How BridgeToConnect collects, uses, and protects your personal data.
The following gives a simple overview of what kind of personal information we collect, why we collect it, and how we handle your data when you visit or use our website. Personal information is any data with which you could be personally identified. Detailed information can be found in the sections below.
Who is responsible for data collection?
The data collected on this website are processed by the website operator. The operator's contact details can be found in the website's legal notice.
How do we collect your data?
Some data are collected when you provide them to us — for example, data you enter in a contact form. Other data are collected automatically by our IT systems when you visit the website, such as browser and operating system information or the time you accessed the page.
What do we use your data for?
Part of the data is collected to ensure the proper functioning of the website. Other data may be used to analyze how visitors use the site.
What rights do you have regarding your data?
You always have the right to request information about your stored data, its origin, its recipients, and the purpose of its collection at no charge. You also have the right to request that your data be corrected, blocked, or deleted. You can contact us at any time at the address given in our legal notice if you have further questions about privacy and data protection. You may also file a complaint with the competent regulatory authorities.
When visiting our website, statistical analyses may be made of your surfing behavior using cookies and analytics tools. The analysis is usually anonymous and pseudonymized, meaning we will not be able to identify you directly from this data.
The operators of this website take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data as confidential and in accordance with statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy.
Please note that data transmitted via the internet (e.g. via email) may be subject to security breaches. Complete protection of your data from third-party access is not possible.
The party responsible for processing data on this website decides alone or jointly with others on the purposes and means of processing personal data (names, email addresses, etc.).
Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You may revoke your consent at any time with future effect by sending an informal email to us. Data processed before we receive your request may still be legally processed.
If there has been a breach of data protection legislation, the affected person may file a complaint with the competent regulatory authorities.
You have the right to have data which we process based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract automatically delivered to yourself or to a third party in a standard, machine-readable format. If you require direct transfer of data to another responsible party, this will only be done to the extent technically feasible.
Payment transactions using common means of payment (Visa/MasterCard, direct debit) are only made via encrypted SSL or TLS connections. You can recognize an encrypted connection when the browser address bar shows "https://" and the lock icon is visible. Any payment details you submit via an encrypted connection cannot be read by third parties.
As permitted by law, you have the right to be provided at any time with information about your personal data that is stored, including its origin, recipient, and the purpose for which it has been processed. You also have the right to have your data corrected, blocked, or deleted. Contact us at any time using the address given in our legal notice for further questions on personal data.
We expressly prohibit the use of contact data published in the context of website legal notice requirements for sending promotional and informational materials not expressly requested. We reserve the right to take specific legal action if unsolicited advertising material, such as email spam, is received.
