Protection of your personal data

Personal data are data which allow a particular person to be identified. This includes, but is not limited to, their name, address, date of birth and IP address.

We take the protection and security of your personal data very seriously. We handle your personal data in confidence and in accordance with the legal data protection provisions (GDPR) and this Privacy Policy.

The use of our website is generally possible without providing personal data. Insofar as personal data are collected on this website, this always takes place on a voluntary basis. These data are not disclosed to third parties without your express consent. The processing of your personal data therefore takes place exclusively if you have provided your express consent or if there is any other legal basis.

If you have any questions in connection with this Privacy Policy, please email us at the following address: info@sewage-management.com

Your rights to information and erasure

You have the right to request at any time and free of charge information about the personal data relating to you which we have stored, its origin and recipient(s), and the purpose of the data processing, as well as a right to rectification, objection, data portability, restriction of processing, and the barring or erasure of data that have been processed incorrectly or unlawfully.

You have the right to revoke at any time any consent you have provided for the use of your personal data. To assert the rights to which you are entitled as a data subject (information, erasure, rectification, objection and/or data portability) please contact info@sewage-management.com.

If you believe that our processing of your personal data infringes the data protection law in force, or that the rights to which you are entitled under data protection law have been violated in any other way, you may lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority. In Austria this is the Austrian Data Protection Authority.

Use of data - security

The data that are provided to us are only used for clearly specified purposes, or purposes that are covered by your consent. The data collection takes place within the framework of provisions which either support the initiation of contracts or are intended for the performance of a contract that has already been concluded, and which are in accordance with the GDPR. The use of the data for statistical purposes is excluded from this, provided that such data have been anonymised. In case we intend to further process your data for a different purpose, we will make information available to you before this further processing about this other purpose and all the relevant information pursuant to Art 13 2. GDPR.

We have put in place organisational and technical measures in accordance with the state of the art to guarantee the protection of your personal data (protection against misuse both internally and externally, for example by means of firewalls, encryption, access authorisations, etc.)

However, we wish to point out that data transmission on the internet (e.g. when communicating by email) can exhibit security gaps. Seamless protection of data against access by third parties is not possible. We do not accept any liability for the unauthorised access by third parties, unless such misuse was culpably caused by us.

Legal effectiveness

By using these webpages, the user becomes subject to the present terms and conditions of use. These form part of the internet offering. If parts or individual wording of the terms and conditions of use do not correspond to the legal situation in force, no longer do so or do not do so completely, the remaining parts of the terms and conditions of use shall remain unaffected by this with regard to their content and validity.

Disclosure of data to third parties

As a matter of principle we do not make your personal data available to any third parties. However, it might be necessary for the performance of a contract or for legal reasons to forward your data to trustworthy third parties. These can be courts of law or authorities or other third parties involved (including processors working for us). In this case the forwarding of your data will take place exclusively on the basis of the GDPR (on the grounds of the consent you have issued, for the purpose of performance of a contract or for the fulfilment of a legal obligation, etc.).

Storage/erasure of data

We will store your personal data no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which they are processed. Data can also be stored for purposes of evidence taking account of the limitation periods or for as long as it is possible that claims (liability) might be asserted against us.
