We know that careful handling of your personal data is very important to you. We therefore take protecting your personal data very seriously and comply with the applicable provisions of law when we collect, process or use personal data. This Data Protection Policy applies only to our website at the URL www.isaria.ag. It does not apply to websites to which we merely refer through links.
Personal data are defined as any information that relates to an identified or identifiable natural person. It includes, for example, information such as your name, address, telephone number, e-mail address, IP address or user behavior. Information that we are unable (or able only at a disproportionate cost) to attribute to your person, for example because the information has been anonymized, does not constitute personal data. For personal data to be processed (e.g. collected, retrieved, used, stored or transferred), a legal basis for, or your consent to, that processing is always required. Processed personal data are erased as soon as the purpose for which they were processed is achieved and there are no further legally imposed preservation duties to observe.
In regard to any data processing we undertake for the purpose of providing certain services, we provide information below concerning the specific processing operations, the scope and purpose of the data processing, the legal basis for the processing, and how long the processed data are stored.
Art. 6(1) sent. 1 lit. f GDPR (EU General Data Protection Regulation) constitutes the legal basis for the data processing referred to. Processing the aforementioned data is necessary to provide the website and hence serves a legitimate interest of our company.
These data are erased once they are no longer necessary to display the website. Collection of data for the purpose of providing the website and storage of the data in log files is absolutely necessary for operation of the website. Consequently, the user does not have the option of opposing it. The data may be stored for a longer period of time if the law so requires.
For the purpose of sending you the newsletter, your data are disclosed to our newsletter service provider. No other disclosure of data is made. To distribute our newsletter we follow the “double opt-in” procedure; i.e., we will send the newsletter to you only if you have previously confirmed your subscription by clicking on a link contained in a confirmation e-mail message sent to you for this purpose. We do this to ensure that only you, as the holder of the e-mail address that is submitted to us, are able to subscribe to the newsletter. You must confirm your subscription promptly upon receipt of the confirmation e-mail as, otherwise, your newsletter subscription will be automatically deleted from our database.
By entering my data and confirming my entries with the “Sign Up” button, I consent to the processing of my e-mail address for regular receipt of the newsletter. I may discontinue the newsletter service at any time by clicking the appropriate link at the bottom of the newsletter. I have read, and I accept, the current Data Protection Policy. I may at any time revoke my consent to collection of the personal data entered during the sign-up process by contacting datenschutz@isaria.ag or info@isaria.ag.
You may at any time revoke for the future your consent to the use of your personal data by sending an e-mail message to the e-mail address provided in the Data Protection Policy or to our data protection officer.
Your e-mail address will be stored for as long as you are subscribed to our newsletter. Your e-mail address will be deleted if you unsubscribe from the newsletter. The data may be stored for a longer period of time in a particular case if the law so requires.
Disclosing your e-mail address serves the purpose of proper attribution of your request so that we are able to reply to it. No data are disclosed to third parties when you use the contact form.
Data are processed as previously described for the purpose of contacting you, in accordance with Art. 6(1) sent. 1 lit. a GDPR, on the basis of the voluntarily issued declaration of consent that appears below.
By entering my data and confirming my entries with the “Contact Us” button, I consent to the processing of my e-mail address, my first and last names, and my telephone number so that my contact request can be answered. I have read, and I accept, the current Data Protection Policy. I may revoke this consent at any time by writing to datenschutz@isaria.ag or info@isaria.ag.
Once your request has been attended to and the issue in question is finally resolved, the personal data concerning you that have been processed through the contact form will be deleted. The data may be stored for a longer period of time in a particular case if the law so requires.
Our website provides various options for contacting us by e-mail.
All visitors to the website may send their requests or concerns to these e-mail addresses. Requests sent to us by e-mail are dealt with by the appropriate departments. Our collection of data in this case is limited to the address of the e-mail account you used to contact us along with any personal data you may have provided when contacting us.
The lawfulness of the data collection is based on Art. 6(1) sent. 1 lit. f GDPR as there is a coequal interest in establishing contact and communication between you and our company and a legitimate interest in processing the aforementioned data so that your request or concern can be dealt with.
How long the data referred to above are stored depends on the circumstances of your contacting us. Your data are regularly deleted if the purpose pursued by the communication no longer applies and storage of those data is no longer required (for example, after your request or concern has been dealt with).
- such disclosure is, in accordance with Art. 6(1) sent. 1 lit. f GDPR, required for protection of legitimate company interests, or to assert, exercise or defend legal claims, and there is no reason to assume that you have an overriding protectable interest in non-disclosure of your data.

Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 USA (“Google”), is used on this website. Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies”, which are text files that are stored on your computer and that make it possible to analyze your use of the website.
The information generated by these cookies concerning your use of our website is usually sent to a Google server in the USA and stored there. For our website we have activated IP address anonymization, whereby the IP addresses of Google users within the Member States of the European Union, or in other signatories to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, are truncated by Google in advance.
Google will use this information on our behalf to analyze your use of our website, to compile reports on the website activities, and to provide us, as a website operator, with other services associated with website and Internet use.
If your IP address is relayed by your browser as a result of the Google Analytics process, Google does not combine that information with other data.
You can prevent the cookies from being stored by means of the appropriate setting in your browser software. We must point out, however, that you may not be able to make use of the full functionality of our website if you do so.
In addition, you can prevent the data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website (including your IP address) from being collected and transferred to Google, and from being used by Google, by downloading and installing the browser plug-in that is available through the following link: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de.
Please note that, if you delete the cookies in that browser, the opt-out cookie will be deleted along with them, and you will have to click on the above link again if you wish to continue blocking the collection of your data. Information provided by Google on how Google collects, processes and uses your data can be found on Google’s website under “How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services” (http://www.google.de/policies/privacy/partners/), under “Data privacy and security” (https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=en) and in Google’s Terms of Service (https://www.google.com/analytics/terms/us.html). We assume no responsibility for the information provided by Google.
User information is processed when you access or watch videos embedded in our website that are provided from the YouTube platform.
To make our website more attractive and user-friendly, we provide links to selected social media platforms (among which are Facebook, Google+, Twitter, LinkedIn) in various places on that website through so-called “social bookmarks”. Social bookmarks are Internet bookmarks by which users of such a service can collect links and news reports. We do not, however, use any social plug-ins such as the “Like” button on Facebook. We protect your privacy by not incorporating social networks into our website and by providing links only. Data are transferred to a social network only when you click on one of the links. For information about how your personal data are handled when you use those websites, please read the data privacy policies of their providers.
Our website contains so-called “hyperlinks” to the websites of other providers. Activating these hyperlinks takes you directly from our website to the website of the other provider. You can tell when this happens by the change of URL, among other things. We can assume no responsibility for the confidentiality of your data on such third-party websites since we are unable to control whether those companies comply with data protection policy. For information on how your personal data are handled by those companies, please consult their websites directly.
Right of access, Art. 15 GDPR: If your personal data are being processed, then you have the right to information concerning the data pertaining to your person that have been stored.
Right to rectification, Art. 16 GDPR: Should personal information be processed that is inaccurate, you have the right to have that information corrected.
Right to erasure, right to limit processing, Art. 17 and 18 GDPR: Subject to certain legal conditions, you have the right to have your data erased and to limit the processing of your data.
Right to data portability, Art. 20 GDPR: If you have consented to data processing or there exists a contract for data processing and the data processing is performed with the aid of automated processes, then you have a right to data portability.
Right to object, Art. 21 GDPR: You have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data.
Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, Art. 77 GDPR: You have the right to lodge a complaint with a competent supervisory authority (in the Member State in which you have your customary place of residence).
Right to revocation, § 51 BDSG [Bundesdatenschutzgesetz, German Federal Data Protection Act] (new): If the processing of your personal data is based on Art. 6(1) sent. 1 lit a GDPR or Art. 9(2) lit. a GDPR, then you have the right to revoke your consent at any time. Your revocation will not affect the lawfulness of the processing that occurred on the basis of your consent before that consent was revoked.
You have the right to object at any time, for reasons relating to your particular situation, to processing of your personal data that is undertaken on the basis of Art. 6(1) sent. 1 lit. e GDPR (data processing in the public interest) or Art. 6(1) sent. 1 lit. f GDPR (data processing on the basis of a balancing of interests). If you raise an objection, we will no longer process your personal data unless we can show compelling protectable grounds for the processing that outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms or the processing serves the purpose of asserting, exercising or defending legal claims.
If we process your personal data for direct marketing purposes, then you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for the purpose of that sort of advertising to the extent that the processing is undertaken in connection with such direct marketing. If you object to data processing for direct marketing purposes, then we will no longer process your personal data for these purposes.
You can make your objection informally and free of charge, stating your name and your address. If you would like to assert a right to object on grounds relating to your particular situation, then please also briefly present the relevant reasons.
We are committed to protecting your privacy and treating your personal data confidentially. To prevent your personal data from being manipulated, lost or misused while in our safekeeping, we take extensive technical and organizational security precautions that are regularly reviewed and adapted to advances in technology. These include, among other things, use of recognized encryption methods (SSL or TLS). We must point out, however, that the structure of the Internet is such that the rules of data protection and the aforementioned security measures may not be observed by other persons or institutions lying outside our sphere of responsibility. In particular, third parties may be able to read data that are disclosed in unencrypted form, e.g. when they are contained in an unencrypted e-mail message. We have no technical control over this sort of activity. It is the user’s responsibility to protect user-provided data, by means of encryption or by other means, from misuse.
We reserve the right to update this Policy as needed to keep it aligned in content with the website. We will update this Policy to the same extent if there are changes in the law that make doing so necessary.
Should you have further questions on the topic of data protection that our Data Protection Policy has not been able to answer, please contact our data protection officer. We will get in touch with you as quickly as possible.
