If consent has been requested, the processing is based solely on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR and § 25 para. 1 TTDSG, insofar as consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information on the user's device (e.g., device fingerprinting) as per the TTDSG. Consent can be revoked at any time.

    Our hosting provider will only process your data to the extent necessary to fulfill its obligations and follow our instructions regarding this data.

  3. General Information and Mandatory Disclosures

    Data Protection
    The operators of this site take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We handle your personal data confidentially and in accordance with statutory data protection regulations as well as this privacy policy.
    When you use this website, various personal data is collected. Personal data is data that can identify you personally. This privacy policy explains what data we collect and how we use it. It also explains how and for what purpose this happens.
    We would like to point out that data transmission over the Internet (e.g., in communication by email) may have security gaps. Complete protection of the data from access by third parties is not possible.

    Note on the Responsible Party
    The responsible party for data processing on this website is:

    Quantius Capital GmbH
    Quantiusstraße 13, D-53115 Bonn, Germany
    Phone: +49 (0) 163 4430926
    Email: [email protected]

    The responsible party is the natural or legal person who alone or jointly with others decides on the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g., names, email addresses, etc.).

    Storage Duration
    Unless a more specific storage period has been mentioned within this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for data processing ceases. If you assert a legitimate request for deletion or revoke your consent for data processing, your data will be deleted, provided we are not legally required to retain it.

    General Information on the Legal Basis for Data Processing on This Website
    If you have given consent for data processing, we process your personal data based on Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR, provided special categories of data are processed under Art. 9(1) GDPR. In the case of explicit consent for the transfer of personal data to third countries, data processing is also based on Art. 49(1)(a) GDPR. If you have consented to the storage of cookies or access to information on your device (e.g., via device fingerprinting), the data processing is additionally based on § 25(1) TTDSG. Consent can be revoked at any time.
    If your data is necessary for contract performance or for pre-contractual measures, we process your data based on Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. We also process your data if necessary to fulfill a legal obligation based on Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR. Data processing can also be based on our legitimate interest according to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The applicable legal basis for each individual case is detailed in the following sections of this privacy policy.

    Note on Data Transfer to the USA and Other Third Countries
    We use tools from companies based in the USA or other countries that do not offer the same level of data protection as the EU. When these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to these third countries and processed there. We would like to point out that data protection levels in these countries cannot be compared to the EU’s. For example, U.S. companies are required to release personal data to security authorities, and you may not have legal recourse to challenge this. Therefore, U.S. authorities (e.g., intelligence agencies) may process, evaluate, and store your data located on U.S. servers for surveillance purposes. We have no influence on these processing activities.

    Revocation of Your Consent to Data Processing
    Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You can revoke any consent you have given at any time. The legality of the data processing carried out up until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

    Right to Object to Data Collection in Specific Cases and to Direct Marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)
    If data processing is based on Art. 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time, for reasons arising from your particular situation. This also applies to profiling based on these provisions. The respective legal basis for data processing is found in this privacy policy. If you object, we will no longer process your affected personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override your interests, rights, and freedoms, or if the processing serves the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims (objection under Art. 21(1) GDPR).
    If your personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for such advertising, including profiling related to direct marketing. If you object, your personal data will no longer be used for direct marketing purposes (objection under Art. 21(2) GDPR).

    Right to Lodge a Complaint with the Competent Supervisory Authority
    In case of violations of the GDPR, affected individuals have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, particularly in the member state of their habitual residence, workplace, or the location of the alleged violation. This right to lodge a complaint is without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedies.

    Right to Data Portability
    You have the right to receive data that we process based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format. You also have the right to request the transfer of this data to another controller, provided it is technically feasible.

    Access, Deletion, and Correction
    Within the scope of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right to receive information at any time free of charge about your stored personal data, its origin, and its recipients, as well as the purpose of data processing. You also have the right to request the correction or deletion of this data. For this purpose, and for further questions regarding personal data, you can contact us at any time.

    Right to Restriction of Processing
    You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time to exercise this right. The right to restrict processing applies in the following cases:

    • If you contest the accuracy of your personal data stored with us, we usually need time to verify this. During the verification period, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
    • If the processing of your personal data was or is unlawful, you can request the restriction of data processing instead of deletion.
    • If we no longer need your personal data but you need it to exercise, defend, or assert legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing instead of deletion.
    • If you have filed an objection under Art. 21(1) GDPR, a balance must be struck between your interests and ours. As long as it is not clear whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.

    If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, such data may – aside from being stored – only be processed with your consent or for the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a member state.

    SSL or TLS Encryption
    This site uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries you send to us as the site operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the browser’s address line changing from "http://" to "https://" and the lock icon in your browser line.

    When SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

    Encrypted Payment Transactions on This Website
    If, after the conclusion of a fee-based contract, there is an obligation to transmit your payment data (e.g., account number for direct debit authorization), these data will be required for payment processing.
    Payment transactions via common means of payment (Visa/MasterCard, direct debit) are made exclusively via an encrypted SSL or TLS connection. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the browser’s address line changing from "http://" to "https://" and the lock icon in your browser line.
    With encrypted communication, your payment data, which you transmit to us, cannot be read by third parties.

    Objection to Promotional Emails
    We hereby object to the use of contact data published in accordance with the legal notice obligation for sending unsolicited advertising and information materials. The operators of this website expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of unsolicited promotional information, such as spam emails.

     4. Data Collection on This Website

    Cookies
    Our website uses "cookies." Cookies are small data packets that do no harm to your device. They are either temporarily stored for the duration of a session (session cookies) or permanently stored on your device (persistent cookies). Session cookies are automatically deleted after your visit, while persistent cookies remain stored until you delete them or they are automatically removed by your browser.

    In some cases, cookies from third-party companies (third-party cookies) may also be stored on your device when you access our website. These allow us or you to use certain services provided by the third party (e.g., cookies for payment processing services).

    Cookies required to perform electronic communication, provide certain functions you request (e.g., the shopping cart function), or optimize the website (e.g., cookies to measure the web audience) are stored based on Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR, unless another legal basis is specified. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing necessary cookies to ensure a technically error-free and optimized provision of its services. If consent for storing cookies and similar recognition technologies was requested, processing occurs solely based on this consent (Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR and § 25 (1) TTDSG); consent can be revoked at any time.

    You can configure your browser to inform you about the setting of cookies, allow cookies only in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies for specific cases or in general, and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.

    If third-party cookies or cookies for analysis purposes are used, we will inform you separately in this privacy policy and may request your consent.

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

    The processing of this data is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. b GDPR if your inquiry is related to the performance of a contract or is required for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective handling of inquiries addressed to us (Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR) or your consent (Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR), provided that consent was requested; consent can be revoked at any time.

    The data you enter in the contact form will remain with us until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent for its storage, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g., after your inquiry has been processed). Mandatory legal provisions, particularly retention periods, remain unaffected.

    Inquiry via E-Mail, Phone, or Fax
    If you contact us via e-mail, phone, or fax, your inquiry, including all resulting personal data (name, inquiry), will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of handling your request. We do not share this data without your consent.

    The processing of this data is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. b GDPR if your inquiry is related to the performance of a contract or is required for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective handling of inquiries addressed to us (Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR) or your consent (Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR), provided that consent was requested; consent can be revoked at any time.

    The data you send to us via contact inquiries will remain with us until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent for its storage, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g., after your request has been processed).

    6. Analysis Tools and Advertising

    Google Analytics This website uses features of the Google Analytics web analytics service, provided by Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

    Google Analytics allows the website operator to analyze the behavior of website visitors. The operator receives various usage data, such as page views, duration of visits, operating systems used, and the user’s origin. These data are summarized under a user ID and assigned to the device of the respective visitor.

    In addition, Google Analytics can record mouse and scroll movements and clicks. Google Analytics also uses various modeling approaches to complement collected data and employs machine learning technologies for data analysis.

    Google Analytics uses technologies (e.g., cookies or device fingerprinting) that enable the recognition of users for the purpose of analyzing their behavior. The information collected by Google about the use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

    The use of this service is based on your consent under Article 6(1)(a) GDPR and § 25(1) TTDSG. Consent can be revoked at any time.

    The data transfer to the USA is based on the EU Commission’s standard contractual clauses. Details can be found here: https://privacy.google.com/businesses/controllerterms/mccs/.

    Browser Plugin You can prevent the collection and processing of your data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.

    For more information on how Google Analytics handles user data, please refer to Google's privacy policy: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=en.

    Google Signals We use Google Signals. When you visit our website, Google Analytics collects data on your location, search history, YouTube history, and demographic data (visitor data). These data may be used for personalized advertising with the help of Google Signals. If you have a Google account, the visitor data collected by Google Signals will be linked to your Google account and used for personalized advertising messages. The data are also used to generate anonymized statistics on user behavior.

    Google Analytics E-Commerce Tracking This website uses the “E-Commerce Tracking” feature of Google Analytics. E-Commerce tracking enables the website operator to analyze the purchase behavior of visitors to the website in order to optimize online marketing campaigns. Information such as orders placed, average order values, shipping costs, and the time between viewing and purchasing a product is collected. These data can be aggregated by Google under a transaction ID, which is assigned to the respective user or their device.

    Google Ads The website operator uses Google Ads, an online advertising program from Google Ireland Limited. Google Ads allows us to display advertisements in Google search results or on third-party websites when users enter specific search terms (keyword targeting). Additionally, targeted advertisements may be shown based on the data Google has on users (e.g., location data and interests). As the website operator, we can quantitatively evaluate this data by analyzing which search terms triggered the display of our ads and how many clicks the ads received.

    The use of this service is based on your consent under Article 6(1)(a) GDPR and § 25(1) TTDSG. Consent can be revoked at any time.

    The data transfer to the USA is based on the EU Commission’s standard contractual clauses. Details can be found here: https://policies.google.com/privacy/frameworks and https://privacy.google.com/businesses/controllerterms/mccs/.

    Google Ads Remarketing This website uses the features of Google Ads Remarketing, provided by Google Ireland Limited. Google Ads Remarketing allows us to assign users who interact with our online services to specific audiences and display interest-based advertising to them in the Google advertising network (remarketing or retargeting).

    Moreover, the advertising audiences created with Google Ads Remarketing can be linked to Google’s cross-device capabilities. This way, interest-based, personalized advertising messages tailored to your usage and browsing behavior on one device (e.g., a mobile phone) can also be shown on another device (e.g., tablet or PC).

    If you have a Google account, you can opt-out of personalized advertising at the following link: https://www.google.com/settings/ads/onweb/.

    The use of this service is based on your consent under Article 6(1)(a) GDPR and § 25(1) TTDSG. Consent can be revoked at any time.

    For further information and Google’s privacy policy, visit: https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads?hl=en.

    Audience Building with Customer Match To build audiences, we also use Google Ads Remarketing’s customer match feature. In doing so, we transmit certain customer data (e.g., email addresses) from our customer lists to Google. If the respective customers are Google users and logged into their Google account, they will be shown relevant advertising messages within the Google network (e.g., on YouTube, Gmail, or in the search engine).

    Google Conversion Tracking This website uses Google Conversion Tracking, provided by Google Ireland Limited.

    Google Conversion Tracking allows Google and us to see whether the user has performed specific actions. For example, we can evaluate which buttons on our website are clicked and how frequently or which products are viewed or purchased the most. This information is used to create conversion statistics. We learn the total number of users who clicked on our ads and what actions they performed. We do not receive any information that personally identifies the user. Google itself uses cookies or comparable recognition technologies for identification.

    The use of this service is based on your consent under Article 6(1)(a) GDPR and § 25(1) TTDSG. Consent can be revoked at any time.

    For more information about Google Conversion Tracking, refer to Google’s privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en.

    7. Newsletter and Direct Mail Marketing

    Newsletter Data
    If you would like to receive the newsletter offered on this website, we require your email address and information that allows us to verify that you are the owner of the provided email address and agree to receive the newsletter. No further data is collected unless provided voluntarily. We use newsletter service providers as described below for the handling of the newsletter.

    Mailchimp
    This website uses the services of Mailchimp to send newsletters. The provider is Rocket Science Group LLC, 675 Ponce De Leon Ave NE, Suite 5000, Atlanta, GA 30308, USA.

    Mailchimp is a service that organizes and analyzes the distribution of newsletters. When you enter data to subscribe to the newsletter (e.g., your email address), it is stored on Mailchimp's servers in the USA.

    With the help of Mailchimp, we can analyze our newsletter campaigns. When you open an email sent through Mailchimp, a file contained in the email (called a web beacon) connects to Mailchimp's servers in the USA. This allows us to determine if a newsletter message has been opened and which links may have been clicked. Technical information is also collected (e.g., the time of retrieval, IP address, browser type, and operating system). These details cannot be linked to individual newsletter recipients. They are used solely for statistical analysis of newsletter campaigns. The results of these analyses can be used to better adapt future newsletters to the interests of recipients.

    If you do not want your newsletter usage to be analyzed by Mailchimp, you must unsubscribe from the newsletter. We provide a corresponding link for this purpose in every newsletter message.

    The data processing is based on your consent (Art. 6 (1)(a) GDPR). You can revoke your consent at any time by unsubscribing from the newsletter. The legality of the data processing already carried out remains unaffected by the revocation.

    The data you provide for the purpose of receiving the newsletter will be stored until you unsubscribe from the newsletter and will be deleted from the newsletter distribution list after you unsubscribe. Data stored by us for other purposes remain unaffected.

    Data transfers to the USA are based on the EU Commission's standard contractual clauses. You can find details here: https://mailchimp.com/eu-us-data-transfer-statement/ and https://mailchimp.com/legal/data-processing-addendum/#Annex_C_-_Standard_Contractual_Clauses.

    After you unsubscribe from the newsletter distribution list, your email address may be stored by us or the newsletter service provider in a blacklist if necessary to prevent future mailings. The data from the blacklist will only be used for this purpose and will not be combined with other data. This serves both your interest and our interest in complying with legal requirements for sending newsletters (legitimate interest in accordance with Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR). The storage in the blacklist is not time-limited. You may object to the storage if your interests outweigh our legitimate interests.

    Further details can be found in Mailchimp's privacy policy at: https://mailchimp.com/legal/terms/.

    8. Plugins and Tools

    YouTube
    This website integrates videos from the YouTube website. The operator of the website is Google Ireland Limited ("Google"), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

    When you visit one of our web pages containing a YouTube video, a connection to YouTube's servers is established. This informs the YouTube server about which of our pages you have visited.

    YouTube may also store cookies on your device or use similar recognition technologies (e.g., device fingerprinting). In this way, YouTube can collect information about visitors to this website. This information is used, among other things, to collect video statistics, improve user experience, and prevent fraud attempts.

    If you are logged into your YouTube account, YouTube allows you to associate your browsing behavior directly with your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.

    The use of YouTube is in the interest of an appealing presentation of our online offerings. This constitutes a legitimate interest in accordance with Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR. If consent has been requested, the processing is based exclusively on Art. 6 (1)(a) GDPR and §25 (1) TTDSG, to the extent that consent covers the storage of cookies or access to information on the user's device (e.g., device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TTDSG. Consent can be revoked at any time.

    Further information on handling user data can be found in YouTube's privacy policy at: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en.
