1. Introduction
This website is operated by: transsation.
It is very important to us to handle our website visitors’ data confidentially and to protect it in the best possible way. For this reason, we make every effort to meet the requirements of the GDPR.
Below we explain how we process your data on our website. We use language that is as clear and transparent as possible so that you really understand what happens to your data.
2. General information
2.1 Processing of personal data and other terms
Data protection applies to the processing of personal data. Personal data means all data with which you can be personally identified. This is, for example, the IP address of the device (PC, laptop, smartphone, etc.) you are
currently sitting in front of. Such data is processed when ‘something happens to it’. Here, for example, the IP is transmitted from the browser to our provider and automatically stored there. This is then a processing (according to Art. 4 No. 2 GDPR) of personal data (according to Art. 4 No. 1 GDPR).
These and other legal definitions can be found in Art. 4 GDPR.
2.2 Applicable regulations/laws – GDPR, BDSG and TTDSG
The scope of data protection is regulated by law. In this case, these are the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) as a European regulation and the BDSG (Federal Data Protection Act) as a national law.
In addition, the TTDSG supplements the provisions of the GDPR as far as the use of cookies is concerned.

The controller within the meaning of the GDPR is responsible for data processing on this website. This is the natural or legal person who alone or jointly with others determines the purposes and means of the processing of
personal data.
You can reach the person responsible at:
Transsation, Zimmerstraße 45, 22085 Hamburg, Germany
claudia.weiss@transsation.com
2.4 How data is generally processed on this website
As we have already established, some data (e.g. IP address) is collected automatically. This data is mainly required for the technical provision of the website. If we also use personal data or collect other data, we will inform you of
this or ask for your consent.
You provide us with other personal data deliberately. You will find detailed information on this below.
2.5 Your rights
The GDPR provides you with comprehensive rights. These include, for example, free information about the origin, recipient and purpose of your stored personal data. You can also request the rectification, blocking or erasure of this data or lodge a complaint with the competent data protection supervisory authority. You can revoke your consent at any time.
The details of these rights and how to exercise them can be found in the last section of this privacy policy.
2.6 Data protection – Our view
Data protection is more than just a chore for us! Personal data has great value and careful handling of this data should be a matter of course in our digitalized world. As a website visitor, you should also be able to decide for yourself what “happens” to your data, when and by whom. That is why we are committed to complying with all legal
regulations, only collect the data we need and, of course, treat it confidentially.
2.7 Forwarding and deletion
The transfer and deletion of data are also important and sensitive issues. We would therefore like to briefly inform you in advance about our general approach to this.
Data will only be passed on the basis of a legal basis and only if this is unavoidable. This may be the case in particular if it is a so-called processor and an order processing contract has been concluded in accordance with Art.
28 GDPR.
We delete your data when the purpose and legal basis for processing no longer apply and the deletion does not conflict with any other legal obligations. Art. 17 GDPR also provides a ‘good’ overview of this.
For further information, please refer to this privacy policy and contact the controller if you have any specific questions.
2.8 Hosting
This website is hosted externally. The personal data collected on this website is stored on the host’s servers. This includes the automatically collected and stored log files (see below for more details), as well as all other data provided by website visitors. External hosting is used for the purpose of secure, fast and reliable provision of
our website and in this context serves to fulfill the contract with our potential and existing customers.
The legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a, b and f GDPR, as well as § 25 para. 1 TTDSG, insofar as consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the terminal device of the website visitor or user within the meaning of the TTDSG.
Our hoster only processes data that is necessary to fulfill its performance obligations and acts as our processor, i.e. It is subject to our instructions. We have concluded a corresponding contract for order processing with our hoster.
We use the following hoster:
IONOS
IONOS SE, Elgendorfer Str. 57, 56410 Montabaur, Germany.
info@ionos.de, https://www.ionos.de/terms-gtc/datenschutzerklaerung/.
2.9 Legal basis
The processing of personal data always requires a legal basis. The GDPR provides the following options in Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1:
a) The data subject has given their consent to the processing of their personal data for one or more specific purposes;
b) processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party or in order to take steps at the request of the data subject prior to entering into a contract;
c) the processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which the controller is subject;
d) processing is necessary in order to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person;
e) processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller;
f) processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by the controller(s) or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests of the data subject.
interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject which require the protection of personal data prevail, in particular where the data subject is a child. In the following sections, we will provide you with the specific legal basis for the respective processing.
3. What happens on our website
When you visit our website, we process your personal data.
We use SSL or TLS encryption to protect this data as best as possible against unauthorized access by third parties. You can recognize this encrypted connection by the https:// or lock symbol in the address bar of your browser.
Below you can find out what data is collected when you visit our website, for what purpose this is done and on what legal basis.
3.1 Data collection when accessing the website
When you visit the website, information is automatically stored in so-called server log files. This is the following information:
• Browser type and browser version
• Operating system used
• Referrer URL
• Host name of the accessing computer
• Time of the server request
• IP address
This data is required temporarily in order to be able to display our website to you permanently and without any problems. In particular, this data is used for the following purposes:
• System security of the website
• System stability of the website

Data processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR and is based on our legitimate interest in the processing of this data, in particular our interest in the functionality of the website and its security.
Where possible, this data is stored in pseudonymized form and deleted once the respective purpose has been achieved. If the server log files make it possible to identify the data subject, the data is stored for a maximum period of 14 days. An exception is made if a security-relevant event occurs. In this case, the server log files are stored until the security-relevant event has been resolved and finally clarified. Otherwise, no merging with other data takes place.

3.4 Cookie Consent Tool 3.4.1 GDPR Cookie Compliance (WordPress Plugin)
We use the Cookie Compliance Plugin for WordPress from Moove Agency, 35 Kingsland Road, London, E2 8AA, United Kingdom, to ensure that only those cookies are set on our website for which there is a legal basis.
This service is used to obtain the website visitor’s consent to the storage of certain cookies in their browser or the use of certain technologies and to document them in accordance with data protection regulations.
When this website is called up, the consent given by the website visitor or the revocation of consent is stored as a cookie in the browser of the website visitor in order to display the set cookie status again on future page views. A
connection to the provider’s servers is established for this purpose. The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR. GDPR Cookie Compliance is used to obtain the legally required consent for the use of cookies.
The data collected will be stored until the website visitor requests its deletion or Moove itself deletes it or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies. The mandatory statutory retention periods remain unaffected by this.

3.5 Social media profiles
We also use the opportunity to place advertisements and job advertisements on social media.
3.5.1 LinkedIn
We operate a LinkedIn profile on https://www.linkedin.com/.
This social network is operated by LinkedIn Corporation, 2029 Stierlin Court, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.
a) Interaction with our company profile
b) Page Insights
LinkedIn provides us with aggregated statistics and insights (called Page Insights) that tell us how people interact with our Company Page. Among other things, we receive information about the number of profiles that view,
comment on or otherwise interact with our posts, as well as aggregated demographic and other information that helps us learn about the interaction with our page or LinkedIn profile. Pages Insights provided to us by LinkedIn
consist of aggregated data, and LinkedIn does not provide us with any personally identifiable information about members in relation to Page Insights. We also have no way of linking Page Insights to individual members.
When placing ads, LinkedIn provides us with information about the types of people who see our ads and about the success of our ads. Personal data is only passed on to us if this person has consented to such processing. We also receive information from LinkedIn that allows us to understand which of our ads led to a purchase being made or an action being taken.
This data is processed for the purpose of analyzing our reach and adapting our content and advertisements to user interests. By evaluating this data, we can recognize how our content, our profile and our advertising are consumed. This enables us to create target group-specific content and place advertisements in order to better market our company and our services.
The processing is based on our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR.
When processing personal data in the course of the so-called Page Insights, the processing is carried out in joint responsibility with LinkedIn in accordance with Art. 26 para. 1 GDPR.
We have concluded a corresponding agreement with LinkedIn for this purpose, which can be viewed here (https://legal.linkedin.com/pages-joint-controller-addendum).
The contact details of LinkedIn are:
LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company, Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Ireland.
For LinkedIn, you can contact the data protection officer at the following link:
https://www.linkedin.com/help/linkedin/ask/TSO-DPO.
3.5.2 Processing by LinkedIn
In connection with your visit to our company profile, LinkedIn may also process additional personal data. In this case, the processing is carried out under the sole responsibility of LinkedIn and without our knowledge. You can find more information from LinkedIn on this at:
https://de.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy.
4. What else is important Finally, we would like to inform you in detail about your rights and how you will be informed about changes to data protection requirements.
4.1 Your rights in detail
4.1.1 Right to information in accordance with Art. 15 GDPR
You can request information as to whether your personal data is being processed. If this is the case, you can request further information on the
the type and manner of processing. A detailed list can be found in Art. 15 para. 1 lit. a to h GDPR.
4.1.2 Right to rectification in accordance with Art. 16 GDPR
This right includes the correction of incorrect data and the completion of incomplete personal data.
4.1.3 Right to erasure in accordance with Art. 17 GDPR
This so-called ‘right to be forgotten’ gives you the right, under certain conditions, to request the deletion of your personal data by the controller. This is generally the case if the purpose of the data processing no longer applies,
if consent has been withdrawn or the initial processing took place without a legal basis. A detailed list of reasons can be found in Art. 17 para. 1 lit. a to f GDPR. This “right to be forgotten” also corresponds to the controller’s obligation under Art. 17 para. 2 GDPR to take reasonable measures to bring about the general erasure of data.
4.1.4 Right to restriction of processing in accordance with Art. 18 GDPR
This right is subject to the conditions set out in Art. 18 para. 1 lit. a to d.
4.1.5 Right to data portability pursuant to Art. 20 GDPR
This regulates the basic right to receive your own data in a commonly used form and to transfer it to another controller. However, this only applies to data processed on the basis of consent or a contract in accordance with Art. 20 (1)(a) and (b) and insofar as this is technically feasible.
4.1.6 Right to object pursuant to Art. 21 GDPR
In principle, you can object to the processing of your personal data. This applies in particular if your interest in objecting outweighs the legitimate interest of the controller in the processing and if the processing relates to
direct marketing and/or profiling.
4.1.7 Right to “individual decision-making” pursuant to Art. 22 GDPR
In principle, you have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing (including profiling) which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you. However, this right is
also restricted and supplemented by Art. 22 (2) and (4) GDPR.
4.1.8 Further rights
The GDPR contains comprehensive rights to inform third parties whether or how you have asserted rights under Art. 16, 17, 18 GDPR. However, this is only possible or feasible with reasonable effort.
We would like to take this opportunity to draw your attention once again to your right to withdraw your consent in accordance with Art. 7 (3) GDPR. However, this does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out up
to that point. We would also like to draw your attention to your rights under §§ 32 ff. BDSG,
which, however, are largely congruent with the rights just described.
4.1.9 Right to lodge a complaint pursuant to Art. 77 GDPR
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority if you consider that the processing of personal data relating to you infringes this Regulation.
5. What if the GDPR is abolished tomorrow or other changes take place?
The current status of this data protection declaration is 03.04.2024. From time to time it is necessary to adapt the content of the data protection declaration in order to react to actual and legal changes. We therefore reserve the right to amend this privacy policy at any time. We will publish the amended version in the same place and recommend that you read the privacy policy regularly.
