Privacy Policy

This website does not use any tracking, analytics tools, advertising cookies or social media plugins. This is a convenience translation. The German version is legally binding.

1. Controller

The controller responsible for data processing on this website within the meaning of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is:

MCAP8 GmbH
represented by its Managing Director Philipp M. Mayer
Forchenstr. 15, 89537 Giengen, Germany
Email: info@mcap8.com

2. Key points at a glance

  • This website does not set any cookies itself and does not use local browser storage.
  • We do not use any analytics, tracking or marketing services.
  • Fonts are loaded from our own server, not from third-party providers.
  • A connection to the appointment booking service Calendly is only established when you expressly trigger it with a click.

3. Hosting and server log files

This website is hosted by ALL-INKL.COM – Neue Medien Münnich, owner René Münnich, Hauptstraße 68, 02742 Friedersdorf, Germany. The servers are located in Germany. We have concluded a data processing agreement with the host pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR.

When you access our website, the web server automatically records information transmitted by your browser (server log files). This includes:

  • IP address of the requesting device,
  • date and time of access,
  • page or file accessed and amount of data transferred,
  • status code of the request,
  • referrer URL (previously visited page), if transmitted,
  • browser type, browser version and operating system.

This processing serves to deliver the website, ensure its stability and security, and detect misuse. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR; our legitimate interest lies in the secure and error-free operation of the website. The log files are stored only for as long as necessary for these purposes and are then deleted or anonymized. They are not combined with other data sources.

4. Encrypted transmission

For security reasons, this website uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by “https://” in your browser’s address bar.

5. Contact by email

If you contact us by email, we process the data you provide (for example your name, email address, company and the content of your message) in order to respond to your inquiry. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR insofar as your inquiry is aimed at concluding a contract, and otherwise Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in handling inquiries). We delete the data as soon as it is no longer needed to process your inquiry and no statutory retention obligations prevent deletion. We use IT service providers as processors to operate our email accounts.

6. Applications

If you apply to us by email, we process your application documents and the data they contain in order to decide whether to establish an employment relationship. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR in conjunction with Art. 88 GDPR. Your data is accessible only to the people involved in the selection process.

If no employment relationship results, we delete your documents no later than six months after the end of the selection process, unless you have consented to longer storage (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). If you register as a freelancer for our project pool, we store your profile on the basis of your consent until you withdraw it.

7. Appointment booking via Calendly

For online appointment booking, we use the Calendly service of Calendly, LLC or Calendly, Inc., 115 E Main St., Ste A1B, Buford, GA 30518, USA. We embed the booking calendar using a two-click solution: only when you click “Load calendar” is the calendar loaded and a connection to Calendly’s servers established. Without this click, no data is transferred to Calendly. Alternatively, you can open Calendly in a new tab via a link or simply contact us by email.

When the calendar is loaded, Calendly receives technical information such as your IP address, browser information and the page accessed. Calendly may use its own cookies and similar technologies and asks for your consent to these separately within the calendar. When you book an appointment, Calendly processes the data you enter (in particular your name, email address, the selected time slot and any voluntary information provided for preparation) and transmits it to us.

The legal basis for loading the calendar is your consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25 (1) TDDDG, which you give by clicking. Your booking data is processed to carry out pre-contractual measures at your request pursuant to Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. You can withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future, for example by reloading the page. The calendar will then no longer be displayed until you activate it again.

Calendly also processes data in the USA. Calendly is certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework; the transfer is based on the adequacy decision of the European Commission and, in addition, on standard contractual clauses. For more information, please see Calendly’s privacy notice.

8. Links to other websites

Our website contains links to third-party websites, for example LinkedIn, Google Maps or Stetig && Wandel. These are simple links, not embedded content. You only leave our website when you click such a link; the operator of the linked site is responsible for data processing there.

9. Your rights

Subject to the statutory provisions, you have the following rights at any time:

  • access to the data stored about you (Art. 15 GDPR),
  • rectification of inaccurate data (Art. 16 GDPR),
  • erasure (Art. 17 GDPR) and restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR),
  • data portability (Art. 20 GDPR),
  • withdrawal of consent given, with effect for the future (Art. 7(3) GDPR).

Right to object: Where we process data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, you may object to the processing at any time on grounds relating to your particular situation (Art. 21 GDPR).

To exercise your rights, simply send an email to info@mcap8.com.

10. Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority

You have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority (Art. 77 GDPR). The authority responsible for us is the Landesbeauftragte für den Datenschutz und die Informationsfreiheit Baden-Württemberg (State Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information Baden-Württemberg), Lautenschlagerstraße 20, 70173 Stuttgart.

11. No automated decision-making

No automated decision-making, including profiling, within the meaning of Art. 22 GDPR takes place.
