retention obligations apply.

When you use this website, we collect only the personal data your browser sends to our server. When you access our website, we collect the following data, which is technically necessary to display the website and ensure stability and security. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR:

  • IP address
  • Date and time of the request
  • Time zone difference to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)
  • Content of the request, meaning the specific page
  • Access status / HTTP status code
  • Amount of data transferred
  • Website from which the request comes
  • Browser
  • Operating system and interface
  • Language and version of the browser software

4. Cookies

In addition to the data mentioned above, cookies may be stored on your device when you use our website. Cookies are data records stored on your device that give the website operator certain information. They help improve the usability and effectiveness of the website. Section 6 provides details on third-party cookies and services we use.

5. Your rights

You have extensive rights regarding the processing of your personal data. You have a right of access and may request correction, deletion, or blocking of your personal data where necessary. You may also request restriction of processing and have the right to object and the right to data portability.

To exercise your rights or receive more information, contact us at kontakt@builderz.org. If processing is based on your consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time. The lawfulness of processing before withdrawal remains unaffected. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.

6. Analytics and third-party tools

When you visit this website, your browsing behavior may be analyzed statistically, mainly through analytics tools. These tools may be provided by third parties and can collect and track certain data about visitor characteristics and activity on our website.

We may use tools from companies based in the USA or other third countries that are not considered secure under data protection law. If these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to and processed in those countries. Please note that these countries may not guarantee a level of data protection equivalent to the EU.

6.1 Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to create pseudonymized usage profiles so we can design our websites according to user needs. Google Analytics uses targeted cookies stored on your device and read by us. This lets us recognize returning visitors, count them, and understand how often our websites are accessed by different users. Processing is based on Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR.

Because IP anonymization is active on our website, Google shortens your IP address within the European Union before processing. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address sent to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. More information is available at policies.google.com/privacy.

You can prevent Google Analytics tracking by downloading and installing the browser plugin available here: tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

6.2 Hotjar

This website uses functions of Hotjar, a web analytics service provided by Hotjar Ltd., Level 2, St. Julian's Business Centre, 3, Elia Zammit Street, St. Julian's STJ 1000, Malta. We use Hotjar to better understand user needs and improve the offer and experience on this website.

Hotjar technology helps us understand user experience, for example how much time users spend on which pages, which links they click, and what they like or dislike. Hotjar uses cookies and other technologies to collect data about user behavior and devices. Use is based on your consent under Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR.

You can disable analysis by activating the “Do Not Track” function in your browser. More information is available at hotjar.com/legal/compliance/opt-out.

6.3 LinkedIn Insight Tag

We use conversion tracking on our website with the LinkedIn Insight Tag, a tool from LinkedIn Ireland, Wilton Plaza, Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Ireland. This informs LinkedIn that you visited our website and may include your IP address. It helps us improve ad placement. The legal basis is your consent under Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR.

More information is available at linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy. You can object to LinkedIn analysis of your usage behavior at linkedin.com/psettings/guest-controls/retargeting-opt-out.

6.4 Video embedding (Mux)

Videos on this website may be embedded through Mux (Mux, Inc., 12 East 49th Street, New York, NY 10017, USA). When videos are played, Mux may collect technical data such as your IP address and device information to optimize video delivery. Data transfer to the USA is based on EU standard contractual clauses. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, our legitimate interest in reliable website display.

7. Disclosure of data to third parties

We may share information, including email address, name, telephone number if applicable, and data collected in connection with website use, with third-party service providers who process information on our behalf. This is done to enable internal business processes such as email delivery, IT services, and customer services. Under our agreements, these providers must process the data securely and only according to our instructions.

Your data may also be transferred to organizations in other parts of the world. Because their data protection laws may not match the standards of your home country, we transfer data only where an appropriate level of protection exists.

8. Hosting

This website is provided through external hosting providers. Technically necessary data, including IP addresses and page views, is processed to display the website reliably, securely, and with good performance. Use is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, our legitimate interest in reliable website display.

9. Contact and inquiries

If you contact us by email at kontakt@builderz.org to schedule a first call or request an offer, your information is stored to process your inquiry. We do not share this data without your consent. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR.

10. Storage period

We process and store your personal data primarily for the period required for the relevant purpose. This may include periods for contract initiation and contract performance.

On this basis, personal data is usually deleted as part of fulfilling our contractual and/or statutory obligations unless temporary further processing is necessary for the following purposes:

  • Compliance with statutory retention obligations, for example under the German Commercial Code (Section 257(4) HGB) and the German Fiscal Code (Section 147(3), (4) AO). The periods set out in those rules can be up to ten years.
  • Preservation of evidence within limitation periods. Under Sections 194 et seq. BGB, these periods can be up to 30 years, with the regular limitation period being three years.

If you make a legitimate deletion request or withdraw your consent to data processing, your data will be deleted unless we have other legally permissible reasons to store your personal data.
