Privacy Policy


The Hartlwirt is responsible for the processing of your personal data on our website. You can find our contact data at Imprint.

We take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data as confidential and in line with statutory data protection regulations as well as this Data Protection Declaration.

Your data will not be forwarded to other recipients without your express consent.


Personal Data
We only process personal data that you provide us with (through visiting Our website or the details you make available in a contact form or newsletter-registration respectively), like: first name, surname, e-mail-address, telephone number, date of birth/age, sex, bank details (e.g. credit card number, account number), IP-address; not in every case all of the aforementioned data categories might be affected or have to be provided. Special categories of personal data within the meaning of Art 9 GDPR will not processed by us in the context of this website.


Processing of Personal Data
Your personal data is processed predominantly for the purposes of performing a contract or for pre-contractual purposes respectively (Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR) – without such data, it would be impossible for us to prepare, conclude or perform a contract with you. The processing is also carried out for the purposes of legitimate interests of Us or third parties respectively (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR), including in particular for the purposes of maintaining the operational safety of this website, claims management, direct marketing by analogue and digital means, providing advertisements to existing customers, statistical evaluation and the enhancement of our services and their quality.

We will process your personal data only pursuant to the permissible scope of the GDPR. Under normal circumstances, we will not transfer your personal data to third parties. Where this is necessary - e.g. for the performance of a contract - such transfer will be conducted in accordance with the provisions of the GDPR. In this case, we ask you to also consult the privacy policies of these third parties as they might become applicable. An exception to this general rule is the use for statistical and similar purposes. However, this will not involve any personal data but in such cases exclusively anonymized data will be transferred, which do not allow the identification of a natural person and which cannot be attributed to a specific natural person.


Data Security
The protection of your personal data is ensured through organizational and technical measures, including protection against unauthorized access and technical data protection precautions.

Please be aware, however, that notwithstanding these efforts, it cannot be completely excluded that data, which you make available through the internet can be perceived and potentially be used by others . We therefore assume no responsibility or liability for errors in the communication of data or unauthorized access by third parties (e.g. through hacker-attacks, spyware, malware etc).


Storage of Personal Data
Your personal data will be stored by us only for the period necessary to fulfill contractual and/or legal obligations (respective obligations may arise, e.g. from fiscal or from product liability provisions). Where the storing is not necessary any longer, such data will be deleted.


Right of Access, Right to Erasure, Right to Lodge a Complaint
Subject to the existence of statutory confidentiality obligations, you have the right to access your personal data and demand disclosure regarding the source of your personal data, the purpose for which it is being processed and - as the case may be - potential recipients. Furthermore, you have the right to have your personal data rectified, transmitted, their processing restricted or deleted, should the data be incorrect or should the basis for processing personal data cease to apply.

You also have the right to object to the processing of your personal data based on Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR („legitimate interests“).

We ask you to forward any such claim to the contact / contact person specified in the imprint of this website.

Please note that a possible objection does not affect the lawfulness of the processing of personal data on the basis of other legitimate grounds listed in Art. 6 (1) GDPR.

Should you be of the opinion that the processing of your personal data infringes applicable data protection laws or your claims pursuant to data protection laws or otherwise violated, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority (Art. 77 GDPR).


Use of Cookies
In order to design this website according to your needs and to collect certain information, we use different technologies, including so called cookies. Cookies help to simplify internet-usage and communication.

Cookies are small text files that are sent to your browser by our website and which will be saved on your Computer, where they are stored as anonymous identifier. The purpose of such cookies is to provide for a better control of the connection during your visit on our website and a more effective support when you return to our website. Without this temporary „caching“, entries already made would have to be repeated. A cookie only contains data which is released by the server and/or a user provides upon request (e.g. details about the domain, path, expiration date, cookie name and cookie value). Cookies therefore only contain technical information and no personal data. Furthermore, cookies are unable to spy out the hard disk drive of a user, cause damage or similar.

You have the possibility to generally decline the storing of cookies (or particular types of cookies) through your internet browser or to decide whether you want to allow the storing of cookies through separate indication. The non-acceptance of cookies may, however, result in websites not being displayed properly or their usability being constrained.


Analytic Tools
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses “cookies”, which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyse how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website (including your IP address) will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. However, depending on whether the IP-anonymization is set on the website - with the extension “_anonymizeIp() - IP-addresses are shortened within the European Union / European Economic Area and are therefore transferred and processed only in a shortened manner to prevent a direct personal reference. Only in exceptional circumstances will the shortening be carried out by Google itself and processed thereafter. Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity for website operators, and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google’s behalf. Google will not associate your IP address with any other data held by Google. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser; however, please note that if you do this, you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website. By using this website, you consent to Google processing your data in the manner and for the purposes set out above. You can prevent the installation of the Google cookies and thereby the obtaining and processing of the use data by downloading and installing this browser-plugin: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout

Google also allows you to decline the compilation of data through Google Analytics. Please refer to the respective internet-presence of Google.


Other Web-Tools
