Privacy Policy for Boom Strategy GmbH as of 15.11.2023

Thank you for your interest in our company. The protection and security of your personal data is of particular concern to us and has a high priority. The Boom Strategy GmbH website can be used without providing any personal data. However, if a data subject wishes to make use of special services of our company via our website, it may be necessary to process personal data.

If we process personal data (such as a person’s name, address, email address or telephone number), we always do so in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation and in compliance with the applicable country-specific data protection regulations. In this privacy policy, we inform you about the most important aspects of data processing on our website, what type of data is collected and for what purpose it is collected. Furthermore, this privacy policy informs data subjects about the rights to which they are entitled. If the processing of personal data is necessary and there is no legal basis for such processing, we generally obtain the consent of the data subject.

As the controller, the Boom Strategy GmbH has implemented numerous technical and organisational measures to ensure the most complete protection of personal data processed through this website. Nevertheless, Internet-based data transmissions can generally have security gaps, so that absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, every data subject is free to transmit personal data to us by alternative means, for example by telephone. If you have any questions, please contact us.

If you contact us using the form on the website or by e-mail, the data you provide will be stored by us for six months for the purpose of processing your enquiry and in the event of follow-up questions. We will not pass on this data without your consent.

2. collection of general data and information / data transmission / data logging

The website of the Boom Strategy GmbH collects a series of general data and information when a data subject or automated system calls up the website. This general data and information is stored in the server log files. The (1) browser types and versions used, (2) the operating system used by the accessing system, (3) the website from which an accessing system accesses our website (so-called referrer), (4) the sub-websites which are accessed via an accessing system on our website can be recorded, (5) the date and time of access to the website, (6) the anonymised internet protocol address (IP address), (7) the internet service provider of the accessing system and (8) other similar data and information used for security purposes in the event of attacks on our information technology systems.
When using these general data and information, the Boom Strategy GmbH does not draw any conclusions about the data subject. Rather, this information is needed to (1) deliver the content of our website correctly, (2) optimise the content of our website and the advertising for it, (3) ensure the long-term functionality of our information technology systems and the technology of our website, and (4) provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for criminal prosecution in the event of a cyber attack. Therefore, the Boom Strategy GmbH analyses anonymously collected data and information statistically, with the aim of increasing the data protection and data security of our enterprise, and to ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal data we process. The anonymous data of the server log files are stored separately from all personal data provided by a data subject.

3. All data is collected solely for the purpose of statistical analysis. The data will not be passed on to third parties for commercial or non-commercial purposes.

4. use of personal data

Personal data is only collected or processed if you provide this information voluntarily. Unless there are necessary reasons in connection with a business transaction, you can revoke the previously granted authorisation of your personal data storage in writing (e.g. by e-mail or fax) at any time with immediate effect. Your data will not be passed on to third parties unless this is required by law.

5. Information, modification and deletion of your data

In accordance with applicable law, you can ask us in writing at any time whether and what personal data we have stored about you.

6. Security of your data

Your personal data provided to us is secured by taking all technical and organisational security measures to ensure that it cannot be accessed by unauthorised third parties. When sending very sensitive data or information, it is advisable to use the postal service, as complete data security cannot be guaranteed by e-mail.

7.Cookies

Cookies are small data records that are stored on your computer. The purpose of these cookies is, for example, better control of the connection during your visit to our website and more effective support when you return to our website. Without this temporary „caching“, some applications would require you to re-enter data that you have already entered. A cookie only contains the data that a server outputs and/or the user enters on request (e.g. structure: information on domain, path, expiry date, cookie name and value). Cookies therefore contain purely technical information, no personal data.

The most common types of cookies are explained below for your understanding:

Session cookies: While you are active on a website, a session cookie is temporarily stored in the memory of your end device, in which a session ID is stored, e.g. to prevent you from having to log in again each time you change pages. Session cookies are deleted when you log out or lose their validity as soon as your session has automatically expired.

Persistent cookies: Persistent cookies store a file on your end device for the period specified in the expiration date. These cookies allow the website to remember your information and settings on your next visit. This leads to faster and more convenient access, as you do not have to change your language settings for our website again, for example.

Third-party cookies: Third-party cookies are session or persistent cookies that originate from a provider other than the website operator. These cookies collect information such as length of visit, page views, movement via links, etc. They are used, for example, to display certain advertising content resulting from search histories, websites visited and the like. These cookies cannot be read by us.

8. Cookies requiring consent on this website

You have the option of giving us your consent to the cookies listed below at any time. We will not use any of these services until we have received your consent. You can withdraw your consent at any time.

We use the following types of cookies on this website, the scope and function of which are explained below:

Performance cookies: These cookies help us to understand how visitors interact with our website by providing data on which websites or search terms bring users to our websites, how long they typically stay on our websites or how many subpages they visit on average.
We use this data to improve the content of the websites and to compile statistics on individual use of the websites for internal market analysis purposes.
This data does not allow any direct conclusions to be drawn about your person. All data collected by us is only processed in aggregated form.

Functional cookies: These cookies are necessary to provide enhanced functionality and personalization. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we use on our pages

Cookies for marketing purposes: These cookies are used to collect information about the websites visited by the user in order to create targeted advertising for the user and to display advertisements based on the user’s interests. They are also used to limit the frequency with which an advertisement appears and to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. This information may be shared with third parties, such as advertisers.
If you wish, you can generally suppress the storage of cookies (or certain types of cookies) via your web browser or decide whether or not you wish them to be stored via a notice. However, not accepting cookies may mean that some pages are no longer displayed correctly or that their usability is restricted.

Cookies that are required to carry out the electronic communication process or to provide certain functions that you have requested are stored on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. We have a legitimate interest in the storage of cookies for the technically error-free and optimized provision of our services.

List of cookies that require consent:

9. Use of Google Tag Manager

This website uses Google Tag Manager. This service allows website tags to be managed via an interface. The Google Tool Manager only implements tags. This means that no cookies are used and no personal data is collected. The Google Tool Manager triggers other tags, which in turn may collect data. However, the Google Tag Manager does not access this data. If a deactivation has been made at domain or cookie level, it remains in place for all tracking tags, provided that these are implemented with the Google Tag Manager.

10. Use of Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 USA, hereinafter referred to as „Google“. Google Analytics uses „cookies“, which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there.
However, your IP address will be anonymized and shortened beforehand by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. Google may use this information on behalf of the operator of this website for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage to the website operator. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google’s behalf.
The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser, however please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website. You can also prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website (including your IP address) and from processing this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at this link.
This website uses Google Analytics reports on demographic characteristics, in which data from interest-based advertising by Google and visitor data from third-party providers (e.g. age, gender and interests) are used. This data cannot be traced back to a specific person and can be deactivated at any time via the ad settings. By using our website, you consent to the processing of data about you by Google in the manner and for the purposes set out above.
Note: We have activated the IP anonymization function for Google Analytics on all pages of our website, so your IP address will not be stored in full by Google! You can also prevent your browser from setting cookies (all common browsers offer settings for this), and there are also tools that prevent tracking by Google Analytics. Furthermore, Google offers a deactivation option for the most common browsers, which gives you more control over which data is collected and processed by Google. If you activate this option, no information about your website visit will be transmitted to Google Analytics. However, activation does not prevent information from being transmitted to us or to other web analysis services we may use. For more information on the deactivation option provided by Google and how to activate this option, please click on the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de

11. use of Facebook components

We use components of the provider facebook.com on our website. Facebook is a service of facebook Inc, 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA. Each time you access our website, which is equipped with such a component, this component causes the browser you are using to download a corresponding representation of the component from facebook. This process informs facebook which specific page of our website you are currently visiting.

If you visit our site while you are logged in to facebook, facebook recognizes which specific page you are visiting through the information collected by the component and assigns this information to your personal account on facebook. For example, if you click on the „Like“ button or make comments, this information is transmitted to your personal user account on facebook and stored there. In addition, the information that you have visited our site will be passed on to facebook. This happens regardless of whether you click on the component or not.

If you want to prevent this transmission and storage of data about you and your behavior on our website by facebook, you must log out of facebook before you visit our site. Facebook’s data protection information provides more detailed information on this, in particular on the collection and use of data by Facebook, your rights in this regard and the setting options for protecting your privacy: https://de-de.facebook.com/about/privacy/. You can find an overview of the Facebook plugins at https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/

12. Use of Twitter Recommendation Components

We use components of the provider Twitter on our website. Twitter is a service of Twitter Inc, 795 Folsom St., Suite 600, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA.
Each time you access our website, which is equipped with such a component, this component causes the browser you are using to download a corresponding representation of the component from Twitter. This process informs Twitter which specific page of our website is currently being visited.
We have no influence over the data that Twitter collects in this way, nor over the scope of this data collected by Twitter. To the best of our knowledge, Twitter collects the URL of the respective website accessed and the IP address of the user, but does not use it for purposes other than displaying the Twitter component. Further information on this can be found in Twitter’s privacy policy at http://twitter.com/privacy.
You can change your data protection settings in the account settings at http://twitter.com/account/settings.

13. Use of YouTube components with extended data protection mode

We use components (videos) of YouTube, LLC 901 Cherry Ave, 94066 San Bruno, CA, USA, a company of Google Inc, Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, on our website.
We use the „extended data protection mode“ option provided by YouTube.
When you access a page that has an embedded video, a connection to the YouTube servers is established and the content is displayed on the website by notifying your browser. According to YouTube, in „extended data protection mode“, data is only transmitted to the YouTube server, in particular which of our websites you have visited when you watch the video. If you are logged in to YouTube at the same time, this information will be assigned to your YouTube member account. You can prevent this by logging out of your member account before visiting our website.
Further information on data protection from YouTube is provided by Google at the following link: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/

14. Data protection for applications / application procedures and publication of job advertisements

Boom Strategy GmbH collects and processes the personal data of applicants for the purpose of handling the application process. Processing may also take place electronically. This is particularly the case if an applicant submits corresponding application documents to Boom Strategy GmbH electronically, for example by e-mail or via a web form on the website.
If Boom Strategy GmbH concludes an employment contract with an applicant, the transmitted data will be stored for the purpose of processing the employment relationship in compliance with the statutory provisions. If no employment contract is concluded with the applicant, the application documents will be automatically deleted two months after notification of the rejection decision, provided that no other legitimate interests prevent deletion. Other legitimate interest in this sense is, for example, a burden of proof in proceedings under the General Equal Treatment Act (AGG), if longer storage is necessary or if you have expressly consented to longer storage in our database of interested parties.

15. Your Rights

In principle, you have the rights to information, correction, deletion, restriction, data portability, revocation and objection. If you believe that the processing of your data violates data protection law or your data protection rights have been violated in any other way, you can lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority. In Austria, this is the data protection authority.

16. Routine deletion and blocking of personal data

Boom Strategy GmbH processes and stores personal data of the data subject only for the period of time necessary to achieve the purpose of storage or if this has been provided for by the European directive and regulation giver or another legislator in laws or regulations to which Boom Strategy GmbH is subject.
If the purpose of storage ceases to apply or if a storage period prescribed by the European Directive and Regulation Giver or another competent legislator expires, the personal data will be routinely blocked or deleted in accordance with the statutory provision.

17. Legal basis for processing

Art. 6 I lit. a GDPR serves our company as the legal basis for processing operations for which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party, as is the case, for example, with processing operations necessary for the supply of goods or the provision of any other service or consideration, the processing is based on Art. 6 I lit. b GDPR. The same applies to such processing operations that are necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures, for example in cases of inquiries about our products or services.
If our company is subject to a legal obligation which requires the processing of personal data, such as for the fulfillment of tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6 I lit. c GDPR. In rare cases, the processing of personal data may become necessary in order to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person.
This would be the case, for example, if a visitor were injured in our company and their name, age, health insurance data or other vital information had to be passed on to a doctor, hospital or other third party. The processing would then be based on Art. 6 I lit. d GDPR. Ultimately, processing operations could be based on Art. 6 I lit. f GDPR. Processing operations that are not covered by any of the aforementioned legal bases are based on this legal basis if the processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party, provided that the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not prevail.
We are permitted to carry out such processing operations in particular because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator. In this respect, it took the view that a legitimate interest could be assumed if the data subject is a customer of the controller (Recital 47 Sentence 2 GDPR).

18. Legitimate interests in the processing pursued by the controller or by a third party

Where the processing of personal data is based on Article 6 I lit. f GDPR our legitimate interest is to carry out our business in favor of the well-being of all our employees and our shareholders.

19. Duration for which the personal data is stored

The criterion for the duration of the storage of personal data is the respective statutory retention period. Once this period has expired, the corresponding data is routinely deleted, provided it is no longer required for the fulfillment or initiation of a contract.

20. legal or contractual provisions for the provision of personal data; necessity for the conclusion of the contract; obligation of the data subject to provide the personal data; possible consequences of failure to provide such data

We inform you that the provision of personal data is partly required by law (e.g. tax regulations) or may also result from contractual provisions (e.g. information on the contractual partner). Sometimes it may be necessary for a contract to be concluded for a data subject to provide us with personal data that must subsequently be processed by us. For example, the data subject is obliged to provide us with personal data if our company concludes a contract with them. Failure to provide the personal data would mean that the contract with the data subject could not be concluded. Before the data subject provides personal data, the data subject must contact our data protection officer. Our data protection officer will inform the data subject on a case-by-case basis whether the provision of the personal data is required by law or contract or is necessary for the conclusion of the contract, whether there is an obligation to provide the personal data and what the consequences would be if the personal data were not provided.
If you wish to prevent this transmission and storage of data about you and your behavior on our website by the respective provider, you must log out of these providers before you visit our site.
You can find out more about the data collection of the respective providers on their web platforms

21 Changes to this privacy policy

22. Contact possibility via the website

The website of the Boom Strategy GmbH contains information that enables a quick electronic contact to our enterprise, as well as direct communication with us, which also includes a general address of the so-called electronic mail (e-mail address). If a data subject contacts the controller by email or via a contact form, the personal data transmitted by the data subject is automatically stored. Such personal data transmitted on a voluntary basis by a data subject to the controller are stored for the purposes of processing or contacting the data subject. This personal data is not passed on to third parties.
