Privacy policy

We are a small engineering company, not an advertising business. We collect
what we need in order to answer you, invite you to our events and do the work
— and nothing else. This page says exactly what that is.

When you visit the site

Our server records the usual technical details of each request: the IP address,
browser, the page requested, the referring page, and the date and time. We use
this to run the site and to keep it secure, and we delete it after 30 days.
Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR — our legitimate interest in a site that works
and is not abused.

Typefaces are stored on and served from our own server. Nothing is fetched from
Google Fonts or any other outside service while you read this page.

When you write to us through the contact form

We store your name, email address, company and subject if you give them, your
message, and which language version of the site you used.

We use it to answer you. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR where your message
concerns a possible contract, otherwise Art. 6(1)(f) — our legitimate interest
in replying to people who write to us.

We keep it for 24 months after our last contact with you. If a conversation
continues, that clock starts again each time; a thread that is still alive is
not deleted because a calendar says so.

When you ask to be invited to our events

We store your first name, surname, company, email address and — only if you
choose to give it — your telephone number, together with the language you
asked in and the time you asked.

We use it to invite you to demonstrations and trade fairs, a few times a year.
These are written by a person, to you; we do not operate an automated mailing
list. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR — your consent, given by ticking the box
and confirming your email address.

We keep it until you ask us to stop. To stop, reply to any of our emails and
say so — a person reads it — or write to info@steelmar.at. You may also use
the unsubscribe link in the confirmation email. Withdrawing your consent does
not affect anything we sent before.

Where this information goes

Messages and invitation requests are transferred from this website into our own
customer database, which runs on company infrastructure in Austria and is
reachable only by our own staff over a private network. It is not a service of
any outside provider and the data is not accessible from the public internet.

We use it to keep track of who has written to us, what was discussed, and who
should be invited to what. Each request is read by a person before anything is
recorded; we do not create records automatically.

Analytics

We use Umami, which we host ourselves on the same
infrastructure as this site. It is served from our own domain, sets no
cookies, and stores no personal data: it counts page views and records the
referring site, the rough country, the browser and the device class, and
nothing that identifies you. No data leaves our server and no profile of you
is built, here or anywhere else. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

Cookies

This site sets one cookie, and only for people who sign in to the administration
area. There are no advertising cookies, no tracking cookies and no third-party
cookies.

Others who may see your data

• Microsoft 365 — our email runs on Microsoft 365, so a message you send us
  arrives in a mailbox there. See Microsoft's
  privacy statement.
• Our own infrastructure — this website, the customer database and the
  analytics all run on servers we operate ourselves in Austria.

We do not sell your data, and we do not pass it to anyone for advertising.

Your rights

You have the right to ask us for a copy of the data we hold about you, to have
it corrected or deleted, to restrict or object to how we use it, and to receive
it in a portable form. Where we rely on your consent, you may withdraw it at
any time.

Write to info@steelmar.at and we will answer.

You also have the right to complain to the Austrian Data Protection Authority
(Datenschutzbehörde, dsb.gv.at).

Changes

We update this page when what we do changes. The current version is always the
one here.
