2. Scope of protection

This notice covers personal data as defined in Art. 4 (1) GDPR — any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person, e.g. name, postal address, email address, phone number, and where applicable usage data such as your IP address.

3. Security of your data

All data is transmitted encrypted (TLS/HTTPS). We use technical and organisational measures to protect your data against loss, destruction, manipulation and unauthorised access. Our employees are committed to confidentiality and receive regular data-protection training.

4. Site access (server logs)

When you visit our website, our hosting provider processes technically necessary log data (anonymised IP address, date/time, requested resource, referrer, user agent). This data is processed solely to provide, stabilise and secure the service (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR — legitimate interest) and is deleted or anonymised after a short retention period.

5. Contact and enquiry form

If you contact us via the event enquiry form or by email, we process the details you provide (e.g. name, company, email, phone, location, timeframe, staffing needs, notes) to handle your request and, where appropriate, for follow-up. The legal basis is Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR (pre-contractual measures/contract performance) or Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR (legitimate interest in responding).

We delete this data once it is no longer required, unless statutory retention obligations apply (in general up to 10 years under German commercial and tax law for contract-related correspondence).

6. Cookies and analytics

We use cookies and comparable technologies only with your consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR, § 25 (1) TDDDG), except for strictly necessary cookies (§ 25 (2) TDDDG). You can withdraw your consent at any time via the cookie settings; this does not affect the lawfulness of prior processing.

Details on the providers used (including Google Analytics 4, Google Ads, Meta Pixel, LinkedIn Insight Tag), retention periods, transfers to third countries and opt-out options are provided in our cookie policy.

7. External links and third parties

Our website may contain links to external websites operated by third parties. The respective operators are solely responsible for their content and data processing. We do not share personal data with third parties without a legal basis.

8. Email communication

We do not send unsolicited advertising (spam). We use email to reply to your enquiries, confirm orders and send requested information. You may object to further contact at any time by informing us in writing (e.g. by email).

9. Purpose limitation and disclosure

We only process personal data for the purposes described in this notice. We disclose data to third parties only where necessary for contract performance, where you have consented, or where a legal basis exists (e.g. official or court order). Processors are carefully selected and bound by contract in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR.

10. Retention

We retain personal data only as long as necessary for the stated purposes or as required by statutory retention rules (in particular under German commercial and tax law). Thereafter, the data is routinely deleted.

11. Your rights

You have the right to information (Art. 15 GDPR), rectification (Art. 16), erasure (Art. 17), restriction of processing (Art. 18), data portability (Art. 20) and objection to processing based on legitimate interests (Art. 21). You may withdraw consent at any time with effect for the future (Art. 7 (3) GDPR).

To exercise your rights, an informal message to info@sifat.de is sufficient. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority (Art. 77 GDPR); for us this is the Berlin Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information.

12. Updates and changes

We reserve the right to adapt this privacy notice so that it always meets current legal requirements or reflects changes to our services. The updated version will apply from your next visit.
