The following notes provide a simple overview of what happens to your personal data when you visit our website. Personal data is any data by which you can be personally identified. For detailed information on the subject of data protection, please refer to our privacy policy listed below this text.
Who is responsible for data collection on this website?
Data processing on this website is carried out by the website operator. You can find his contact details in the imprint of this website.
How do we collect your data?
Your data is collected on the one hand by you providing it to us. This can be, for example, data that you enter in a contact form.
Other data is automatically collected by our IT systems when you visit the website. This is mainly technical data (e.g., internet browser, operating system, or time of page view). The collection of this data takes place automatically as soon as you enter our website.
What do we use your data for?
Part of the data is collected to ensure error-free provision of the website. Other data may be used to analyse your user behaviour.
What rights do you have regarding your data?
You have the right to receive information about the origin, recipient and purpose of your stored personal data free of charge at any time. You also have the right to request the correction, blocking, or deletion of this data. For this purpose as well as for further questions on the subject of data protection, you can contact us at any time at the address given in the imprint. Furthermore, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority.
When visiting our website, your surfing behaviour can be statistically evaluated. This is done primarily with cookies and with so-called analysis programs. The analysis of your surfing behaviour is usually anonymous; the surfing behaviour cannot be traced back to you. You can object to this analysis or prevent it by not using certain tools. You can find detailed information on this in the following data protection declaration.
You can object to this analysis. We will inform you about the objection options in this privacy policy.
The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this data protection declaration.
When you use this website, various personal data are collected. Personal data is data that can be used to identify you personally. This privacy policy explains what data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this is done.
We would like to point out that data transmission on the Internet (e.g., communication by email) can have security gaps. A complete protection of the data against access by third parties is not possible.
The data controller for this website is:
Spirit Link GmbH
Röthelheimallee H5
Allee am Röthelheimpark 41
D-91052 Erlangen
Phone: +49 (0) 91 31 / 97 792-0

The controller is the natural or legal person who alone or jointly with others determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data (e.g. names, e-mail addresses, etc.).
Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can revoke an already given consent at any time. For this purpose, an informal communication by e-mail to us is sufficient. The legality of the data processing carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.
In the event of violations of data protection law, the person concerned has the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority. The competent supervisory authority for data protection issues is the state data protection commissioner of the federal state in which our company is based. A list of the data protection officers and their contact details can be found at the following link: https://www.bfdi.bund.de/DE/Infothek/Anschriften_Links/anschriften_links-node.html.
You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfilment of a contract handed over to you or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done insofar as it is technically feasible.
This site uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or enquiries that you send to us as the site operator. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser line.
If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.
Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipient and the purpose of data processing and, if necessary, a right to correction, blocking, or deletion of this data. For this purpose, as well as for further questions on the subject of personal data, you can contact us at any time at the address given in the imprint.
The use of contact data published within the framework of the imprint obligation for the purpose of sending advertising and information material not expressly requested is hereby prohibited. The operators of the pages expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of the unsolicited sending of advertising information, such as spam e-mails.

We use cookies on our website. Cookies are text files that are stored in the Internet browser or by the Internet browser on the user's computer system. When you visit a website, a cookie may be stored on your operating system. This contains a characteristic string of characters that allows the browser to be uniquely identified when the website is called up again.
We use cookies to make our website more user-friendly. Some elements of our website require that the browser can be identified even after a page has changed.
The legal basis for the storage of cookies, device identifiers and similar tracking technologies or for the storage of information in the end user's terminal equipment and access to this information is the European ePrivacy Directive in conjunction with the Act on the Regulation of Data Protection and the Protection of Privacy in Telecommunications and Telemedia (TDDDG).
Please note that the legal basis for the processing of the personal data collected in this context then results from the GDPR (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 GDPR). The relevant legal basis for the processing of personal data in each specific case can be found below on the respective cookie or on the respective processing itself.
The primary legal basis for the storage of information in the end user's terminal equipment – in particular for the storage of cookies – is your consent, § 25 para. 1 sentence 1 TDDDG. Consent is given when you visit our website – although of course this does not have to be given – and can be revoked at any time in the cookie settings.
Pursuant to Section 25 (2) No. 2 TDDDG, consent is not required if the storage of information in the end user's terminal equipment or access to information already stored in the end user's terminal equipment is absolutely necessary for the provider of a telemedia service to be able to provide a telemedia service expressly requested by the user. In the cookie settings, you can see which cookies are to be classified as absolutely necessary (often referred to as "technically necessary cookies"), therefore fall under the exception of § 25 para. 2 TDDDG and therefore do not require consent.
When cookies are used, the following data is stored and transmitted:
Language
Log-in information
The legal basis for the processing of personal data using cookies results from Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The purpose of using the technically necessary cookies is to simplify the use of our website.
We would like to point out that individual functions of our website can only be offered with the use of cookies. These are the following applications:
Inheritance of language settings
We do not use user data collected by technically necessary cookies to create user profiles.
Cookies are stored on the user's computer and transmitted by the user to our site. As a user, you therefore have control over the use of cookies. You can restrict or disable the transmission of cookies by making changes in the settings of your internet browser. Stored cookies can also be deleted there. Please note that you may not be able to use all the functions of our website if you disable cookies.
The provider of the pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:
This data is not merged with other data sources.
The basis for data processing is Art. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO, which permits the processing of data for the fulfilment of a contract or pre-contractual measures.
This website is hosted on Webflow's Content Delivery Network (CDN). This is a service of Webflow Inc, 398 11th Street, 2nd Floor, San Francisco, California, 94103. The Webflow CDN makes duplicates of a website's data available on various Webflow servers distributed worldwide. This results in faster website loading times, higher reliability, protection against brute force attacks and increased protection against data loss. A large part of the elements and the source code of this website are retrieved from the Webflow CDN when the page is called up. Through this retrieval, your IP address is transferred anonymously to Webflow servers in other EU countries and stored there for 24 hours. This anonymised storage for 24 hours serves as protection against brute force attacks. Tracking or other further processing of this data does not take place. The use of the Webflow CDN is in the interest of higher reliability of the website, increased protection against data loss, protection against brute force attacks and better loading speed of this website. This represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f DSGVO.
Webflow Inc. with headquarters in the USA is certified for the us-European data protection agreement "Privacy Shield", which guarantees compliance with the level of data protection applicable in the EU.

We use Matomo to analyze the behavior of website visitors to identify potential threats, "Not Found" pages, or search engine indexing issues, or to find out what content is most popular. Once the data is processed (e.g., number of visitors hitting a "Not Found" page, those viewing only a single page, etc.), Matomo generates reports based on which Spirit Link can take action, such as changing the layout of pages, publishing new content ... etc. If you call up individual pages on our website, the following data is processed: IP address, custom dimensions, user location, date and time, title of page viewed, URL of page viewed, URL of page viewed before current page, screen resolution, time in local time zone, country, region, city, main browser language, browser product, and version information (user agent), session record, mouse events (movements, content forms and clicks), and form interactions.
The processing of the above-mentioned personal data serves the purpose of analysing the usage behaviour and habits of our users so that we can further develop the website and increase its attractiveness, in particular the findability of interesting content and user-friendliness. Our legitimate interest in processing the data lies in these purposes.
A storage of personal data does not take place because of the immediate anonymization (see above). Matomo is operated exclusively on our own servers, so no data is transmitted to third parties.
Our website uses plugins of the video portal Vimeo. The provider is Vimeo Inc, 555 West 18th Street, New York, New York 10011, USA.
When you visit one of our pages equipped with a Vimeo plugin, a connection to the Vimeo servers is established. In the process, the Vimeo server is informed which of our pages you have visited. In addition, Vimeo obtains your IP address. This also applies if you are not logged in to Vimeo or do not have an account with Vimeo. The information collected by Vimeo is transmitted to the Vimeo server in the USA.
If you are logged into your Vimeo account, you enable Vimeo to assign your surfing behaviour directly to your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your Vimeo account.
For more information on how Vimeo handles user data, please see Vimeo's privacy policy at: https://vimeo.com/privacy.
We maintain online presences within social networks and platforms in order to be able to communicate with the customers, interested parties and users active there and to inform them about our services there.
We would like to point out that user data may be processed outside the European Union. This may result in risks for the users, because it could, for example, make it more difficult to enforce the rights of the users. With regard to US providers certified under the Privacy Shield, we point out that they thereby undertake to comply with the data protection standards of the EU.
Furthermore, user data is usually processed for market research and advertising purposes. For example, usage profiles can be created from the usage behaviour and resulting interests of the users. The usage profiles can in turn be used, for example, to place advertisements within and outside the platforms that presumably correspond to the interests of the users. For these purposes, cookies are usually stored on the computers of the users, in which the usage behaviour and the interests of the users are stored. Furthermore, data may also be stored in the usage profiles regardless of the devices used by the users (in particular if the users are members of the respective platforms and are logged in to them).
The processing of the personal data of the users is based on our legitimate interests in effective information of the users and communication with the users pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. DSGVO. If the users are asked by the respective providers of the platforms for consent to the aforementioned data processing, the legal basis of the processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a., Art. 7 DSGVO.
For a detailed description of the respective processing and the possibilities of objection (opt-out), we refer to the following linked information of the providers.
Also in the case of requests for information and the assertion of user rights, we point out that these can be asserted most effectively with the providers. Only the providers have access to the data of the users and can directly take appropriate measures and provide information. If you still need help, you can contact us.

CleverReach is a service with which the newsletter dispatch can be organised and analysed. The data you enter for the purpose of receiving newsletters (e.g., email address) is stored on CleverReach's servers in Germany or Ireland.
Our newsletters sent with CleverReach allow us to analyze the behavior of newsletter recipients. Among other things, we can analyze how many recipients have opened the newsletter message and how often which link in the newsletter was clicked.

If you do not want any analysis by CleverReach, you must unsubscribe from the newsletter. For this purpose, we provide a corresponding link in every newsletter message. Furthermore, you can also unsubscribe directly on the website.
The data you provide for the purpose of receiving the newsletter will be stored by us until you unsubscribe from the newsletter and will be deleted from our servers as well as from the servers of CleverReach after you unsubscribe from the newsletter.
