General

Protecting your personal data matters to us. We process personal data exclusively on the basis of the applicable law, in particular the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the Austrian Data Protection Act (DSG) and the Austrian Telecommunications Act 2021 (TKG 2021). Below we explain the key aspects of data processing on this website.

Hosting and server log files

This website is hosted by Netlify, Inc., 101 2nd Street, San Francisco, CA 94105, USA. When you visit the website, technically necessary data is processed, in particular your IP address, the date and time of access, the page requested, the previously visited page (referrer) and information about your browser and operating system. This data is required to deliver the website and to ensure its security and stability.

The legal basis is our legitimate interest in a secure and functioning website (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Netlify processes this data as a processor on our behalf. Netlify is certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework; transfers to the USA are therefore based on the European Commission’s adequacy decision (Art. 45 GDPR).

No cookies, no tracking

This website does not use cookies and does not use any analytics, tracking or marketing tools. Fonts are delivered together with the website; no external services such as Google Fonts are loaded.

Contacting us by email or phone

If you contact us by email or phone, we process the information you provide (e.g. name, email address, phone number and the content of your inquiry) to handle your inquiry and any follow-up questions. The legal basis is the performance of pre-contractual measures (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR) or our legitimate interest in responding to inquiries (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Your data is deleted once it is no longer required, unless statutory retention obligations apply.

Our email communication is handled via Microsoft 365 (Microsoft Ireland Operations Limited, One Microsoft Place, South County Business Park, Leopardstown, Dublin 18, Ireland).

Your rights

You generally have the right to access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability and objection. To exercise your rights, simply send a message to office@chainforce.at.

If you believe that the processing of your data violates data protection law, you can lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority. In Austria, this is the Datenschutzbehörde (Data Protection Authority), Barichgasse 40–42, 1030 Vienna, www.dsb.gv.at.
