This privacy policy informs you about the type, scope and purpose of the collection and use of your personal data by us in connection with your visit to and use of our website www.trusteddecisions.com ("Corporate Website").

Personal data

Personal data is information about data subjects (natural persons) whose identity is determined or at least determinable (e.g. name, email address or IP address).

We would like to point out that data transmission over the Internet (e.g. when communicating by e-mail) can have security gaps. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.

Legal basis, storage periods

Data processing is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit a (consent) and/or lit f (legitimate interest) of the GDPR.

The processed personal data is used for statistical evaluations and for the purpose of the operation, security and optimization of the website (legitimate interest). Any further use of your personal data (e.g. sending newsletters) will only take place with your consent.

If no explicit storage period is specified at the time of collection (e.g. as part of a declaration of consent), your personal data will be deleted (or anonymized) if it is no longer required to fulfill the purpose of storage and no statutory retention obligations (e.g. commercial and tax retention obligations) conflict with this.

Transmission and disclosure of personal data

We will not pass on any personal data collected on the basis of your use of the website to third parties without your consent, unless this is necessary to fulfill our obligations or is required by law/authorities.

TD commissions processors (service providers) with the processing of personal data (e.g. as part of an IT support contract). These processors are contractually obliged to comply with data protection regulations.

Your rights, contact details

In principle, you have the right to information, correction, deletion, restriction, data portability and objection. If your data is processed on the basis of your consent, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal. Finally, you have the option of lodging a complaint with the supervisory authority. You can contact us at any time at the address given in the legal notice if you have further questions on the subject of personal data.

Objection to advertising e-mails

We hereby object to the use of contact data published in the context of the imprint obligation to send unsolicited advertising and information material. The operators of this website expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of the unsolicited sending of advertising information, such as spam e-mails.

Data protection officer required by law

We have appointed a data protection officer for our company.

Data collection on our website

Cookies

Our website uses so-called "cookies", which allow the website to recognize your browser on subsequent visits. These are small text files that are stored on your end device with the help of the browser. This allows the website to be optimally adapted to your interests. If you do not agree to the storage of cookies on your computer, you can set up your browser so that it informs you about the setting of cookies and you only allow this in individual cases. You can also deactivate the use of cookies in your browser. However, we would like to point out that in this case you may not be able to use all functions of this website to their full extent.

Server log files

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:

  • Browser type and browser version
  • Operating system used
  • Referrer URL
  • Host name of the accessing computer
  • Time of the server request
  • IP address

This data is not merged with other data sources. The basis for data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, which permits the processing of data for the performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures.

Contact form

If you send us inquiries via the contact form, your details from the inquiry form, including the contact details you provide there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the inquiry and in the event of follow-up questions. We do not pass on this data without your consent.

The data entered in the contact form is therefore processed exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR). You can revoke this consent at any time. All you need to do is send us an informal message by e-mail. The legality of the data processing operations carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

We will retain the data you provide on the contact form until you request its deletion, revoke your consent for its storage, or the purpose for its storage no longer pertains (e.g. after fulfilling your request). Mandatory statutory provisions - in particular retention periods - remain unaffected.

Processing of data (customer and contract data)

We collect, process and use personal data only insofar as it is necessary for the establishment, content or modification of the legal relationship (inventory data). This is done on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR, which permits the processing of data for the performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures. We collect, process and use personal data about the use of our website (usage data) only insofar as this is necessary to enable the user to use the service or to bill the user.

The customer data collected will be deleted after completion of the order or termination of the business relationship. Statutory retention periods remain unaffected.

We only transfer personal data to third parties if this is necessary in the context of contract processing, for example to the credit institution responsible for processing payments.

Further transmission of the data will not take place or will only take place if you have expressly consented to the transmission. Your data will not be passed on to third parties without your express consent, for example for advertising purposes.

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