03 Purposes of the data processing, legal bases and legitimate interests pursued by the controller or a third party, as well as categories of recipients
03.1 Calling up our websites/applications
03.1.1 Log files
Each time websites/applications are accessed, information is sent to the server of our website/application by the respective internet browser of your respective end device and temporarily stored in log files. The data records stored in this process contain the following data, which are stored until automatic deletion: Date and time of the request, name of the requested page, IP address of the requesting device, referrer URL (origin URL from which you came to our websites), the amount of data transferred, loading time, as well as product and version information of the respective browser used and the name of your access provider.
The legal basis for the processing of the IP address is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest arises from ensuring a smooth connection establishment, ensuring a comfortable use of our website/application, evaluation of system security and stability.
A direct conclusion on your identity is not possible on the basis of the information and will not be drawn by us. The data is stored and automatically deleted after the aforementioned purposes have been achieved. The standard periods for deletion are based on the criterion of necessity.
03.1.2 Cookies, tracking, social media plug-ins
On various pages, we use cookies or similar technologies (“together also referred to as “cookies”) to make visiting our services attractive and to enable the use of certain functions, as well as to statistically record the use of our services. Cookies are small text files that are automatically created by the browser and stored on the respective end device (laptop, tablet, smartphone or similar) when you visit and/or use our services. Cookies do not cause any damage to your end device, do not contain viruses, Trojans or other malware. Information is stored in the cookie that is related to the specific end device used. This does not mean, however, that we can gain direct knowledge of your identity and/or draw conclusions SCAYLE. Most of the cookies used are deleted at the end of the browser session (so-called session cookies). Other cookies remain on the end device and allow us to recognize the end device on the next visit (so-called permanent or session cookies). These cookies in particular serve to make our offer user-friendly, more effective and safer.
We use cookies to provide and optimize our services. We use a large number of cookies exclusively on the basis of your consent. An exception to this consent requirement only applies to cookies that are absolutely necessary for the provision of our services. We generally divide cookies and similar technologies into three categories according to their purpose:
Absolutely necessary cookies
These cookies are absolutely necessary for the function of our services. This applies, for example, to cookies that ensure that a user-related configuration of service functions (selected language, etc.) is maintained across sessions. In addition, we carry out so-called reach measurements on the basis of such cookies, with which we determine how our services are used in order to be able to provide them to our users in a needs-based manner. In addition, these cookies contribute to a safe and proper use of our services. According to the law, we do not require your consent for the use of such cookies.
You can find out which cookies fall into the category of cookies that are absolutely necessary in our preference center here.
Functional cookies

If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less relevant content/advertising tailored to your interests.
We use these cookies only on the basis of your consent.
You can find out which cookies fall into the marketing cookie category in our preference center here.

03.3.3 Hotjar
We use the services of Hotjar Ltd., Dragonara business centre, 5th floor, Dragonara road Paceville St. Julian`s, STJ3141 (“Hotjar”), in order to better understand your needs and to optimize this service and experience. Hotjar is a technology service that helps us better understand our users’ experience (e.g. how much time they spend on which pages, which links they choose to click, what users do and don’t like, etc.) and this enables us to build and maintain our service with user feedback.

03.3.4 Floodlight

03.4 Online marketing
We use various information on our pages for marketing purposes. Our goal is to show you only advertising that is oriented to your actual or perceived interests and you do not have to deal with ads that are not interesting for you. For this purpose, we use various forms of advertising (e.g. retargeting) and technologies from SCAYLE and third parties, some of which process data as processors for us, and some of which process data as data controllers. A processor is a natural or legal person, authority, institution or other body that processes personal data on behalf of the data controller. Processors do not use the data for their own purposes, but perform data processing exclusively for the controller. This enables us to target users with online advertising not only on our websites, but also on the websites of our partners, who have already expressed an interest in our services. We know from studies that the display of personalized, interest-related advertising is more interesting for Internet users than advertising that has no such personal reference.
If cookies are used in connection with online marketing (functional cookies or marketing cookies), we only use them with your consent. You can revoke your consent at any time in our preference center.
03.4.1 Google Marketing Platform
This website uses the online marketing tool Google Marketing Platform (“GMP”) of the operator Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland (“Google”). Google uses cookies to serve ads that are relevant to users, to improve campaign performance reports, or to prevent a user from seeing the same ads more than once. Google uses a cookie ID to record which ads are displayed in which browser and can thus prevent them from being displayed more than once.
In addition, Google can use cookie IDs to record so-called conversions that are related to ad requests. This is the case, for example, when a user sees a GMP ad and later, using the same browser, calls up the advertiser’s website and makes a purchase via this website. According to Google, GMP cookies do not contain any personal information.
Due to the marketing tools used, your browser automatically establishes a direct connection with the Google server. We have no influence on the scope and further use of the data collected by Google through the use of this tool and therefore inform according to our knowledge as follows: Through the integration of GMP, Google receives the information that you have called up the corresponding part of our website or clicked on an advertisement from us. If you are registered with a Google service, Google can assign the visit to your account. Even if you are not registered with Google or are not logged in, it is possible that Google will obtain and store your IP address. In the context of the use of GMP, personal data may also be transmitted to the servers of Google LLC. in the USA. The legal basis for the data processing is Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR.
Here you can find more information about Google’s privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy.
We only use the cookies required for this service (so-called marketing cookies) with your consent. You can revoke your consent at any time in our preference center.
03.4.2 Google Ads Remarketing
Our website uses the functions of Google Ads Remarketing, with which we advertise our websites in Google search results, as well as on third-party websites. The provider is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland (“Google”). For this purpose, Google sets a cookie in the browser of your terminal device, which automatically enables interest-based advertising by means of a pseudonymous cookie ID and on the basis of the pages you visit.
Additional data processing only takes place if you have consented to Google linking your Internet and app browsing history to your Google account and using information from your Google account to personalize ads that you view on the web. In this case, if you are logged in to Google while visiting our website, Google uses your data together with Google Analytics data to create and define target group lists for cross-device remarketing. In the context of the use of Google Ads Remarketing, there may also be a transmission of personal data to the servers of Google LLC. in the USA. The legal basis for data processing is Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR.
You can permanently disable the setting of cookies for ad preferences by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at the following link: https://www.google.com/settings/ads/onweb/.
Further information and the privacy policy regarding advertising and Google can be found here: https://www.google.com/policies/technologies/ads/.
We only use the cookies required for this service (so-called marketing cookies) with your consent. You can revoke your consent at any time in our preference center.
03.4.3 Google Conversion Tracking
Furthermore, we use the so-called conversion tracking as part of the use of the Google AdWords service. The provider is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland (“Google”). When you click on an ad placed by Google, a cookie for conversion tracking is stored on your computer/end device. These cookies lose their validity after 30 days, do not contain any personal data and are therefore not used for personal identification. The information collected using the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking.
The legal basis for this data processing is Article 6(1)(a) GDPR.
You can disable interest-based ads on Google as well as interest-based Google ads on the web (within the Google display network) in your browser by going to https://adssettings.google.de/ activating the “Off” button or deactivating them under https://optout.aboutads.info/ by doing so.For more information about your settings options in this regard and data protection at Google, please visit https://policies.google.com/privacy.
We only use the cookies required for this service (so-called marketing cookies) with your consent. You can revoke your consent at any time in our preference center.
03.4.4 Facebook Retargeting and Conversion
We use the pixel of Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin, Ireland („Meta“) (website custom audience pixel). Through this pixel, information about the use of this website (e.g. information about viewed articles) is collected by SCAYLE and Meta Ireland Limited in joint responsibility and transmitted to Meta. This information can be assigned to you with the help of further information that Meta has stored SCAYLE, e.g. due to your ownership of an account on the social network “Facebook”. On the basis of the information collected via the pixel, interest-related advertisements can be displayed to you in your Facebook account (retargeting). The information collected via the pixel can also be aggregated by Meta and the aggregated information can be used by Meta for its own web purposes as well as for advertising purposes of third parties. For example, Meta may infer certain interests from your browsing behavior on this website and may also use this information to promote third-party offers. Meta may also combine the information collected via the pixel with other information that Meta has collected SCAYLE via other websites and / or in connection with the use of the social network “Facebook”, so that a profile SCAYLE can be stored at Meta. This profile can be used for advertising purposes. Meta is solely responsible for the permanent storage and further processing of the tracking data collected via the website custom audience pixel used on this website.
We have also enabled automatic advanced matching as part of the Meta Pixel feature. This feature of the pixel allows us to send hashed emails, name, gender, city, state, zip code and date of birth or phone number as additional information to Meta, provided that you have provided us with this data and have given your consent for this. This activation enables us to tailor advertising campaigns on Facebook even more precisely to people who are interested in our services or products.
The legal basis for this data processing is Article 6(1)(a) GDPR.
You can find more information about the privacy policy of Meta at https://www.facebook.com/policy.php. Here you will also find the possibility of asserting your data subject rights (e.g. right to deletion) against Meta. We only use the cookies required for this service (so-called marketing cookies) with your consent. You can revoke your consent at any time in our preference center.
03.4.5 LinkedIn Insight Tag and Conversion Tracking
We use the conversion tracking tool “LinkedIn Insight Tag” of LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited, Wilton Plaza, Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Ireland (“LinkedIn”) on our website. For this purpose, the LinkedIn Insight Tag is integrated on our website, which enables the collection of the following data, among others:
- IP address
- Device and browser properties
- Page events (e.g. page views).
LinkedIn collects statistical data SCAYLEr visit to and use of our website and can provide us with corresponding aggregated statistics on this basis. In addition, the service is used to be able to show you interest-specific and relevant offers and recommendations outside of our website after you have informed yourself about certain services, information and offers on our website. The relevant information is stored in a cookie.
If you visit this website and are logged into your LinkedIn account at the same time, a connection to the LinkedIn server is established.
The legal basis for this data processing is Article 6(1)(a) GDPR.
You can find more information about privacy on LinkedIn in the privacy policy of LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy .
We only use the cookies required for this service (so-called marketing cookies) with your consent. You can revoke your consent at any time in our preference center.
03.5 Social Media Plug-ins
We may use social plug-ins of social networks in our services on the basis of Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR in order to make our company better known. The responsibility for data protection-compliant operation is to be ensured by their respective providers.
The purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data by the respective provider, as well as your rights in this regard and setting options for protecting your privacy, can be found in the respective provider’s privacy policy, which we link to below.
We use plug-ins of the social network LinkedIn from LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company, Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Ireland (“LinkedIn”) on some websites. You can find the link to LinkedIn’s privacy policy here: https://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy.
03.6 Fanpages
SCAYLE maintains social media profiles on the social networks Facebook and Instagram (“Fanpages”), services of Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin, Ireland („Meta“), on which we regularly publish and share content and offers. When you interact with our fanpages or other Facebook or Instagram websites, the providers of the social networks record your usage behavior with cookies and similar technologies. SCAYLE can view general statistics on the interests and demographic characteristics (such as age, gender, region) of users for its fan pages. If you use social networks, the type, scope and purposes of data processing in the social networks are primarily determined by the providers of the social networks. An exception applies to so-called page insights, for which we are jointly responsible with Meta and explain below.
Processing of your data by Meta.
Meta also processes your data when using Fanpages for its own purposes, which are not depicted in this privacy policy and over which we have no control. You can find more information at https://www.facebook.com/priva…
Usage analysis (Page Insights)
When you interact with our fan pages, Meta records your usage behavior with cookies and similar technologies. In this context, SCAYLE receives “page insights” that contain statistical, non-personalized (anonymized) information about visitors. It is not possible for us to assign this information to you personally. The selection and processing of Page Insights information is done exclusively by Meta. Page insights help us to understand how our fan pages are used, what interests visitors have, and which topics and content are particularly popular. We use this information to offer visitors to our fan pages relevant content and to better respond to the interests and usage habits of our visitors.
SCAYLE and Meta are jointly responsible for the processing of your data for the provision of Page Insights (Article 26 GDPR). There is an agreement between SCAYLE and Meta that specifies which company fulfills which data protection obligations in accordance with the GDPR with regard to the processing of Page Insights data.
The agreement with Meta is available here.
Meta has summarized the key contents of this agreement (including a list of Page Insights data) here: https://www.facebook.com/busin….
Insofar as you have consented to Meta in relation to the creation of page insights described above, the legal basis is Article 6 (1) a GDPR. Otherwise, the legal basis is Article 6 (1) f GDPR, whereby our legitimate interest is derived from the aforementioned purposes.
03.7 Contacting
You have the possibility to contact us in several ways. By e-mail, by phone, by chat or by mail. When you contact us, we use the personal data that you voluntarily provide in this context solely for the purpose of contacting you and processing your request.
We use the CRM system of Hubspot to process customer inquiries. The provider is Hubspot, a service of HubSpot, 2nd Floor 30 North Wall Quay, Dublin 1, Ireland (“Hubspot”). We use Hubspot to process your requests quickly and efficiently. We have entered into a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) with Hubspot. Hubspot processes your data when you send us an inquiry exclusively on our behalf and not for its own purposes.
For more information on data privacy, please see Hubspot’s privacy policy: https://legal.hubspot.com/privacy-policy.
The legal basis for this data processing is Art. 6(1)(a), Art. 6(1)(b), Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR and Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.
04 Processor
In the course of processing your data, we use so-called processors in some areas. A processor is a natural or legal person, authority, institution or other body that processes personal data on our behalf, whereby we remain responsible for the data processing. Processors do not use the data for their own purposes, but carry out data processing exclusively for the controller.
05 Storing and data deletion
SCAYLE will only store personal data for as long as it is necessary for the purposes stated in this Privacy Policy, in particular to fulfill our contractual and legal obligations. If necessary, we will also store your personal data for further purposes, if or as long as the further storage for certain purposes is permitted by law.
If complete deletion is not possible or not required for legal reasons, we block this information. For example, it is blocked if retention obligations under commercial or tax law apply, for example under the German Commercial Code (HGB) and the German Fiscal Code (AO). In this case, we are obliged to retain this information for up to ten years for tax audits and audits. Even if there is no legal obligation to retain data, we may refrain from immediate deletion in certain cases permitted by law. This applies, for example, if the information in question may still be required for further contract processing or legal prosecution or legal defense (e.g. in the case of complaints). The relevant criterion for the duration of the blocking is then the respective statutory limitation periods, after the expiry of which we then delete the information.
06 Recipients outside the EU
With the exception of the processing described above, we do not pass on your data to recipients based outside the European Union or the European Economic Area. The aforementioned processing includes a data transfer to the servers of the providers of tracking and targeting technologies commissioned by us. These servers are located in the USA. The data transfer takes place on the basis of so-called standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission.
