  • 2. What data do we collect and process

    a) Contract data
    We collect, process and store the data you provide when you order from us. In addition, we store and process data about the order and payment history.

    b) Data that you store on our servers
    We collect, process and store the information you store yourself when you use our services. This includes the production of backup copies in our backup systems.

    c) Log data
    When you visit our website or use our services, the device that you use to access the page automatically transmits log data (connection data) to our servers. Log data includes the IP address of the device that you use to access the website or service, the type of browser you are using, the website you have visited beforehand, your system configuration, and the date and time. We store IP addresses only to the extent necessary to provide our services. Otherwise, the IP addresses are deleted or made anonymous. We store your IP address when visiting our website for a maximum of 7 days to detect and ward off attacks.

    d) Customer correspondence
    We process the data that is collected when you contact us by email, fax or post, for example.

    e) Cookies, pixels, and other procedures
    We use cookies, pixels, and similar technologies at several points on our web offerings.
    Cookies are small bits of identification data that a server saves on a device that you use to access our website or our services. They contain information that can be read when accessing our services, thereby allowing for a more efficient and better utilization of our offerings.
    We use both permanent and session cookies. Session cookies are deleted when your web browser is closed. Permanent cookies remain on your device until they are no longer necessary to achieve their purpose and are deleted.

    • For example, we use first-party cookies to record information about your user behavior on our website.
    • Third-party cookies do not come from STRATO but from a third-party provider. We use these cookies, for example, for marketing activities.

    A tag is an umbrella term for snippets of code which are integrated into websites and used for various functions, such as simple counters (“tracking pixels”) or complex data transmissions (e.g “conversion tracking tags”).

    A script (also JavaScript) is able to execute more complex instructions, just like a programming language

    Analogt till ett programmeringsspråk kan ett skript (även JavaScript) utföra mer komplexa instruktioner.

    We use the term “cookies” as a commonly used umbrella term. It also includes tags, pixels, and scripts as alternative technical implementations.

    The procedures we utilize can be subdivided into various categories. Except for cookies which are technically necessary, you can decide which cookies you wish to permit.

    You can change your settings later at the bottom of the page under "Cookie settings“.

    Some of the cookies process data in third countries. You can find out what these are in the respective cookie categories. When processing your data on the basis of these cookies, it is possible that the European level of data protection cannot be guaranteed. If you consent to processing using these cookies, you also consent to transferring and processing your data in these third countries in accordance with Article 49 (1) lit. a GDPR.

    Necessary cookies

    The navigation of our website is made possible by technically necessary cookies. Basic functions such as displaying and selecting products, adding items to the shopping cart, or logging in are not possible without them.

    Facebook Inc.In order to enable user group-driven marketing in social networks, a tracking mechanism in the form of a pixel is embedded in this website. Upon visiting our website, the pixel is loaded by your web browser. During this procedure, information is sent to Facebook. Based on this information, the browser session is linked to a person. This correlation takes place in a pseudonymized fashion solely according to a Facebook ID, such that we are unable to link it to a person. The data is used by Facebook in order to display targeted ads based on behavior profiling and geographical location. For this purpose, we use the Facebook pixel only in the standard model without additional data matching. You can configure ad-related settings on Facebook in your user profile.

    f) Cookie setting via YouTube video embedding
    We include videos from youtube.com on our website, especially on our Help & Contact page and our blog. We have embedded the videos in the so-called "extended privacy mode". This means that cookies are set by YouTube on the device you are using only after the play function is used, which can also serve to analyse usage behaviour for market research and marketing purposes.
    If you have not agreed to cookies in the Partnership category, you must agree to the transfer of data to YouTube before playing a video. You can change your settings at any time at the bottom of the page under "cookie settings".
    You can find out more about cookie usage by YouTube in Google's cookie policy at https://policies.google.com/technologies/types?hl=en-GB

    g) Newsletter tracking by Episerver:
    The operating company of the application is Episerver GmbH.
    The newsletters are provided by Episerver with a pixel-sized file that is retrieved from the server when the newsletter is opened. As part of this retrieval, information about the browser and your system, your IP address and whether and when the newsletters are opened are collected.
    Links in the newsletters are individual, so that it can be tracked whether you have clicked on them.
    In addition, a post-click tracking cookie is set. This makes it possible to track user actions even after leaving the newsletter. Among other things, purchases, registrations and downloads on the STRATO website are recorded.
    The analyses carried out by Episerver on the basis of the data collected are made available to us in summarized form in anonymized form, so that it is no longer possible to draw conclusions about the actions of individual recipients.

    We use these statistical analyses to improve the accessibility of our offers and to ensure that you only receive content from us that corresponds to your interests. Our aim is also to optimize websites and to assess the success of advertising campaigns.

    While the post-click tracking cookie is only set with your consent, the other tracking measures are carried out within the scope of our legitimate interests. You have the option to object to the collection and processing of data by Episerver in the customer login under the tab "Change customer data"-> "Contact ways".

    h) Integration of Google services with STRATO Webmail
    STRATO Webmail`s use and transfer to any other app of information received from Google APIs will adhere to Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

  • 3. Legal basis of the processing

    We process and use your data to execute the contract and provide our services, to improve our services and our websites and to adapt them to your needs and to provide updates and upgrades.

    Article 6 I lit. a of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) provides us with a legal basis for processing operations, in which we obtain consent for a particular processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is required to fulfil a contract, the processing is based on Article 6 I lit. b GDPR. The same applies to processing operations that are necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures, for example in cases of enquiries regarding our products or services. If we are subject to a legal obligation which requires the processing of personal data, such as the fulfilment of tax obligations, the processing is based on Article 6 I lit. c GDPR. Finally, processing operations could be based on Article 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 for the protection of our legitimate interests or those of a third party, unless the interests, fundamental rights and fundamental freedoms of the person concerned (data subject) prevail. Such processing operations are particularly permitted because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator. A legitimate interest is usually to be assumed if the data subject is a customer of the controller.

    If the processing of personal data is based on Article 6 I lit. f GDPR, our legitimate interest is conducting our business. This also includes data analysis to improve our products and services. As well as performance of legal obligations, insofar as processing does not fall under Article 6 (1) lit. c GDPR.

    We process applicant data in accordance with Article 88 GDPR in conjunction with § 26 of the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG, new version).

  • 4. Categories of recipients

    We only release data to authorities and third parties in accordance with statutory provisions or a legal title.

To ensure legality, we have concluded EU standard data protection clauses in accordance with Art. 46 Para. 2 lit. c GDPR.

  • 6. Duration of storage

    We only process and store personal data for the period required to achieve the purpose of storage or where required by law. As a rule, the processing purpose is achieved upon termination of your contract.

You also have the right to transfer this data to another controller without hindrance by us if the processing is based on the consent pursuant to Article 6 (1) lit. a GDPR or Article 9 (2) lit. a GDPR or is based on a contract pursuant to Article 6 (1) lit. b GDPR and the processing is carried out by automated means, unless the processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.
    Furthermore, in exercising your right to data transferability under Article 20 (1) GDPR, you have the right to arrange that your personal data is transmitted directly from one controller to another, where this is technically feasible and as long as this does not affect the rights and freedoms of others.

    g) Right to withdraw consent under data protection law
    You have the right to withdraw the consent to the processing of personal data at any time.

    h) Right of appeal to the supervisory authority

  • 8. Statutory or contractual requirement, for the provision of personal data, necessity for the conclusion of the contract, obligation to provide the personal data, possible consequences of failure to provide data

    The provision of personal data may in part be required by law (e.g. tax regulations) or result from contractual provisions (e.g. information about the contracting party). Sometimes it may be necessary that you provide us with personal data, which must subsequently be processed by us, in order to conclude a contract. For example, you are required to provide us with personal information when we conclude a contract with you. Failure to provide the personal data would mean that the contract could not be concluded.

  • 9. Existence of automatic decision-making / profiling

    We do not use automatic decision-making or profiling.
