How do we process personal data?
We save and use your personal data only to process your orders and to get in touch with you. If you subscribe to our customer newsletter, we also use your email address to send it out. We will automatically send you status messages from the Client Portal if you have previously changed your settings on our customer administration interface in which you request these messages. We also save and process data that job applicants provide us as part of the job application process.
We save the following data from you:
Registration Data
When you register an account with us, we collect and process certain personal data from you as your registration data. For example, we need your name, address information, telephone number, payment information and your email address to process your order. If you pay using a credit card, we do not collect and store any payment information such as credit card numbers or verification codes. You disclose this information only to the respective payment service provider such as PayPal. We delete all your registration data either: within 24 months, as soon as you delete your user account with us, or once the statutory retention period expires. You can delete your user account with us by sending an email to contact@ksweb.net with your deletion request. The legal basis for this data processing is Art. 6 (1) lit. b GDPR.
Email Addresses
If you subscribe to our newsletter or request that you receive automated messages from ksweb.net, we also store your email address. We delete your email address once you delete your user account or if you unsubscribe from our newsletter. The legal basis for this data processing is Art. 6 (1) lit. a or Art. 6 (1) lit. b GDPR.
Server log files
Whenever you visit our websites, we automatically store certain data. This includes your IP address, type, and version of the browser you use, time, date, and website from which you come to our site. Your IP address is saved anonymized. You can then no longer be identified. The legal basis for this data process is Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR.
Who we forward your data to
External service providers may have access to your data while they assist us in providing our services. In some cases, third parties such as government authorities, external consultants, or our business partners may receive your data.
Domain Registration
If we register a domain for you, we provide the required data to the corresponding registration service provider.
Payment via Credit Card
When paying via credit card, the payment is processed by an external service provider. For credit card payments, your information is collected directly by PayPal or Stripe, depending on the payment processor you choose.
Debt collection agency
If you as a customer fail to pay your invoices on time, your necessary data are passed on to an external debt collection agency.
Third countries
Data is transferred to third countries in adherence to the legally regulated admissibility requirements. We will not transfer your data to a third country if it does serve the purpose of performing our contract with you; we have no consent from you; the transfer is not necessary to assert, exercise or defend legal claims; and there are no other exceptions. We will only transfer your data to a third country if there is an adequacy decision in accordance with Art. 45 GDPR or appropriate safeguards in accordance with Art. 46 GDPR. Once such adequacy decision (regarding an adequate level of protection) is the “Privacy Shield” for the USA. For transfers to a company certified under the Privacy Shield, the data privacy level is considered essentially as adequate within the meaning of Art. 45 GDPR. However, we usually do not rely on the Privacy Shield, but rather create appropriate privacy guarantees and complete the EU standard data privacy clauses issued by the European Commission with the receiving party. Together these actions establish appropriate safeguards in accordance with Art. 46 GDPR and provide an adequate level of protection.
