COOKIES
Cookies are used on our website. Cookies are small text information that are stored on your device via your browser. We use session cookies, which are automatically deleted from your browser immediately after you have finished visiting the website. We also use persistent cookies for web analysis. Server requests made by our website, such as libraries and plug-ins (in particular the Google and Facebook services, which are discussed in more detail below), also generate cookies.
The cookies are required to enable certain functions of our website, such as distinguishing whether a visitor is visiting our site for the first time, evaluating the use of the website and compiling reports on activities on the website. Further related services are then to be provided based on the use of the website and the Internet. The processing is based on the legitimate interest of the website operator.
You have the option of preventing cookies from being set by making the appropriate settings in your browser. However, we would like to point out that this may limit the use of our website. Cookies do not install or start any programs or other applications on your computer.
The legal basis for this data processing is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. Our “interest” within the meaning of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f) is the operation of these websites.
USE OF GOOGLE ANALYTICS
We use Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google Inc. (hereinafter: Google), on our website. Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies”, i.e. text files that are stored on your computer and that enable an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, due to the activation of IP anonymisation on these websites, your IP address will be shortened beforehand by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states to 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. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide the website operator with other services relating to internet usage.
We also use “Google Signals”. Google uses what is known as “cross device tracking”. This allows website visits by a single visitor using different devices to be assigned to that one visitor, provided that they have logged into a Google service during the sessions and have activated the “personalized advertising” option in their Google account settings. This means that no personal data or user profiles are accessible to us. If you do not wish to use “Signals”, you can deactivate the “personalized advertising” option in your Google account settings.
The purpose of data processing is to evaluate the use of the website and to compile reports on activities on the website. Further related services are then to be provided based on the use of the website and the Internet. The processing is based on the legitimate interest of the website operator.
You can prevent cookies from being saved 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 downloading and installing the browser plug-in available under the following link: Browser Add On to deactivate Google Analytics.
USE OF GOOGLE MAPS
This website uses Google Maps API to visually display geographic information. When using Google Maps, Google also collects, processes and uses data about the use of the map functions by visitors. You can find more information about data processing by Google in the Google privacy policy. There you can also change your personal data protection settings in the data protection center.
Detailed instructions on how to manage your data in connection with Google products can be found here.
USE OF YOUTUBE VIDEOS
On some of our websites we embed YouTube videos or link to our YouTube channel. The operator of the corresponding plug-ins is YouTube LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. When you visit a page with the YouTube plug-in, a connection is established to YouTube servers. YouTube is informed of the pages you visit. If you are logged into your YouTube account, YouTube can assign your surfing behavior to you personally. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account beforehand.
When a YouTube video is started, the provider uses cookies that collect information about user behavior.
Anyone who has deactivated the storage of cookies for the Google Ad program will not have to worry about such cookies when watching YouTube videos. However, YouTube also stores non-personal usage information in other cookies. If you want to prevent this, you must block the storage of cookies in your browser.
Further information on data protection at “Youtube” can be found in the provider’s privacy policy at: google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/
USE OF SOCIAL MEDIA PLUGINS
Our websites use social media plugins from the providers listed below. You can recognize the plugins by the fact that they are marked with the corresponding logo.
These plugins may send information, which may include personal data, to the service provider and may be used by them. We do not collect any personal data ourselves via the social plugins or through their use.
We have no influence on which data an activated plugin collects and how this data is used by the provider. It must currently be assumed that a direct connection to the provider’s services is established and that at least the IP address and device-related information is collected and used. It is also possible that the service providers try to store cookies on the computer used. Please refer to the data protection information of the respective service provider to find out which specific data is collected and how it is used.
We have integrated the social media buttons of the following companies on our website: Facebook, Google+, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, Xing, LinkedIn, Skype

USE OF THE “FACEBOOK PIXEL”
With the help of the “Facebook pixel” set on our website, which saves a cookie on your computer, we can track the actions of users after they have seen or clicked on one of our Facebook ads. This allows us to record the effectiveness of our Facebook ads for statistical and market research purposes. The data collected in this way is anonymous to us, which means that we do not see the personal data of individual users. However, this data is stored by Facebook.
The Facebook server is informed which specific website you are currently visiting. If you are a member of Facebook and are logged into Facebook while visiting our website, Facebook recognizes which specific website you are currently visiting through the information sent by the plugin. This is then assigned to your personal user account. If, for example, you use the plugin offered by Facebook by clicking the “Like” button or if you leave a comment, this is also assigned to your user account and stored there. Even if you are not a member of Facebook, there is a possibility that Facebook will find out your IP address.
Facebook has published a privacy policy at facebook.com/policy.php. There you will find the purpose and scope of data collection as well as information on the further processing and use of the data by Facebook. Your rights and setting options for protecting your privacy are also published there.
You can prevent the transmission and storage of data about you personally and your surfing behavior if you log out of Facebook. This logout must take place before you visit our website. In addition, various browser add-ons called “Facebook Blocker” are offered. This “Facebook Blocker” prevents the collection and transfer of your visitor data in the future.
GOOGLE ADWORDS
Our websites use Google Conversion Tracking. If you have reached our websites via an advert placed by Google, Google Adwords will place a cookie on your computer. The cookie for conversion tracking is placed when a user clicks on an advert placed by Google. These cookies expire after 30 days and are not used for personal identification. If the user visits certain pages of our website and the cookie has not yet expired, we and Google can recognise that the user clicked on the advert and was redirected to this page. Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. Cookies cannot therefore be tracked across the websites of AdWords customers. The information obtained using the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Customers learn the total number of users who clicked on their advert and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, you will not receive any information that can be used to personally identify users.
If you do not wish to participate in tracking, you can refuse the setting of a cookie required for this purpose – for example, by setting your browser to generally deactivate the automatic setting of cookies or by setting your browser to block cookies from the domain “googleleadservices.com”.
Please note that you must not delete the opt-out cookies as long as you do not want measurement data to be recorded. If you have deleted all your cookies in your browser, you must set the respective opt-out cookie again.
USE OF GOOGLE REMARKETING
This website uses the remarketing function of Google Inc. This function is designed to present interest-based advertisements to website visitors within the Google advertising network. A so-called “cookie” is stored in the browser of the website visitor, which makes it possible to recognize the visitor when he or she visits websites that belong to the Google advertising network. On these pages, visitors can be presented with advertisements that relate to content that the visitor has previously viewed on websites that use the Google remarketing function.
According to Google, it does not collect any personal data during this process. If you do not want to use Google’s remarketing function, you can generally deactivate it by making the appropriate settings at http://www.google.com/settings/ads. Alternatively, you can deactivate the use of cookies for interest-based advertising via the advertising network initiative by following the instructions at networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp.
USE OF GOOGLE TAG MANAGER
We use the service called Google Tag Manager from Google. The Google Tag Manager is an auxiliary service and only processes personal data for technically necessary purposes. The Google Tag Manager loads other components that may collect data. The Google Tag Manager does not access this data. You can find more information about the Google Tag Manager in Google’s privacy policy.
USE OF MATOMO
We use Matomo (formerly Piwik) for web analysis, a service of InnoCraft Ltd., 150 Willis St, 6011 Wellington, New Zealand, NZBN 6106769, (“Matomo”) without cookie technology and in a local server installation in Germany. The protection of your data is important to us, which is why we have additionally configured Matomo so that your IP address is only recorded in abbreviated form. We therefore process your personal usage data anonymously. It is not possible for us to draw any conclusions about you personally. Further information on Matomo’s terms of use and data protection regulations can be found at: https://matomo.org/privacy/
USING THE WORDFENCE SECURITY PLUGIN
This website is secured with the “Wordfence Security” service operated by Defiant Inc., 800 5th Ave., Suite 4100, Seattle, WA 98104, USA. Use is based on legitimate interest within the meaning of the GDPR. The website uses Wordfence Security to protect against viruses and malware and to ward off attacks by criminals. The plug-in sets cookies to detect whether the website is actually visited by a person or a robot. For the purpose of protection against so-called brute force attacks (numerous automated login attempts from the same identity) or against hacker comment spam, IP addresses are stored on the Wordfence servers. IP addresses classified as harmless are placed on a white list. Wordfence Security secures this website and thus also protects visitors to the website from viruses and malware. This represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of the GDPR. The Live Traffic View (real-time live traffic) option of the plug-in is reduced to a security-relevant list. Further information on the collection and use of data by Wordfence Security can be found in the provider’s privacy policy: https://www.wordfence.com/privacy-policy/
STORAGE OF SEARCH QUERIES
We use the Relevanssi plugin to save anonymized search queries from our users. If users use the search function on this website, the text of the search query is saved on our server.
The text of the search query is saved in a database together with a timestamp and the number of search results that this search generated at that time. No IP addresses are saved. It is not possible to trace individual users.
Saving the search queries enables us to examine the search queries and improve the content and offering of this website. The legal basis for this data processing is Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR: the processing is necessary to protect the legitimate interests of the controller or a third party, unless the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject which require the protection of personal data prevail, in particular if the data subject is a child.
USING CHATGPT
We use ChatGPT for data processing, a service provided by OpenAI Ireland Ltd, with registered office at 1st Floor, The Liffey Trust Centre, 117-126 Sheriff Street Upper, Dublin 1, D01 YC43, Ireland and company number 737350. Only the content entered into the chat window is passed on. Your interactions with us are processed anonymously so that it is not possible to identify you personally. For more information on OpenAI’s terms of use and data protection regulations, see: https://openai.com/policies/privacy-policy/
USING LANGSMITH
We use LangSmith to link questions and data from the manual, a service provided by INSTANT EU GDPR REPRESENTATIVE LIMITED Office 2 12A Lower Main Street, Lucan Co. Dublin K78 X5P8 Ireland. Only the content entered into the chat window is passed on. Your interactions with us are processed anonymously so that it is not possible to identify you personally. For more information on OpenAI’s terms of use and data protection regulations, see: https://www.langchain.com/privacy-policy
USE OF HOTJAR
We use Hotjar to better understand the needs of our users and to optimize the offer and experience on this website. With the help of Hotjar’s technology, we get a better understanding of the experiences of our users (e.g. how much time users spend on which pages, which links they click, what they like and what they don’t like, etc.) and this helps us to align our offer with the feedback of our users. Hotjar works with cookies and other technologies to collect data about the behavior of our users and their devices, in particular the IP address of the device (only recorded and stored in an anonymized form during your website use), screen size, device type (Unique Device Identifiers), information about the browser used, location (country only), preferred language for displaying our website. Hotjar stores this information on our behalf in a pseudonymized user profile. Hotjar is contractually prohibited from selling the data collected on our behalf. For more information, see “Your privacy & Hotjar”
USE OF MICROSOFT ADS / BING CONVERSION
On our website we use conversion tracking from Microsoft Corporation, One Microsoft Way, Redmond, WA 98052-6399, USA. Microsoft Bing Ads stores a cookie on your computer if you have accessed our website via a Microsoft Bing ad. In this way, Microsoft Bing and we can recognize that someone has clicked on an ad, been redirected to our website and reached a previously determined landing page (conversion page). We only learn the total number of users who have clicked on a Bing ad and were then redirected to the conversion page. No personal information about the identity of the user is disclosed.
If you do not want information about your behavior to be used by Microsoft as explained above, you can refuse the setting of a cookie required for this purpose – for example, by using a browser setting that generally deactivates the automatic setting of cookies. You can also prevent the collection of data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website as well as the processing of this data by Microsoft by declaring your objection at the following link: https://account.microsoft.com/privacy/ad-settings/signedout?lang=de-DE. Further information on data protection and the cookies used by Microsoft and Bing Ads can be found on the Microsoft website at https://privacy.microsoft.com/de-de/privacystatement
INTEGRATION OF THIRD PARTY SERVICES
It may happen that third-party content, such as RSS feeds or graphics from other websites, is integrated into our website. This always assumes that the providers of this content (hereinafter referred to as “third-party providers”) perceive the IP address of the user. Without the IP address, they would not be able to send the content to the browser of the respective user. The IP address is therefore necessary for the display of this content. We endeavor to only use content whose respective providers only use the IP address to deliver the content. However, we have no influence on whether the third-party providers save the IP address, for example for statistical purposes. If we are aware of this, we will inform the users about it.
We always ensure that European data protection standards are maintained in order to protect your data effectively.
PURPOSES OF PROCESSING PERSONAL DATA
We process the aforementioned data for the operation of our website and to fulfill contractual obligations towards our customers.
If you send us enquiries outside of an active customer relationship, we process the data for sales and advertising purposes. You can object to the use of your personal data for advertising purposes at any time.
VOLUNTARY INFORMATION AND ENRICHMENT THROUGH THIRD-PARTY SOURCES
If you voluntarily provide us with data, e.g. in forms, and this is not necessary for the fulfilment of our contractual obligations, we will process this data on the basis that we assume that the processing and use of this data is in your interest.
When you send us enquiries via the contact form, by email or when booking an online live demo, we will enrich your submitted data with publicly available information, e.g. from your own website or search results, if necessary. We process this data on the basis that we assume that the processing and use of this data is in your interest in order to be able to offer you the best possible pre-contractual advice.
RECIPIENT / SHARING OF DATA
Data that you provide to us will not be passed on to third parties unless this is necessary for the purpose of contract processing or information provision. For example, if you make enquiries via our contact form or book online presentations, we may need to pass on your data to our local sales partners in order to ensure regional support.
In particular, your data will not be passed on to third parties for their advertising purposes.
However, we may use service providers and processors to operate these websites or for other of our products. In this case, it may happen that a service provider becomes aware of personal data. We select our service providers carefully – especially with regard to data protection and data security – and take all measures required by data protection law for permissible data processing.
DATA PROCESSING OUTSIDE THE EUROPEAN UNION
In order to provide its services and thus to process personal data, zollsoft GmbH uses, among others, contract processors (i.e. IT system providers) from a so-called third country (USA) outside the European Union (G Suite from Google, Mailchimp for newsletter dispatch).
When selecting service providers from non-secure third countries, care is taken to ensure that they comply with the GDPR with regard to data protection and data security. There are contract processing agreements with the service providers used and the appropriate level of data protection is guaranteed by using EU standard clauses.
