Privacy policy

A. Data protection
Responsible for data processing: Certiff is delighted that you are interested in our website. On the outset, protecting your privacy is very important to us. Below we inform you in detail about the handling of your data.

1.  Access Data and Hosting
You can visit our website without providing any personal information. Each time a website is called up, the web server automatically saves a so-called server log file, which contains, for example, the name of the requested file, your IP address, date and time of the call, the amount of data transferred and the requesting provider (access data) and documents the call. This access data is evaluated exclusively for the purpose of ensuring trouble-free operation of the site and improving our offer. This serves to protect our overriding legitimate interests in a correct presentation of our offer in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 Sentence 1 lit. f GDPR. All access data will be deleted no later than seven days after the end of your visit to the site.

 1.1.  Hosting
The services for hosting and displaying the website are partly provided by our service providers as part of processing on our behalf. Unless otherwise stated in the present data protection declaration, all access data and all data collected in the forms provided on this website are processed on their servers. If you have any questions about our service providers and the basis of our cooperation with them, please use the contact option described in this data protection declaration. Our service providers are located in Germany.

 1.2. Content Delivery Network
For the purpose of a shorter loading time, we use a so-called Content Delivery Network (“CDN”) for some offers. With this service, content, such as large media files, is delivered via regionally distributed servers from external CDN service providers.

If you have any questions about our service providers and the basis of our cooperation with you, please use the contact option described in this data protection declaration. Our service providers are located in Germany and The Netherlands.

We collect personal data if you voluntarily provide it to us when contacting us (e.g. via contact form or e-mail). Mandatory fields are marked as such, since in these cases we need the data to process your contact and you cannot send the contact without providing this information. Which data is collected can be seen from the respective input forms. We use the data you provide to process your inquiries in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 Sentence 1 lit. b GDPR.

After your customer request has been fully processed, your data will be restricted for further processing and deleted after the tax and commercial retention periods in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 Sentence 1 lit. c GDPR, unless you expressly consent to further use of your data in accordance with Article 6 paragraph 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR or we reserve the right to use data beyond this, which is permitted by law and about which we will inform you in this declaration.
