Designation of the Responsible Entity

The responsible entity for data processing on this website is:

SEOFUXX
Europaplatz 2
10557 Berlin
Managing Director: Dipl.Wirt.-Ing. Nick Herrmann

The responsible entity decides alone or together with others about the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g., names, contact details, cookie IDs, device identifiers, etc.).

Revocation of Your Consent to Data Processing

Some data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can revoke your previously given consent at any time. An informal notification by email, through our consent management system, or via the corresponding link in our emails is sufficient for revocation. The lawfulness of data processing carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

Right to Lodge a Complaint with the Competent Supervisory Authority

As a data subject, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority in case of a data protection violation. The competent supervisory authority for data protection matters is the state data protection officer of the federal state where our company is headquartered. For Berlin, this is the Berlin Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information. A list of data protection officers and their contact details can be found here: https://www.bfdi.bund.de/DE/Service/Anschriften/Laender/Laender-node.html.

Right to Data Portability

You have the right to have data that we process automatically based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract handed over to you or to third parties in a structured, common, and machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of data to another controller, this will only be done to the extent that it is technically feasible. You can export your data through your user account or submit a corresponding request to us.

Right to Information, Correction, Blocking, Deletion

You have the right at any time, within the framework of applicable legal provisions, to free information about your stored personal data, the origin of the data, its recipients, and the purpose of data processing, and if applicable, a right to correction, blocking, or deletion of this data. You can contact us at any time regarding this and other questions about personal data through the contact options listed in the imprint. Many of these functions can also be managed directly in your user account.

SSL or TLS Encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content that you send to us as the site operator, our website uses SSL or TLS encryption (currently TLS 1.3). This means that data you transmit via this website cannot be read by third parties. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the "https://" address line in your browser and the lock symbol in the browser line.

Server Log Files

The website provider automatically collects and stores information in server log files that your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:

  • Visited page on our domain
  • Date and time of server request
  • Browser type and browser version
  • Operating system used
  • Referrer URL
  • Hostname of the accessing computer
  • IP address (anonymized after 24 hours)
  • Amount of data transferred
  • Access status/HTTP status code

No merging of this data with other data sources takes place. The basis for data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR (legitimate interest in ensuring system security and stability). The data is automatically deleted after 30 days.

Cookie Management and Consent Tool

Our website uses a modern consent management system that gives you granular control over the use of cookies and other tracking technologies. You can adjust your settings at any time via the cookie banner or in your browser's privacy settings.

Data Transmission in Contract Conclusion for Services

Personal data is only transmitted to third parties if there is a necessity within the framework of contract processing. Third parties can be, for example, payment service providers, hosting providers, or specialized service providers. No further transmission of data takes place, or only if you have expressly consented to it.

The basis for data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR, which permits the processing of data for the fulfillment of a contract or pre-contractual measures.

Newsletter Data

To send our newsletter, we need an email address from you. Verification of the provided email address via double opt-in is necessary, and receipt of the newsletter must be consented to. Supplementary data such as name or preferences are only collected with your consent or are voluntary. The use of data is exclusively for sending the newsletter and its optimization.

The data provided during newsletter registration is processed exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR). You can revoke your previously given consent at any time. A click on the "unsubscribe" link in the newsletter, an informal notification by email, or management in your user account is sufficient for revocation. The lawfulness of data processing operations already carried out remains unaffected by the revocation.

Data entered to set up the subscription will be deleted after a retention period of 30 days in case of unsubscription. Should this data have been transmitted to us for other purposes and elsewhere, it will remain with us.

PayPal

Our website enables payment via PayPal. The provider of the payment service is PayPal (Europe) S.à.r.l. et Cie, S.C.A., 22-24 Boulevard Royal, L-2449 Luxembourg.

When you pay with PayPal, the payment data you enter is transmitted to PayPal. The transmission of your data to PayPal is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR (consent) and Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR (processing for the fulfillment of a contract). You can revoke your previously given consent at any time. Past data processing operations remain effective upon revocation.

Google Ads and Google Conversion Tracking

Our website uses Google Ads (formerly Google AdWords). The provider is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Google Ads is an online advertising program. As part of the online advertising program, we work with conversion tracking. After clicking on an ad placed by Google, a cookie for conversion tracking is set. Cookies are small text files that your web browser stores on your device. Google Ads cookies expire after 30 days and do not serve to personally identify users.

Google and we can recognize from the cookie that you clicked on an ad and were redirected to our website. Each Google Ads customer receives a different cookie. Cookies cannot be tracked across Google Ads customer websites.

Conversion cookies are used to create conversion statistics for Google Ads customers who use conversion tracking. Google Ads customers learn how many users clicked on their ad and were redirected to pages with a conversion tracking tag. However, Google Ads customers do not receive information that enables personal identification of users.

If you do not want to participate in tracking, you can object to such use. Here, the conversion cookie must be deactivated in the browser's user settings or via our cookie management system.

The storage of "conversion cookies" is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. We as website operators have a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior to optimize our web offering and advertising.

Details about Google Ads and Google Conversion Tracking can be found in Google's privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy

With a modern web browser, you can monitor, restrict, or prevent the setting of cookies. Deactivating cookies may result in limited functionality of our website.

Google Web Fonts

Our website uses web fonts from Google. The provider is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Through the use of these web fonts, it becomes possible to present you with the desired representation of our website, regardless of which fonts are available to you locally. This is done by retrieving Google Web Fonts from a Google server in the USA and the associated transmission of your data to Google. This includes your IP address and which page you visited on our site.

The use of Google Web Fonts is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. As the operator of this website, we have a legitimate interest in the optimal presentation and transmission of our web presence.

Google is certified for the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. This privacy agreement is intended to ensure compliance with the data protection level applicable in the EU.

Details about Google Web Fonts can be found at: https://fonts.google.com/ and further information in Google's privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy

YouTube (Enhanced Privacy Settings)

Our website embeds videos from YouTube. The operator is Google Ireland Limited. We use YouTube in enhanced privacy mode, which only activates the storage of user information after playing the videos.

The integration is based on our legitimate interest in an appealing design of our website (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR).

Artificial Intelligence and Automated Decisions

We use AI-powered systems for analyzing user behavior, personalizing content, and spam detection. These systems do not make automated decisions that would have legal effects for you or similarly significantly affect you.

International Data Transfers

Some of our service providers are located in third countries outside the EU. Data transfer only occurs to countries with an adequate level of data protection or based on EU standard contractual clauses or other suitable guarantees according to Art. 46 GDPR.

Retention Periods

We store personal data only as long as it is necessary for the respective purposes or as prescribed by legal retention periods. After expiration of retention periods, data is routinely deleted, unless it is required for contract fulfillment or contract initiation.

Data Protection in Applications

For application procedures, we process your data exclusively for the purpose of filling positions based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR or § 26 BDSG. Application documents are deleted after completion of the procedure, or in case of hiring, retained after termination of employment according to legal requirements.
