Data Protection

The protection of personal data is important to us and is also required by law. Your personal data is processed in accordance with applicable data protection regulations. The following overview is intended to inform you about the most important aspects of personal data processing and the measures we take to protect your data:

The party responsible for data processing is:

VIABIRDS Technologies GmbH
Urstein Nord 24, 5412 Puch Urstein
Managing Directors: Alexander Planitzer, Martin Macheiner
Email: office@viabirds.com

Personal data is collected and subsequently processed if you voluntarily provide it to us or consent to the use of specific services. All personal data is collected, processed, and used in accordance with the applicable provisions on the protection of personal data, primarily for the purpose of providing the services you have requested and processing your inquiries.

Our website uses cookies to provide you with an optimal user experience. Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help us make our website more user-friendly, effective, and secure. When you first visit our website, you will be asked which types of cookies you wish to allow. Essential cookies are set regardless of your consent, as they are required for the operation of the website.

Essential cookies: These cookies are necessary to provide the basic functions of our website. Without these cookies, the use of our website would not be possible.

‍Functional cookies: These cookies store your personal settings and preferences, such as language or location.

‍Analytical cookies: We use these cookies to analyze user behavior on our website in order to continuously improve our content and services.

‍Marketing cookies: These cookies allow us to show you relevant advertising and personalized content based on your usage behavior.

You can adjust your cookie settings at any time via the corresponding link in the footer of our website. There, you have the option to change your preferences and accept or reject certain types of cookies.

We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC, to analyze user behavior on our website. Google Analytics uses cookies that enable an analysis of your use of our website. The information generated by the cookies, including your IP address, may be transmitted to and stored on Google servers in the USA. Please note that when data is transmitted to servers in the USA, a level of data protection equivalent to that within the EU cannot be guaranteed. To ensure data security, we use the standard contractual clauses provided by Google. We have entered into a data processing agreement with Google LLC to ensure that data collected by Google Analytics is processed in compliance with data protection regulations. To protect your data, we have activated IP anonymization. This means your IP address is truncated by Google within the European Union (EU) or the European Economic Area (EEA) before being transmitted. Further information on data processing by Google can be found in the Google Privacy Policy.

Google Analytics collects, among other things, the following data:

Website visits
Time spent on individual pages
Interactions with content (e.g., clicks)
Geographic information
Device and browser information

This data is processed to analyze user behavior on our website. These insights help us improve our offerings and better tailor our content to the needs of our users.

The collected data is stored according to the data retention settings in our Google Analytics account. These settings define the maximum duration for which user data is kept. Essential cookies are only stored for the duration of your session.  

You have the option to deactivate the collection of your data by Google Analytics:

‍Browser add-on: Install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on to prevent data collection.
‍Opt-out cookie: You can set an opt-out cookie to deactivate the collection of your data during future visits to our website.

1. Data that you provide/communicate to us. In principle, you do not have to provide us with any personal information directly when using our website. In the context of an inquiry via email, you provide us with your email address and also share the information you would like to make available to us.

2. Data that you provide/communicate through your use of our services. In addition, we receive some data automatically and for technical reasons as soon as you visit our website. Each time a user accesses our website and each time a file is retrieved, access data about this process is stored in the form of log files.

The following data is collected:

- The website from which you access our page;
- The IP address assigned to you by your provider;
- Location information derived from the IP address;
- The date and time of access;
- The name of the file or page accessed;
- If applicable, the operating system and browser software of your computer.

This data is technically necessary for us to display our website to you and to ensure stability and security.

The purpose of data processing is to answer and handle inquiries from interested parties and customers within the scope and for the feasibility of our services, such as:
- Requested recommendations for our products and services (e.g., banks, consultants, investments, loans, real estate brokerage, etc.);
- Applications or tools used on the website or within the scope of our services;
- Sending of updates or information agreed to by the customer.

The legal bases for the processing of your personal data are, in particular:

- Your consent (Art 6(1)(a) GDPR);
- Performance of a contract (Art 6(1)(b) GDPR);
- Compliance with legal obligations (Art 6(1)(c) GDPR);
- Protection of our legitimate interests (Art 6(1)(f) GDPR) (ensuring the stability and security of the website, defense of legal claims).

If you have given us consent to process your personal data, processing will only take place in accordance with the purposes defined in the declaration of consent and to the extent agreed therein. Consent given can be withdrawn at any time with effect for the future. You must provide the personal data that is necessary for the initiation and execution of our business relationship and that we require for the processing of the respective service.

If you do not provide us with data, we generally have to refuse the conclusion of a contract or the execution of certain services. However, you are not obliged to give consent to the processing of data that is not relevant or necessary for the performance of the contract or the specific service. The data will be stored for the duration of the contractual relationship and, after its termination, at least as long as statutory retention periods exist or limitation periods for potential legal claims have not yet expired. We store and process the personal data transmitted or disclosed to us only to the extent that it is related to the processing of the services and tools offered on our website.

Data is only passed on to the extent necessary and as required for contract fulfillment, based on a legal basis, or if there is a legitimate interest of the parties involved in the business transaction (third parties). Potential recipients may include:

- Departments of the company involved in business operations (e.g., IT, other administrative units) or companies within the corporate group (e.g., for the execution of joint projects);
- Third parties directly involved in the business transaction (persons necessarily participating in the business transaction and potential contractual partners such as banks, consultants, financial providers, IT system providers);
- Service providers of the controller who act as contractors in the context of maintaining the IT infrastructure (software, hardware).

Furthermore, processors commissioned by us will receive your data if they require it to fulfill their respective tasks. All processors are contractually obligated to treat your data confidentially and to process it only within the scope of providing the service. Our processors have committed themselves to us to comply with applicable data protection regulations. Data processing agreements in accordance with Art 28 GDPR have been concluded. You can request further information about the processors we have commissioned at office@viabirds.com. Under no circumstances will your data be passed on for advertising purposes or similar. Our employees and our service companies are obligated to maintain confidentiality and to comply with data protection regulations.

Your data security is our highest priority. We are therefore committed to taking all necessary technical and organizational security measures to ensure the security of data processing and to process your personal data in such a way that it is protected against accidental or intentional manipulation, loss, destruction, or access by unauthorized third parties.

Our security measures are continuously improved in line with technological progress. Personal data collected on our website is transmitted to our security server in encrypted form so that it cannot be read by anyone. We encrypt all data using 256-bit SSL encryption and transmit it in secure "https" mode. This standard meets the highest requirements and is also used by banks, for example. The use of SSL is recommended by various public institutions entrusted with data security. For security, we recommend that every user use the latest browser versions, virus scanners, and software programs. You can recognize that encryption is active by the locked padlock symbol in the status bar of your browser.

We protect our servers and thus the data of our users with state-of-the-art security programs and firewalls that prevent unauthorized access attempts from the outset. A transfer to recipients in a third country (outside the EU) or to an international organization is intended. The level of data protection in other countries may not correspond to that of your country. However, we only transfer your personal data to countries for which the EU Commission has decided that they have an adequate level of data protection, or we implement measures to ensure that all recipients have an adequate level of data protection. There is no automated decision-making (profiling).

Since external links may be subsequently changed or updated, VIABIRDS Technologies GmbH disclaims any responsibility for the content of third-party sites. The provider of the linked page is solely liable for illegal, incorrect, or incomplete content, and in particular for damages resulting from the use or non-use of such information, not the party who merely refers to the respective page via links. We aim to process as little personal data as possible when you use our website. Therefore, we have chosen Fathom Analytics for our website analytics, which does not use cookies and is compliant with GDPR, ePrivacy (including PECR), COPPA, and CCPA. With this privacy-friendly website analytics software, your IP address is processed only briefly, and we (as the operator of this website) have no way to identify you. Under the CCPA, your personal data is de-identified. You can read more about this on the Fathom Analytics website.

If your consent is required for the processing of your data, we will only process it after receiving your explicit approval. In principle, we do not process data of minors and are not authorized to do so. By providing your consent, you confirm that you are at least 14 years old or that you have the consent of your legal guardian. You may withdraw your consent at any time by emailing office@viabirds.com. In the event of a withdrawal of consent, the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal remains unaffected.

This privacy policy is reviewed regularly and updated as necessary to comply with new legal requirements or changes to our services. We therefore recommend that you read our privacy policy periodically to stay informed about any potential adjustments.

As a data subject, you generally have the right to access, rectification, erasure, restriction, data portability, withdrawal, and objection. To exercise your rights, please send an informal email to office@viabirds.com. If you believe that the processing of your data violates data protection law or that your data protection rights have been infringed in any other way, you may lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority. In Austria, this is the Data Protection Authority (Barichgasse 40-42, 1030 Vienna; email: dsb@dsb.gv.at).

You retain control over all personal data you provide to us. Upon request, we will be happy to inform you in writing whether and which of your personal data we have stored. You may also request the deletion of your data stored with us, provided it is not required for the fulfillment of contractual relationships between you and us, or if we are legally obligated to retain it, or if we require the data to defend against potential liability claims.

If you have any questions regarding your rights or the collection, processing, or use of personal data by the website operator, please contact us at:
