This data is recorded on the basis of Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR.

For our website we use the web hosting provider Webflow, Inc., 398 11th St., Floor 2, San Francisco, CA 94103. Webflow uses the AWS cloud with data centers within Europe for data storage.

7.3. Google Analytics / Google Tag Manager / Linkedin Connection
We use Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. Google Analytics will use cookies to generate information on your use of our website, and this information will be transferred to a Google server in Europe or the USA and stored there. As IP anonymisation is activated on all our webpages, however, Google will truncate your IP address before transferring data within member states of the EU or the EEA. Your full IP address will only be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and truncated there in exceptional cases. Google will use this information on behalf of us to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports on website activities and provide us with other services related to the use of this website and the Internet. The IP address transmitted by your browser via Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data. More information on the handling of user data at Google can be found here. We will only use Google Analytics if you give us your consent via the consent management in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR. You can revoke your consent at any time. You can adjust your browser settings to generally prevent cookies from being saved in your browser. You can also stop the data generated by cookies on your use of this website (incl. your IP address) from being transferred to Google for processing by downloading and installing the following browser plug-in: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
For the purpose of tracking downloads and video starts, we also use Google Tag Manager on our website. Google Tag Manager is a solution that allows marketers to manage website tags through one interface. The Tag Manager tool itself (which implements the tags) is a cookie-free domain and does not collect any personal information. The tool triggers other tags, which in turn may collect data. Google Tag Manager does not access this data. If disabled at the domain or cookie level, it will remain disabled for all tracking tags implemented with Google Tag Manager. For more information on terms of use and privacy, please visit https://support.google.com/tagmanager/answer/9323295 For B2B purposes only, a google account is connected with the corresponding Linkedin account.
7.4. google fonts
On our website we use Google Fonts, from the company Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA). We integrated Google Fonts locally, so on our own webserver and not on Google’s servers. Hence, there is no connection to Google’s servers and consequently no data transfer or retention. Google Fonts was previously called Google Web Fonts. It is an interactive list with over 800 fonts which Google LLC offer for free use. With the use of Google Fonts, it is possible to utilise fonts without uploading them to your own server. For that matter, in order to prevent any transfer of information to Google’s servers, we downloaded the fonts to our own server. This way we comply with the data privacy and do not transmit any data to Google Fonts. Unlike other web fonts, Google offers us unrestricted access to all its fonts. Thus, we have a vast sea of font types at our disposal, which helps us to get the most out of our website. You can find out more answers and information on Google Fonts at https://developers.google.com/fonts/faq?tid=111621967.
7.5. google cloud cdn
We use the content delivery network Google Cloud CDN. The provider is Google Ireland Limited ("Google"), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. Google offers a globally distributed content delivery network. This technically routes the transfer of information between your browser and our website via Google's network. This allows us to increase the worldwide accessibility and performance of our website. The use of Google Cloud CDN is based on our legitimate interest in providing our website as error-free and secure as possible (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR). The data transfer to the USA is based on the standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission. Details can be found here. You can find more information about Google Cloud CDN here: https://cloud.google.com/cdn/docs/overview.
8. Online presence in social networks
We operate our own social media pages together with the provider of the respective social media platform. The provider of the respective social media platform is solely responsible for the processing of personal data on the social media platform itself on which we operate our social media pages. Further information can be found in their privacy policies. The social media platforms provide us with anonymous usage statistics (so-called page insights data) of our social media pages based on the actions and interactions of our followers. We have no influence or access to the creation and processing of these usage statistics and the underlying data; it is carried out under the sole responsibility of the provider of the respective social media platform and without us being able to view personal data of individual followers or users. We use these anonymous usage statistics to display targeted interest-based advertisements on the social media platforms we use or to highlight our posts. The display of interest-based advertisements or the highlighting of posts on the social media platforms we use is carried out on the basis of an analysis of the user's prior usage behaviour by the respective social media platform without us being able to view personal data of individual users or merge it with any personal data we may process or obtain knowledge of the identity of the users to whom interest-based advertisements are displayed. This data processing is based on our legitimate interests. If, in the context of interest-based advertising, we exceptionally carry out a so-called extended comparison with customer lists to be uploaded by us to the respective social media platform, this would only be done on the basis of consent granted by you for this purpose.
When you visit a Revalu social media site, we process your actions and interactions with our social media site (e.g. the content of your messages, enquiries, posts or comments that you send to us or leave on our social media sites or when you like or share our posts) as well as your publicly viewable profile data/ business profile data (e.g. your name and profile picture). Which personal data from your profile is publicly viewable depends on your profile settings, which you can adjust yourself in your settings on the social media platform in each case. Please generally take care not to transmit or share sensitive data or confidential information (e.g. application documents, bank or payment data) via social media platforms; we recommend that you use a more secure means of transmission (e.g. letter post, e-mail). We operate our social media sites and process the aforementioned data for the purpose of providing information about us and communicating with our followers and interested parties. This data processing is carried out on the basis of our legitimate interests and, where applicable, in order to respond to your messages, enquiries, contributions or comments that you send to us (Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR). We check whether comments or other interactions on our social media pages violate applicable law or the respective community guidelines and delete such comments if necessary. In the event that such comments occur frequently, we may process the user names involved for internal coordination purposes. We base this processing on our legitimate interest in providing a reputable online presence and meeting legal requirements.
We will process your personal data for as long as is necessary for the aforementioned purposes. In the event of an objection to processing based on our legitimate interests, we will delete personal data unless its further processing is permitted under the relevant legal provisions. We also delete personal data if we are obliged to do so for other legal reasons. Applying these general principles, we generally delete personal data immediately after the legal basis ceases to exist, if it is no longer required for the stated purposes or if the stated purposes cease to exist and if there is no other legal basis (e.g. retention periods under commercial and tax law), otherwise after the other legal basis ceases to exist.
Any data and documents that you provide as part of your application will be processed according to our privacy policy for applicants which can be found here.
