Cookies
We do not use cookies on our website. Cookies are small files that are automatically created by your browser and stored on your terminal device (laptop, tablet, smartphone, etc.) when you visit our site. A cookie does not mean that we can identify you in every case.

We use advertising technologies from Google Ads on our website. This allows us to target people who visit our website with advertising that is relevant to you when they visit other websites. The advertising materials are displayed on the websites you visit based on an analysis of your previous use of our website. For this purpose, the providers of the advertising technologies set cookies when you visit our website.

Analysis tools
Google Analytics
The controller has integrated the Google Analytics component on this website. Google Analytics uses cookies and usually stores them outside the EU/EFTA area. Google uses this information to evaluate the use of the website and to compile reports on website activity and internet usage. Furthermore, according to its own information, Google transfers this information to third parties insofar as this is required by law or insofar as third parties process this data on behalf of Google. The IP address transmitted by the browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data. Users can prevent the storage of cookies (see "4. Use of cookies"). Users can also prevent the transmission of the data generated by the cookie and related to their use of the website (incl. IP address) to Google and the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de

Social media linking
We currently link to the following social media providers: Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn and YouTube by means of corresponding social media buttons. To prevent an unwanted transfer of your usage data (e.g. address of the currently visited page) to these services, you can only access the services by clicking on the link. On the service page, these social networks may collect usage data and possibly user data. We have no influence on the data collected and data processing procedures, nor are we aware of the full extent of the data collection, the purposes of the processing or the storage periods. We also have no information on the deletion of the collected data by the plug-in provider.

Therefore, we inform you according to our state of knowledge:
Only when you call up the links does your browser establish a direct connection with the servers of the aforementioned services. In this way, the information that you have visited our website indirectly (referrer) is forwarded to these services. If you are already logged in to the service with your personal user account while visiting our website, you can usually "share" the document (so-called "sharing") or leave a comment etc. after clicking on the social media buttons. If you do not wish such data transmission, we advise you not to click on the social media buttons.

The purpose and scope of the data collection by the social services, as well as the further processing and use of your data there, as well as your rights in this regard and setting options for protecting your privacy, can be found in the data protection notices of these services.

Cross-border disclosure in third countries outside the EU/EEAInsofar as one of the above-mentioned data transfers takes place to a recipient outside the EEA (to so-called "third countries"), an appropriate level of data protection for the foreign transfer is ensured by means of suitable security measures. Currently, however, no data is transferred to third countries outside the EU/EEA.

If you have any questions on this topic or would like more information on further security mechanisms and security measures for data transfer to third countries, please feel free to contact our data protection officer.

Adobe Fonts and Adobe Stock
We use Adobe Fonts and in some cases image material from Adobe Stock for the visual design of our website. Adobe Fonts is a service of Adobe Systems Incorporated, 345 Park Avenue, San Jose, CA 95110-2704, USA (Adobe), which grants us access to a font library. To integrate the fonts we use, your browser must establish a connection to an Adobe server in the USA and download the font required for our website. Adobe then receives the information that our website has been accessed from your IP address.

YouTube
Functions of the "YouTube" service are integrated on this website. "YouTube" is owned by Google Ireland Limited, a company incorporated and operated under the laws of Ireland, with its registered office at Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, which operates the services in the European Economic Area and Switzerland.

These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and "YouTube" regarding your use of the Services. Google's Privacy Policy explains how "YouTube" treats and protects your personal information when you use the Service.

Facebook
Our website uses so-called social plugins ("plugins") of the social network Facebook, which is operated by Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA ("Facebook"). The plugins are marked with a Facebook logo or the addition "Social Plug-in from Facebook" or "Facebook Social Plugin". An overview of the Facebook plug-ins and their appearance can be found here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins. When you call up a page of our website that contains such a plugin, your browser establishes a direct connection to Facebook's servers. The content of the plugin is transmitted by Facebook directly to your browser and integrated into the page. Through this integration, Facebook receives the information that your browser has accessed the corresponding page of our website, even if you do not have a Facebook profile or are not currently logged in to Facebook. This information (including your IP address) is transmitted by your browser directly to a Facebook server in the USA and stored there. If you are logged in to Facebook, Facebook can directly assign your visit to our website to your Facebook profile. If you interact with the plugins, for example by clicking the "Like" button or posting a comment, this information is also transmitted directly to a Facebook server and stored there. The information is also published on your Facebook profile and displayed to your Facebook friends. The purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data by Facebook, as well as your rights in this regard and setting options for protecting your privacy, can be found in Facebook's privacy policy: http://www.facebook.com/policy.php. If you do not want Facebook to directly assign the data collected via our website to your Facebook profile, you must log out of Facebook before visiting our website. You can also completely prevent the loading of Facebook plugins with add-ons for your browser, e.g.
for Mozilla Firefox: https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/facebook-blocker/
for Opera: https://addons.opera.com/de/extensions/details/facebook-blocker/?display=en
for Chrome: https: //chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/block-facebook/gebclbfnlcebcljmgblacllmjkfidoef

Instagram
Functions of the Instagram service are integrated on this website. These functions are offered by Instagram Inc., 1601 Willow Road, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA. Instagram has been a subsidiary of Facebook Inc. since 2012 and is one of the Facebook products. Embedding Instagram content on our website is called embedding. This allows us to show you content such as buttons, photos or videos from Instagram directly on our website.

When you call up web pages on our website that have an Instagram function integrated, data is transmitted to Instagram, stored and processed. Instagram uses the same systems and technologies as Facebook. Your data can therefore also be processed across other Facebook companies. If you are logged into your Instagram account, you can link the content of our pages to your Instagram profile by clicking on the Instagram button. This allows Instagram to associate the visit to our pages with your user account. We would like to point out that we, as the provider of the pages, have no knowledge of the content of the transmitted data or its use by Instagram.

For more information, please see the privacy policy of Instagram: https://instagram.com/about/legal/privacy/

LinkedIn
On our website we use the plug-in of the social network LinkedIn. LinkedIn is an internet service of LinkedIn Corporation, 2029 Stierlin Court Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, hereinafter referred to as "LinkedIn". For data protection issues outside the USA, LinkedIn Ireland, Privacy Policy Issues, Wilton Plaza, Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Ireland, is responsible. If the plug-in is stored on one of the pages of our website that you visit, your internet browser downloads a representation of the plug-in from the servers of LinkedIn in the USA. For technical reasons, it is necessary for LinkedIn to process your IP address. In addition, the date and time of your visit to our website are also recorded. If you are logged in to LinkedIn while you visit one of our websites with the plug-in, the information collected by the plug-in from your specific visit will be recognized by LinkedIn. LinkedIn may assign the information collected in this way to your personal user account there. If you use, for example, the so-called "Share" button of LinkedIn, this information will be stored in your LinkedIn user account and possibly published via the LinkedIn platform. If you wish to prevent this, you must either log out of LinkedIn before visiting our website or make the appropriate settings in your LinkedIn user account. LinkedIn provides further information about the collection and use of data as well as your rights and protection options in this regard in the privacy notices available at https://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy. LinkedIn is certified under the Privacy Shield agreement and thereby offers a guarantee of compliance with European data protection law(https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt0000000L0UZAA0&status=Active).

Findmind
We use the Findmind tool for quality and satisfaction surveys of our training visitors at SMART PLACE. We have concluded a contract with Findmind for commissioned data processing, which regulates the responsibilities and obligations in accordance with the GDPR. The contract also contains the technical and organizational measures. Findmind, in turn, has also concluded such contracts with its partners. Further information about data protection at Findmind can be found here https://www.findmind.ch/top/participants
‍
Note on data transfer to the USA
Among other things, tools from companies based in the USA are integrated on our website. If these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to the US servers of the respective companies. We would like to point out that the USA is not a safe third country in the sense of EU data protection law. US companies are obliged to hand over personal data to security authorities without you as a data subject being able to take legal action against this. It can therefore not be ruled out that US authorities (e.g. intelligence services) process, evaluate and permanently store your data located on US servers for monitoring purposes. We have no influence on these processing activities.
