We are very delighted that you have shown interest in our enterprise. Data protection is of a particularly high priority for the management of the synedra information technologies GmbH. The use of the Internet pages of the synedra information technologies GmbH is possible without any indication of personal data; however, if a data subject wants to use special enterprise services via our website, processing of personal data could become necessary. If the processing of personal data is necessary and there is no statutory basis for such processing, we generally obtain consent from the data subject.
The processing of personal data, such as the name, address, e-mail address, or telephone number of a data subject shall always be in line with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and in accordance with the country-specific data protection regulations applicable to the synedra information technologies GmbH. By means of this data protection declaration, our enterprise would like to inform the general public of the nature, scope, and purpose of the personal data we collect, use and process. Furthermore, data subjects are informed, by means of this data protection declaration, of the rights to which they are entitled.
As the controller, the synedra information technologies GmbH has implemented numerous technical and organizational measures to ensure the most complete protection of personal data processed through this website. However, Internet-based data transmissions may in principle have security gaps, so absolute protection may not be guaranteed. For this reason, every data subject is free to transfer personal data to us via alternative means, e.g. by telephone.
1. Definitions
The data protection declaration of the synedra information technologies GmbH is based on the terms used by the European legislator for the adoption of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Our data protection declaration should be legible and understandable for the general public, as well as our customers and business partners. To ensure this, we would like to first explain the terminology used.
In this data protection declaration, we use, inter alia, the following terms:
a) Personal data
Personal data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person ("data subject"). An identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.
b) Data subject
Data subject is any identified or identifiable natural person whose personal data is processed by the controller responsible for the processing.
c) Processing
Processing is any operation or set of operations which is performed on personal data or on sets of personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organisation, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction.
d) Restriction of processing
Restriction of processing is the marking of stored personal data with the aim of limiting their processing in the future.
e) Profiling
Profiling means any form of automated processing of personal data consisting of the use of personal data to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to a natural person, in particular to analyze or predict aspects concerning that natural person's performance at work, economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behavior, location or movements.
f) Pseudonymisation
Pseudonymisation is the processing of personal data in such a manner that the personal data can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without the use of additional information, provided that such additional information is kept separately and is subject to technical and organisational measures to ensure that the personal data are not attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.
g) Controller or controller responsible for the processing
Controller or controller responsible for the processing is the natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data; where the purposes and means of such processing are determined by Union or Member State law, the controller or the specific criteria for its nomination may be provided for by Union or Member State law.
h) Processor
Processor is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which processes personal data on behalf of the controller.
i) Recipient
Recipient is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or another body to which the personal data are disclosed, regardless of whether it is a third party or not. However, public authorities which may receive personal data as part of a particular inquiry in accordance with Union or Member State law shall not be regarded as recipients.
j) Third party
Third party is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or body other than the data subject, controller, processor and persons who, under the direct authority of the controller or processor, are authorised to process personal data.
k) Consent
Consent of the data subject is any freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous indication of the data subject's wishes by which he or she, by a statement or by a clear affirmative action, signifies agreement to the processing of personal data relating to him or her.

4. Cookies
The Internet pages of the synedra information technologies GmbH use cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored in a computer system via an Internet browser.
Many Internet sites and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a so-called cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier of the cookie. It consists of a character string through which Internet pages and servers can be assigned to the specific Internet browser in which the cookie was stored. This allows visited Internet sites and servers to differentiate the individual browser of the data subject from other Internet browsers that contain other cookies. A specific Internet browser can be recognized and identified using the unique cookie ID.
Through the use of cookies, the synedra information technologies GmbH can provide the users of this website with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without the cookie setting.
By means of a cookie, the information and offers on our website can be optimized with the user in mind. Cookies allow us, as previously mentioned, to recognize our website users. The purpose of this recognition is to make it easier for users to utilize our website. If a user visits a website that uses cookies, the user, for example, does not have to enter his or her access data each time he or she visits the website, because this is taken care of by the website and the cookie stored on the user's computer system.
The data subject may, at any time, refuse to accept cookies by activating the setting on his or her browser which allows the data subject to refuse the setting of cookies permanently. Furthermore, already set cookies may be deleted at any time via an Internet browser or other software application. This is possible in all popular Internet browsers. However, if the data subject deactivates the setting of cookies in the Internet browser used, he or she might not be able to use the full functionality of our website.

5. Collection of general data and information
The website of the synedra information technologies GmbH collects a series of general data and information when a data subject or automated system calls up the website. Data and information that are collected include the browser type, the website from which you reached our website (so-called referrers) as well as the date and time of access to the Internet site. We use Webalizer to analyze these data.
Our web server uses the web analyzing tool Webalizer, which anonymizes IP addresses. IP addresses are not displayed in the analyzing tool, so that a personal reference can no longer be established and you as a user remain anonymous to us. The anonymized data sets are stored on our web server and are analyzed for in-house statistical purposes only.
6. Subscription to our newsletters
On the website of the synedra information technologies GmbH, users are given the opportunity to subscribe to our enterprise's newsletter. Which personal data are transmitted to the controller is determined by the respective input mask used for the newsletter registration.
By means of a newsletter, the synedra information technologies GmbH periodically informs its customers and business partners about enterprise offerings. The enterprise's newsletter may only be received by the data subject if (1) the data subject has a valid e-mail address and if (2) the data subject subscribed to the newsletter. For legal reasons, we use a double opt-in process and send a confirmation e-mail to the e-mail address the data subject initially registered when subscribing to the newsletter. This confirmation e-mail is used to verify that the owner of the e-mail address as the data subject has agreed to receive the newsletter.
During the registration for the newsletter, we also store the IP address of the computer system assigned by the Internet service provider (ISP) and used by the data subject at the time of the registration, as well as the date and time of the registration. The collection of this data is necessary in order to understand the (possible) misuse of the e-mail address of a data subject at a later date, and it therefore serves the aim of the legal protection of the controller.
The personal data collected as part of a newsletter registration will only be used to send our newsletter. In addition, subscribers to the newsletter may be informed by e-mail, as long as this is necessary for the operation of the newsletter service or a registration in question, as this could be the case in the event of modifications to the newsletter offer, or in the event of a change in technical circumstances. Personal data collected by the newsletter service will not be passed on to third parties. The data subject may terminate the subscription to our newsletter at any time. The consent to the storage of personal data, which the data subject has given for receiving the newsletter, may be revoked at any time. In order to revoke consent, the data subject may use the corresponding link that can be found in each newsletter. Furthermore, the data subject may unsubscribe from the newsletter by communicating this to the controller.
Use of the e-mail service provider "mailworx"
We use "mailworx" to deliver our newsletters. mailworx is a newsletter tool operated by eworx Network & Internet GmbH, an Austrian company headquartered in Hanriederstraße 25, 4150 Rohrbach-Berg, Austria.
The e-mail addresses of our newsletter subscribers are stored on eworx Network & Internet GmbH servers located in Austria. eworx Network & Internet GmbH uses this information to send and analyze the newsletters on our behalf. According to its own information, eworx Network & Internet GmbH may furthermore use these data to optimize or improve its own services, e.g., to technically optimize the sending and presentation of the newsletters or for economic purposes, i.e., to determine from which countries the recipients are. eworx Network & Internet GmbH, however, does not use the data of our newsletter subscribers to send e-mails on its own behalf nor does eworx Network & Internet GmbH share the data with third parties.
7. Registration to events
On the website of the synedra information technologies GmbH, users are given the opportunity to sign up for special events organized by our enterprise (e.g. release events). The input mask used for this purpose determines what personal data are transmitted to the controller.
The personal data collected as part of a registration to an event will only be used to send the invitation. After the event has taken place, the data will be deleted.
8. Registration form to download View Personal
On the website of the synedra information technologies GmbH, users are given the opportunity to download our View Personal software. The input mask used for this purpose determines what personal data are transmitted to the controller.
The personal data collected as part of a View Personal download will only be used to send the newsletter.
The consent to the storage of personal data, which the data subject has given for downloading View Personal for free, may be revoked at any time. In order to revoke consent, the data subject may use the corresponding link that can be found in each newsletter.
9. Data protection for applications and the application procedures
On the website of the synedra information technologies GmbH, users are given the opportunity to submit application documents to synedra. The input mask used for this purpose determines what personal data are transmitted to the controller.
If the data controller concludes an employment contract with an applicant, the submitted data will be stored for the purpose of processing the employment relationship in compliance with legal requirements. If the controller does not conclude an employment contract with the applicant, the application documents shall be automatically erased two months after notification of the refusal decision, provided that no other legitimate interests of the controller are opposed to the erasure.
10. Contact possibility via the website
The website of the synedra information technologies GmbH contains information that enables a data subject both to quickly contact our enterprise electronically and to directly communicate with us. Said information includes a general address of the so-called electronic mail (e-mail address). If a data subject contacts the controller by e-mail or via a contact form, the personal data transmitted by the data subject are automatically stored. Such personal data that a data subject voluntarily transmitted to the controller are stored for the purpose of processing or contacting the data subject.
11. Routine erasure and blocking of personal data
The data controller shall process and store the personal data of the data subject only for the period necessary to achieve the purpose of storage, or as far as this is granted by the European legislator or other legislators in laws or regulations to which the controller is subject to.
If the storage purpose is not applicable, or if a storage period prescribed by the European legislator or another competent legislator expires, the personal data are routinely blocked or erased in accordance with legal requirements.
12. Rights of the data subject
a) Right of confirmation
Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to obtain from the controller the confirmation as to whether or not personal data concerning him or her are being processed.

The Data Protection Officer of the synedra information technologies GmbH or any other employee shall ensure that the erasure request is complied with immediately.
Where the synedra information technologies GmbH has made personal data public and is obliged pursuant to Article 17(1) to erase the personal data, the synedra information technologies GmbH, taking account of available technology and the cost of implementation, shall take reasonable steps, including technical measures, to inform other controllers processing the personal data that the data subject has requested such controllers to erase any links to, or copies or replications of, those personal data, as far as processing is not required. The Data Protection Officer of the synedra information technologies GmbH or any other employee will arrange the necessary measures in individual cases.
e) Right of restriction of processing
Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to obtain from the controller restriction of processing where one of the following applies:
If one of the aforementioned conditions is met, and a data subject wishes to request the restriction of the processing of personal data stored by the synedra information technologies GmbH, he or she may at any time contact our Data Protection Officer or any other employee of the controller. The Data Protection Officer of the synedra information technologies GmbH or any other employee will arrange the restriction of the processing.
f) Right to data portability
Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to receive the personal data that concerns him or her and that he or she provided to a controller in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. He or she shall have the right to transmit those data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to which the personal data have been provided, as long as the processing is based on consent pursuant to point (a) of Article 6(1) of the GDPR or point (a) of Article 9(2) of the GDPR, or on a contract pursuant to point (b) of Article 6(1) of the GDPR, and the processing is carried out by automated means, as long as the processing is not necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.
Furthermore, in exercising his or her right to data portability pursuant to Article 20(1) of the GDPR, the data subject shall have the right to have personal data transmitted directly from one controller to another, where technically feasible and when doing so does not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others.
In order to assert the right to data portability, the data subject may at any time contact the Data Protection Officer of the synedra information technologies GmbH or any other employee of the controller.
g) Right to object
Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to object, on grounds relating to his or her particular situation, at any time, to processing of personal data concerning him or her, which is based on point (e) or (f) of Article 6(1) of the GDPR. This also applies to profiling based on these provisions.
The synedra information technologies GmbH shall no longer process the personal data in the event of the objection, unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override the interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject, or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
If the synedra information technologies GmbH processes personal data for direct marketing purposes, the data subject shall have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning him or her for such marketing. This applies to profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing. If the data subject objects to the processing for direct marketing purposes, the synedra information technologies GmbH will no longer process the personal data for these purposes.
In addition, the data subject has the right, on grounds relating to his or her particular situation, to object to the processing of personal data concerning him or her by the synedra information technologies GmbH for scientific or historical research purposes, or for statistical purposes pursuant to Article 89(1) of the GDPR, unless the processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out for reasons of public interest.
In order to exercise the right to object, the data subject may contact the Data Protection Officer of the synedra information technologies GmbH or any other employee. In addition, the data subject is free in the context of the use of information society services, and notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, to use his or her right to object by automated means that use technical specifications.
h) Automated individual decision-making, including profiling
Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning him or her, or similarly significantly affects him or her, as long as the decision (1) is not necessary for entering into, or the performance of, a contract between the data subject and a data controller, or (2) is not authorised by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject and which also lays down suitable measures to safeguard the data subject's rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, or (3) is not based on the data subject's explicit consent.
If the decision (1) is necessary for entering into, or the performance of, a contract between the data subject and a data controller, or (2) is based on the data subject's explicit consent, the synedra information technologies GmbH shall implement suitable measures to safeguard the data subject's rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, at least the right to obtain human intervention on the part of the controller, to express his or her point of view and to contest the decision.
If the data subject wishes to exercise the rights concerning automated individual decision-making, he or she may, at any time, contact our Data Protection Officer or any other employee of the controller.

13. Data protection provisions about the application and use of Matomo (formerly Piwik)
On this website, we use "Matomo" (www.matomo.org), a software provided by the operator InnoCraft Ltd., 150 Willis St, 6011 Wellington, New Zealand. The software places a cookie (a text file) on your computer, allowing the visited websites to recognize your browser. If sub-pages of our website are visited, the following data are stored:
The user data collected through the use of Matomo is stored in the EU. With the exception of the service provider (see below), data will not be passed on to third parties. The service provider will not share or merge the data with other user data either.
Service provider: popup communications gmbh, Werdenbergerstr. 39a, 6700 Bludenz, Austria; Website: https://www.popup.at; Privacy Policy: https://www.popup.at/datenschutzerklaerung/
Purpose of data processing:
We process and use the data to analyze how users interact with our website and to collect information about the use of individual components of our website. This enables us to constantly optimize our website and its usability. These purposes are the basis of our legitimate interest according to article 6(1) lit. f GDPR. By anonymizing the IP address, we account for the users' interest in the protection of their personal data. Data will never be used to personally identify the website visitor and will never be merged with other data.
Duration of storage:
The data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer necessary to achieve the purposes for which they were collected. In our case, data will be deleted after 365 days.
14. Data protection provisions about the application and use of YouTube
On this website, the controller has integrated components of YouTube. YouTube is an Internet video portal that enables video publishers to upload video clips free of charge, while enabling other users to view, review and comment on these video clips also free of charge. YouTube allows you to publish all kinds of videos, so you can access full movies and TV broadcasts as well as music videos, trailers, and videos made by users via the Internet portal.
The operating company of YouTube is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, UNITED STATES. The YouTube, LLC is a subsidiary of Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, UNITED STATES.
With each call-up to one of the individual pages of this Internet site, which is operated by the controller and on which a YouTube component (YouTube video) was integrated, the Internet browser on the information technology system of the data subject is automatically prompted to download a display of the corresponding YouTube component. Further information about YouTube may be obtained under https://www.youtube.com/yt/about/en/. During the course of this technical procedure, YouTube and Google gain knowledge of what specific sub-page of our website was visited by the data subject.
If the data subject is logged in on YouTube, YouTube recognizes with each call-up to a sub-page that contains a YouTube video, which specific sub-page of our Internet site was visited by the data subject. This information is collected by YouTube and Google and assigned to the respective YouTube account of the data subject.
Through the YouTube component, YouTube and Google will receive information that the data subject has visited our website if the data subject is logged in on YouTube at the time of the call to our website; this occurs regardless of whether the person clicks on a YouTube video or not. If the data subject does not wish this information to be transmitted to YouTube and Google, he or she may prevent its delivery by logging off from his or her own YouTube account before visiting our website.
YouTube's data protection provisions, available at https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/, provide information about the collection, processing and use of personal data by YouTube and Google.
15. Legal basis for the processing
Art. 6(1) lit. a GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing operations for which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party, as is the case, for example, when processing operations that are necessary for the supply of goods or to provide any other service, the processing is based on Article 6(1) lit. b GDPR. The same applies to such processing operations which are necessary for carrying out pre-contractual measures, for example in the case of inquiries concerning our products or services. If our company is subject to a legal obligation by which processing of personal data is required, such as for the fulfillment of tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6(1) lit. c GDPR. In rare cases, the processing of personal data may be necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor was injured in our company and his name, age, health insurance data or other vital information would have to be passed on to a doctor, hospital or other third party. Then the processing would be based on Art. 6(1) lit. d GDPR. Finally, processing operations could be based on Article 6(1) lit. f GDPR. This legal basis is used for processing operations which are not covered by any of the abovementioned legal grounds if processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by our company or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject which require protection of personal data. Such processing operations are particularly permissible because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator. He considered that a legitimate interest could be assumed if the data subject was a client of the controller (Recital 47 Sentence 2 GDPR).
16. The legitimate interests pursued by the controller or by a third party
Where the processing of personal data is based on Article 6(1) lit. f GDPR, our legitimate interest is to carry out our business in favor of the well-being of all our employees and the shareholders.
17. Period for which the personal data will be stored
The criteria used to determine the period of storage of personal data is the respective statutory retention period. After expiration of that period, the corresponding data is routinely deleted, as long as it is no longer necessary for the fulfillment of the contract or the initiation of a contract.
18. Provision of personal data as statutory or contractual requirement; Requirement necessary to enter into a contract; Obligation of the data subject to provide the personal data; possible consequences of failure to provide such data
We inform you that the provision of personal data is partly required by law (e.g. tax regulations) or can also result from contractual provisions (e.g. information on the contractual partner). In order to conclude a contract, it may be necessary that the data subject provides us with personal data, which must subsequently be processed by us. The data subject is, for example, obliged to provide us with personal data when our company signs a contract with him or her. The non-provision of the personal data would have the consequence that the contract with the data subject could not be concluded. Before the data subject provides personal data, he or she may contact our Data Protection Officer. Our Data Protection Officer informs the data subject about whether the provision of the personal data is required by law or contract or whether it is necessary for the conclusion of the contract, whether there is an obligation to provide the personal data, and the consequences of non-provision of the personal data.
19. Existence of automated decision-making
As a responsible company, we do not use automatic decision-making or profiling.
