The controller pursuant to the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) with regard to the processing of personal data in connection with the website is Competo Capital Invest GmbH, Karlstrasse 14 - Karolinen Karree, 80333 Munich (“Competo”, “we”, “us”).

We will inform you below about which data we collect in the context of usage of our website, for what purposes, the manner in which we use this data and what rights you have. Please note that the website may contain links to websites of other providers over which we have no influence and to which this data privacy information does not apply.

Our privacy statement should be clear and comprehensible to all. As a rule, this privacy statement adopts the official terms used in the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The official definition of terms is provided in GDPR Article 4.

2. PROCESSING OF YOUR DATA
2.1 VISITING THE WEBSITE
2.1.1. ACCESS TO AND STORAGE OF INFORMATION IN TERMINAL EQUIPMENT
When our website is used, information can be accessed (e.g. IP address) or stored (e.g. cookies) in your terminal devices, resulting in the processing of personal data pursuant to GDPR.

In cases in which such access to or storage of information is essential in order for us to technically provide our services without errors, this is done on the basis of TTDSG (German Telecommunications and Telemedia Data Protection Act) § 25 Clause 1 Sentence 1, Clause 2 Point 2.

In cases in which such a procedure serves other purposes (e.g. adequate design of our website), this is done on the basis of TTDSG § 25 Paragraph 1 only with your consent pursuant to GDPR Article 6 Clause 1(a). Consent can be withdrawn at any time in the future.

For more information on the processing of your personal data and the relevant legal basis in connection with this can be found in the following sections about concrete processing activities on our website.

2.1.2. This website is hosted by an external service provider (host). This website is hosted in the German IONOS data centres. Personal data entered on the website is stored on the host’s servers. This data can include IP addresses, contact requests, meta and communication data, web page accesses and other data generated via a website.

We have concluded with the provider a contract to process data on our behalf in accordance with the provisions of GDPR Article 28, in which we obligate the provider to protect our customers’ data and not to forward it to third parties.

2.1.3. SERVER LOGFILES
When you access our website, it is necessary for technical reasons that data is transmitted via your Internet browser to our web server. The following data is collected in anonymised form as soon as a connection is established for communication between your Internet browser and our web server:

- The referrer (previously visited website)
- The requested website or file
- The browser type and browser version
- The operating system used
- The device type used
- The time of access
- The IP address in anonymised form (is only used to determine the place of access)

We collect the listed data to ensure a smooth connection to the website and technically error-free provision of our services. It is essential for this data to be processed so that we can provide you with the website. The log files are used to evaluate system security and stability and for administrative purposes. The legal basis for the processing of data is our legitimate interest in the protection and functionality of our website pursuant to GDPR Article 6 Clause 1(f).

We temporarily store this data for reasons of technical security, in particular to prevent attacks on our web server. Immediately after the visit to our website, the data is anonymised by truncating the IP address at domain level, so that it is not possible to make a connection to the individual user.

The legal basis for processing the data is our legitimate interest in responding to your request pursuant to GDPR Article 6 Clause 1(f) and GDPR Article 6 Clause 1(b) if the purpose of your request is to conclude a contract. Your data shall be deleted following final processing of your request, provided no statutory retention obligations prevent this.
