Understanding how your data is handled at Pannenhilfe Navigator (road-toolsat.online)

At Pannenhilfe Navigator, accessible from road-toolsat.online, your privacy is of paramount importance to us. This Privacy Policy outlines the types of information that is collected and recorded by Pannenhilfe Navigator and how we use it. We are committed to protecting the personal data of our website visitors and service users in Austria. This document aims to be clear and transparent about our data processing activities.

1. Data Controller

The data controller responsible for the processing of your personal data on this website is:

Pannenhilfe Navigator
Getreidegasse 22
5020 Salzburg, Austria
Email: [email protected]

As the data controller, we determine the purposes and means of processing personal data. We are dedicated to ensuring that your data is handled in compliance with applicable data protection laws, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Austrian Data Protection Act.

2. Data Collected and Purpose

We collect personal data only when it is necessary for the provision of our services or for communication purposes. The primary instance of data collection on road-toolsat.online is through our contact form.

  • Contact Form Inputs: When you use the contact form on our website, we collect the following information:
    • Name: To address you personally in our correspondence.
    • Email Address: To respond to your inquiry and communicate with you.
    • Message: The content of your inquiry, which may contain further personal details you choose to share.

The purpose of collecting this data is solely to facilitate communication with you, respond to your inquiries, and provide information or support related to our road assistance guidance services in Austria. We do not collect any sensitive personal data through our contact forms.

3. Cookies and Local Storage

Our website, road-toolsat.online, uses cookies and local storage in a very limited and privacy-focused manner.

  • Cookie Consent: We use a single, essential local storage item to record your preference regarding our cookie consent banner. This allows us to remember your choice and prevent the banner from reappearing on every visit once you have made a selection. This is purely functional and does not store any personal identifiable information beyond your consent preference.
  • No Tracking Cookies: We explicitly do not use any tracking cookies, advertising cookies, or third-party cookies that would monitor your browsing behavior across different websites.
  • No Analytics: We do not employ any third-party analytics services (e.g., Google Analytics, Matomo, etc.) that would collect data about your visits, page views, or user interactions. Our website operates without these tools to enhance your privacy.
  • No Advertising Pixels: There are no advertising pixels or similar technologies integrated into road-toolsat.online. We do not engage in targeted advertising based on website usage.

You can typically manage cookie preferences through your browser settings. However, given our minimal use of cookies, this should have little impact on your experience on our site.

4. Legal Basis for Processing

The legal basis for processing the personal data collected through our contact form is your consent, as per Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. By submitting your inquiry via the contact form, you explicitly consent to us processing your name, email address, and message for the purpose of responding to your request.

You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. The withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal. To withdraw your consent, please contact us using the details provided in the "Contact Us" section.

5. Data Sharing and Third Parties

Pannenhilfe Navigator does not share, sell, rent, or trade your personal data with any third parties for marketing or commercial purposes.

Your data submitted via the contact form is processed internally by Pannenhilfe Navigator personnel strictly for the purpose of addressing your inquiry. We do not use third-party service providers for data processing that would involve transferring your contact form data outside of our direct control, nor do we integrate third-party services that would collect this specific data.

In certain limited circumstances, we may be required to disclose your personal data if compelled by law, court order, or governmental request. This would only occur if legally mandated and after careful consideration of such requests.

6. Retention Period

We retain personal data collected through contact inquiries only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purpose for which it was collected, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

Specifically, data from contact form submissions (name, email, message) will be retained for a period of up to 12 months after the last communication regarding your inquiry. This allows us to refer back to previous conversations if you have follow-up questions or require further assistance related to the initial inquiry. After this period, the data will be securely deleted or anonymized.

7. Your Data Protection Rights

Frequently Asked Questions about Privacy

What exactly is "personal data" in this context?

Personal data refers to any information that can directly or indirectly identify you. On road-toolsat.online, this primarily includes your name, email address, and any identifying details you choose to include in your message when using our contact form. We do not collect other types of personal data like location, IP addresses, or device identifiers through tracking.

Is my data shared with Austrian road assistance providers?

No, Pannenhilfe Navigator does not directly share your personal contact form data with any third-party road assistance providers. Our service is to provide guidance and information. If you choose to contact a service provider based on information from our site, you will be initiating that contact directly with them, under their own privacy policies.

How can I withdraw my consent for data processing?

You can withdraw your consent for the processing of your contact form data at any time by sending an email to [email protected]. Please specify your request clearly. Upon receiving your request, we will cease processing your data and delete it, subject to any overriding legal obligations.

What happens if I don't accept the cookie consent?

Our website's functionality is not dependent on cookies for tracking or analytics. The only local storage item we use is to remember your consent preference itself. If you decline, the consent banner might reappear on subsequent visits, but no other functionality will be affected, and no tracking data will be collected.

Do you use any third-party services for website hosting or email?

Like most websites, we utilize standard web hosting services and email providers. While these entities process data on our behalf (e.g., storing website files, delivering emails), they are contractually bound to process data only according to our instructions and in compliance with GDPR. We ensure these providers offer adequate data protection safeguards.

How do you protect my data from unauthorized access?

We implement various security measures, including technical and organizational safeguards, to protect your personal data. This includes using secure connections (HTTPS/SSL) for data transmission, restricting access to data internally to only necessary personnel, and regularly reviewing our security practices. Our website is designed with privacy by design principles.

Where can I find more information about the GDPR?

For comprehensive information on the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), you can consult the official website of the European Commission on data protection, or the website of the Austrian Data Protection Authority (www.dsb.gv.at), which provides detailed guidance relevant to Austria.

Does this policy apply to linked external websites?

No, this Privacy Policy applies only to road-toolsat.online. Our website may contain links to external sites that are not operated by us. If you click on a third-party link, you will be directed to that third party's site. We strongly advise you to review the Privacy Policy of every site you visit, as we have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party sites or services.
