Data is only transferred once you have clicked on the link.<\/p>\n\n\n\n These channels are used for the following purposes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Legal basis<\/p>\n\n\n\n The legal basis for this processing of your personal data is our legitimate interest in communicating with our interested parties and customers as well as analysing and further developing services and products and improving business processes (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR).

The content of these videos is stored directly on the platforms and embedded on our site. If you call up such a video, the IP address, technical information such as browser, operating system and basic device information as well as the website you have visited will be communicated. We have also embedded the YouTube videos in privacy-friendly \"extended data protection mode\".<\/p>\n\n\n\n Personal data is only transferred when you access a video. Only then is a server connection to YouTube and Vimeo established and a corresponding cookie set, which is used to save your settings. When you call up the videos, you leave our area and enter the external platforms of YouTube and Vimeo, which are beyond our sphere of influence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You will be informed again before you access a video. If you have an account with the provider of the video service, they may be able to identify you. You can avoid this by logging out of your account before playing a video.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Legal basis<\/p>\n\n\n\n The legal basis for the activation of these videos is your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR, which is related to your consent to the use of cookies (cookie page).<\/p>\n\n\n\n Provider of the YouTube platform 2.4 Friendly Captcha<\/p>\n\n\n\n Purpose and legal basis<\/p>\n\n\n\n We use the Friendly Captcha service. This involves integrating a JavaScript element into the source code, which loads the software in the background. Your end device calculates the solution to a crypto puzzle for the service, which is used to determine whether the visitor is a human or whether the use is abusive through automated, machine processing (e.g. bots). Legal basis<\/p>\n\n\n\n The legal basis for this processing is therefore our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR and serves to prevent potentially fraudulent activities on our website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Type of data<\/p>\n\n\n\n Provider of the service<\/p>\n\n\n\n Friendly Captcha GmbH, W\u00f6rthsee, Germany Friendly Captcha uses the following provider for the hosting and delivery of the service (CDN = Content Delivery Network): If EPAR-SERVICE GmbH transfers data to third countries, suitable guarantees for data transfer are agreed with any processors or controllers in accordance with the requirements of Chapter V of the GDPR or adequacy decisions of the EU Commission are used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Purpose and legal basis<\/p>\n\n\n\n We use the reCAPTCHA service from Google. With reCaptcha, a JavaScript element is integrated into the source code, whereby the software is loaded in the background and your user behaviour is analysed. The data is already used and analysed before you have clicked on the \"I am not a robot\" checkbox. Google uses the data to calculate a score, which is used to determine whether the visitor is a human or whether the entries are being misused by automated, machine processing (e.g. bots). It also serves to prevent fraudulent mass orders, which can lead to risks in the company's infrastructure. ReCAPTCHA also protects our customers from becoming potential victims of cybercrime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Legal basis<\/p>\n\n\n\n The legal basis for this processing is therefore our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR and serves to prevent potentially fraudulent activities on our website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Type of data<\/p>\n\n\n\n The IP address transmitted to Google is truncated and not merged with other Google data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Provider of the ReCAPTCHA service To have data deleted directly from Google, please contact Google support at If you want as little data as possible to be transmitted to Google about you and your behaviour, you must log out of Google and delete any Google cookies before visiting our website or using the reCAPTCHA software.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If EPAR-SERVICE GmbH transfers data to third countries, suitable guarantees for data transfer are agreed with any processors or controllers in accordance with the requirements of Chapter V of the GDPR or adequacy decisions of the EU Commission are used. 2.5 HubSpot<\/p>\n\n\n\n We use the HubSpot service for our online marketing activities. This is an integrated software solution that we use to cover various aspects of our online marketing. The following data and the content of our website are stored on HubSpot's servers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n a) E-mail marketing: In this context, Hubspot makes it possible to track your interactions with emails. This includes, for example, the so-called link evaluation with regard to your click behaviour within an email. Hubspot records whether and when a link was clicked and can assign this information to the respective email recipient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The legal basis for this is your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can revoke your consent to receive newsletters, mailings or downloads at any time via a link at the end of each e-mail or by sending a message to info@epar-service.com <\/a> revoked. If you withdraw your consent, your contact details will be deleted immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you have registered for our registration service (see \"Email marketing\"), we can also use HubSpot to link a user's visits to our website with their personal details (name, email address) so that you receive personalised and targeted information on preferred topics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The legal basis for the processing is your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR via the cookie banner. You can find more information about cookies at: https:\/\/epar-service.com\/cookies<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you generally do not want HubSpot to collect data, you can prevent the storage of cookies at any time by changing your browser settings accordingly.

The EPAR-SERVICE blog contains a comment function that you can use to comment on posts. Our comment function stores the IP addresses of users who post comments. In order to use the comment function, you must enter your e-mail address, as we do not check comments on the blog before they are activated and can therefore take action against the author in the event of legal violations such as insults, threats or untrue statements of fact. We reserve the right to delete comments with such content. All other details such as URL or customer number are optional. <\/p>\n\n\n\n If you enter your surname and\/or first name when publishing your comment, these will be published.

You will receive a confirmation email to check whether you are the owner of the email address provided. You can unsubscribe from this function at any time via a link: blog@EPAR-service.com. In this case, the data entered when subscribing to comments will be deleted. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Legal basis<\/p>\n\n\n\n You use the comment function on a voluntary basis, therefore the legal basis is your implied consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR, as well as our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR for the corresponding storage of your data for the aforementioned purpose, as well as for the review of unlawful comments and, if necessary, their prosecution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Duration of storage\/ cancellation and removal<\/p>\n\n\n\n The comments and the associated data (e.g. IP address) are stored and remain on our blog until the content commented on has been completely deleted or the comments have to be deleted for legal reasons (e.g. offensive comments). In the case of offensive comments or other illegal behaviour on the blog, we reserve the right to retain the data for criminal prosecution for a longer period of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You have the option to revoke your consent to the storage of your data at any time via info@EPAR-service.com. All personal data stored in the course of the comment function will be deleted immediately upon cancellation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n 2.7 Book a Demo<\/p>\n\n\n\n We offer free product consultations and presentations to provide customers or interested parties with the best possible support in selecting the right product. You have the option of registering voluntarily for a product consultation\/presentation. We process your registration data in order to carry out the product consultation\/presentation. You will then receive an invitation by e-mail via Google Calendar. Your data will be transmitted to Google and used by Google for its own purposes. Further information on data processing by Google can be found here: Privacy Policy <\/p>\n\n\n\n Legal basis<\/p>\n\n\n\n The legal basis for participation in the product presentation is your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR <\/p>\n\n\n\n Storage duration<\/p>\n\n\n\n Your registration data will be deleted after the end of the event at the latest, unless further counselling is requested.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Data recipient<\/p>\n\n\n\n Google Ireland Ltd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Gordon House, Barrow Street<\/p>\n\n\n\n Dublin 4<\/p>\n\n\n\n Ireland<\/p>\n\n\n\n 2.8 Use of inventory data with marketing partners<\/p>\n\n\n\n We use services such as Meta Custom Audiences, LinkedIn Matched Audiences, TikTok Custom Audiences, Reddit Custom Audiences and Google Customer Match to deliver targeted advertising in the form of adverts on our marketing partners' portals. We transmit inventory data (email address, telephone number, postcode, country) to our marketing partners. However, the data is not sent in plain text, but hashed in advance using the SHA 256 algorithm and then transmitted. The marketing partner then compares the data with its own, identical data in order to display targeted, personalised advertising in the form of advertisements on the portals of the respective marketing partner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Further information on data processing at Meta can be found at:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
