think project! respects the rights to privacy of visitors to its website and understands the importance of protecting personal data. think project! collects, processes and uses personal data in accordance with legal requirements. Please read this privacy policy thoroughly.

Collecting and processing personal data

The provider collects personal data such as first and last name, postal address and email address only when this is provided by users on a voluntary basis and when such collection is legally permitted or covered by the users’ agreement – for example as part of a registration or a survey, or if the user requests information from the provider or enters into a contract with it.

When data is being requested for registration, some data fields are mandatory, for instance “country” or “email adress”. When the provider asks for the user’s email adress usually the user will receive some information, for instance an event invitation or a download link for information material he requested. The specification of the country enables the provider to assign a suitable contact person to the user in case of questions or establishing contact.

Usage and forwarding of personal data

The provider uses the personal data provided by the user exclusively for the purpose of technical administration of the website and towards fulfilling the user’s requests and requirements. As a rule, data is used towards dealing with users’ contracts, for billing purposes or for answering their enquiries.

Only once the user has submitted their agreement or when they have not – if allowed by legal provisions – made any opposition to this known, will the provider also use this data for product-related surveys and marketing purposes.

The personal data of users is not sold to third parties. The forwarding or other conveyance of a user’s personal data to third parties occurs only as part of contractualdata processing for accounting and marketing support. The commissioned company may only use personal data for the purpose of fulfilling this particular task, and not for any other purpose.

If the necessary requirements are met, the provider is authorised to collect, process and use personal data that is required to reveal or prevent unlawful utilisation as well as towards the enforcement of claims. If required on an individual basis, the provider is authorised to collect, process and use the inventory and connection data of users to identify, limit and eliminate defects and faults within communication systems.

In accordance with applicable provisions, the provider is authorised and obliged to disclose information to prosecution authorities and courts for the purposes of prosecution.

Information sent by provider

The provider will only send messages to the user via email on a regular basis, if the user has given his consent. These messages contain information about events, products and tips for the use of these products. The user has to register for such messages and receives a confirmation email, containing a link for final registration (double opt-in). This way it is ensured, that the user explicitly requested to receive this kind of information.

Anytime, the user can unsubscribe from receiving further messages sent by the provider and thus revoke his consent. Unsubscription is possible via a provided link in each email, by sending an email to support(at)projectcenter.com

Cookies

The provider uses so-called ‘cookies’ in its website in order to broaden the functional range of internet services and to make usage more convenient. This refers to the saving of text files on the user’s computer that allow for an analysis of the website’s usage. In this regard, cookies are used so that the website can clearly recognise a returning visitor as a specific user.

The cookies filed by the provider may only be used by the provider. The cookies themselves cannot access other data on the computer, nor can they read or alter other data.

The usage of cookies can be controlled by all internet browsers. Most browsers are set up to enable cookies to be accepted without asking the user. The user should note that they can configure their browser not to accept cookies, or to alert them before a cookie is stored.

Data collection with the aid of Google Analytics

This website utilises Google Analytics, a web analysis service from Google Inc. (‘Google’). Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies”, which are text files that are saved on the user‘s computer, thereby enabling analysis of the website’s usage.

As a rule, the information generated by the cookie about the usage of this website is transmitted to one of Google’s servers in the United States where it is then saved. This website runs software that makes an IP anonymous so that a user‘s IP address will be truncated by Google within member states of the European Union or in other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. The full IP address is only transmitted to one of Google’s servers in the United States in exceptional circumstances and once there it is shortened to make it anonymous.

Google uses this information on behalf of the provider in order to evaluate the usage of the website by the user, to compile reports regarding website activities, and to render further services to the website owner that are connected to usage of the website and the internet.

The IP addresses that are sent from your browser in the framework of Google Analytics are not combined with any other data from Google. You can prevent cookies from being saved by using the relevant setting in your browser software, however the provider emphasises to the user that in this case they may not be able to fully use all of the website’s functions.

The user can prevent the capture of data generated by cookies and obtained through their usage of the website (including their IP address), as well as prevent the processing of this data by Google. This is done by downloading and installing a browser plugin from the following link. The current link is:
