Data protection

We have written this data protection declaration in order to explain to you in accordance with the provisions of the EU General Data Protection Regulation what information we collect, how we use data and what choices you have as a visitor to this website. Unfortunately, it is in the nature of things that these explanations sound very technical, but we have tried to describe the most important things simply and clearly when creating them. 

Data responsibility: Andreas Nairz

Automatic data storage

When you visit websites today, certain information is automatically created and stored, including on this website. If you visit our website as you are right now, our web server (computer on which this website is stored) automatically saves data such as the IP address of your device, the addresses of the subpages visited, details about your browser (e.g. Chrome, Firefox, Edge, ...) and date and time. We do not use this data and usually do not pass it on, but we cannot rule out that this data will be viewed in the event of illegal behavior.

storage of personal data

Personal data that you transmit to us electronically on this website, such as name, e-mail address, address or other personal information when submitting a form or comments on the blog, will be stored by us together with the time and the IP Address used only for the purpose stated, kept safe and not passed on to third parties. We therefore only use your personal data for communication with those visitors who expressly request contact and for the processing of the services and products offered on this website. We do not pass on your personal data without your consent, but we cannot rule out that this data will be viewed in the event of illegal behavior. If you send us personal data by e-mail - thus outside of this website - we cannot guarantee a secure transmission and the protection of your data. We recommend that you never send confidential data unencrypted by e-mail.

In Austria, this is the data protection authority, whose websites you can find at https://www.dsb.gv.at/Find  .

Obligation to provide information or right to information

The Data Protection Act grants a data subject (i.e. a natural or legal person or group of people whose data is used) a right to information about all data processed about him.

However, the information seeker must prove his identity and he must also participate in the information procedure to a reasonable extent in order to avoid unjustified and disproportionate effort for this.

The request for information must be in writing to an info@alpineballooning.at  or the postal address below.

If there is no personal data on the person requesting information, this fact will be announced  (so-called negative information).

What does the information include?

  • All processed data relating to the information seeker,

  • the information about their origin,

  • any transmission recipients (groups),

  • the purpose of data use,

  • the legal basis for the use of data

Send your request for information in writing by email to the following address:

info@alpineballooning.at

We are obliged to provide you with the relevant information within 8 weeks or to object to your request!

 

TLS encryption with https

We use https to transmit data securely on the Internet. By using TLS (Transport Layer Security), an encryption protocol for secure data transmission on the Internet, we can ensure the protection of confidential data. You can recognize the use of this protection of data transmission by the small lock symbol in the top left corner of the browser and the use of the https scheme as part of our Internet address.
