Privacy Information
General Information and Mandatory Information
Data Protection
The operators of this website take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the applicable statutory data protection regulations and this Privacy Policy.
When you use this website, various types of personal data are collected. Personal data is data that can be used to identify you personally. This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this is done.
Please note that data transmission over the Internet (e.g. communication by email) may be subject to security vulnerabilities. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.
Information on the Controller
The controller responsible for data processing on this website is:
Sturm AI GmbH
Hermann-Reichelt-Straße 3a
Phone: +49 351 79583320
The controller is the natural or legal person who, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g. names, email addresses or similar data).
Withdrawal of Your Consent to Data Processing
Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You may withdraw consent that you have already given at any time. An informal notification by email is sufficient for this purpose. The lawfulness of data processing carried out prior to the withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal.
Access, Restriction and Erasure
Within the framework of the applicable statutory provisions, you have the right at any time to obtain information free of charge about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of the data processing. Where applicable, you also have the right to rectification, restriction of processing or erasure of this data. For this purpose, as well as for any further questions regarding personal data, you may contact us at any time at the address provided in the Legal Notice.
Right to Data Portability
You have the right to receive data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in performance of a contract in a commonly used, machine-readable format, or to have it transmitted to a third party. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be carried out where technically feasible.
SSL Encryption
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the website operator, this website uses SSL encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the browser’s address bar changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock symbol displayed in your browser.
When SSL encryption is enabled, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.
Data Collection on Our Website
Server Logs
The website provider automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. This information includes:
- Browser type and browser version
- Operating system used
- Referrer URL
- Hostname of the accessing computer
- Time of the server request
- IP address (anonymized immediately)
This data is not combined with data from other sources.
The legal basis for data processing is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, which permits the processing of data for the performance of a contract or in order to take steps prior to entering into a contract.
HOSTING
Strato
We host our website with Strato. The provider is Strato AG, Pascalstraße 10, 10587 Berlin, Germany (hereinafter referred to as “Strato”). When you visit our website, Strato collects various log files, including your IP address.
Further information can be found in Strato’s Privacy Policy:
Strato Privacy Policy
The use of Strato is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. We have a legitimate interest in ensuring that our website is displayed as reliably as possible. Where consent has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TTDSG, insofar as the consent covers the storage of cookies or access to information on the user’s terminal device (e.g. device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TTDSG. Consent may be withdrawn at any time.
Data Processing Agreement
We have concluded a data processing agreement (DPA) with the provider named above. This is a contract required under data protection law that ensures that the provider processes the personal data of our website visitors only in accordance with our instructions and in compliance with the GDPR.
Cookies
We use cookies on our website. These are small text files that are automatically created by your browser and stored by the browser on your terminal device (e.g. laptop, tablet or smartphone) when you visit our website. Cookies do not cause any damage to your device and do not contain viruses, Trojans or other malware. Cookies store information relating to the specific device used. However, this does not mean that we obtain direct knowledge of your identity as a result.
Cookies are used to make our website more user-friendly, effective and secure. This also constitutes our legitimate interest in processing personal data pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Most of the cookies we use on this website are so-called session cookies, which are automatically deleted when you leave the website. The following data may be transmitted in this way: search terms entered, frequency of page views and use of website functions.
The data collected in this way is pseudonymized by technical means. It is therefore no longer possible to associate the data with you. The data is not stored together with other personal data relating to users. When you access our website, an information banner informs you about the use of cookies for analytical purposes and refers you to this Privacy Policy.
You can determine whether cookies are set and accessed through your browser settings. For example, you can completely disable the storage of cookies in your browser, restrict their use to certain websites, or configure your browser to notify you automatically whenever a cookie is about to be set and ask you to confirm it. However, for technical reasons, the session cookies referred to above must be permitted in order to use the full functionality of our website.
In addition, we use temporary cookies to optimize user-friendliness. These cookies are stored on your device for a specified period of time. If you visit our website again to use our services, it is automatically recognized that you have previously visited our website and which entries and settings you made, so that you do not have to enter them again.
We also use cookies to statistically record the use of our website and to evaluate this data for the purpose of optimizing our services for you. These cookies enable us to automatically recognize that you have previously visited our website when you return. These cookies are automatically deleted after a defined period of time. The data processed by cookies is necessary for the purposes stated above to safeguard our legitimate interests and those of third parties pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.
Most browsers accept cookies automatically. However, you can configure your browser so that no cookies are stored on your computer or so that a notification always appears before a new cookie is created. Completely disabling cookies may, however, mean that you are unable to use all functions of our website.
The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required for the purpose for which it was collected. In the case of data collected for the provision of the website, this occurs when the respective session has ended. IP addresses are generally deleted no later than seven days after they have been collected. Storage beyond this period is possible. In this case, users’ IP addresses are deleted or altered in such a way that it is no longer possible to associate them with the accessing client.
The collection of data for the provision of the website and the storage of data in log files are strictly necessary for the operation of the website. Consequently, you have no right to object to this processing.
Contact Form
If you send us inquiries via the contact form, the information you provide in the inquiry form, including the contact details entered there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing your inquiry and in the event of follow-up questions. We will not disclose this data without your consent.
The data entered into the contact form is therefore processed exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You may withdraw this consent at any time. An informal notification by email is sufficient for this purpose. The lawfulness of data processing carried out prior to the withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal.
The data you enter into the contact form will remain with us until you request its deletion, withdraw your consent to its storage, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. once your inquiry has been fully processed). Mandatory statutory provisions, in particular statutory retention periods, remain unaffected.
Hinweis: Auch hier habe ich die bestehende deutsche Fassung in juristisch übliche englische GDPR-Begriffe übertragen, ohne den Inhalt eigenständig zu verändern. Allerdings fällt hier ein wichtiger Aktualisierungspunkt auf: Der Text nennt noch § 25 TTDSG. Das TTDSG wurde zum 14. Mai 2024 in TDDDG (Telekommunikation-Digitale-Dienste-Datenschutz-Gesetz) umbenannt. Wenn die Datenschutzerklärung 2026 veröffentlicht wird, sollte die deutsche Ausgangsfassung daher rechtlich/inhaltlich aktualisiert werden; anschließend sollte die englische Fassung entsprechend angepasst werden.
