3. General Information and Mandatory Disclosures

Data Protection
The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with legal data protection regulations and this privacy policy.

When you use this website, various personal data are collected. Personal data is data that can identify you personally. This privacy policy explains what data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this is done.

We point out that data transmission over the internet (e.g., communication via email) can have security vulnerabilities. A complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.

Note on the Responsible Party
The responsible party for data processing on this website is:

Finches GmbH
Hauptstr. 39

82237 Wörthsee
Phone: +49 156 78500083
Email: smile@finches.ai

The responsible party is the natural or legal person who alone or jointly with others decides on the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g., names, email addresses, etc.).

Storage Duration
Unless a specific storage period is mentioned in this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for data processing no longer applies. If you make a legitimate deletion request or revoke your consent to data processing, your data will be deleted unless we have other legally permissible reasons for storing your personal data (e.g., tax or commercial retention periods). In the latter case, the data will be deleted after those reasons no longer apply.

General Legal Bases for Data Processing on This Website
If you have consented to data processing, we process your personal data based on Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR, if special categories of data are processed under Art. 9(1) GDPR. In case of explicit consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, the processing is also based on Art. 49(1)(a) GDPR.

If you have consented to the storage of cookies or access to information on your device (e.g., via device fingerprinting), the processing is also based on § 25(1) TDDDG. Consent can be revoked at any time.

If your data is necessary for contract performance or for pre-contractual measures, we process your data based on Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR.
We also process your data if required to fulfill a legal obligation (Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR).
Furthermore, processing may be based on our legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).
Details on the specific legal basis used for each processing activity are provided below.

Recipients of Personal Data
As part of our business activities, we cooperate with various external parties. This may involve transferring personal data to these third parties.

We only transfer your personal data to third parties if this is necessary for fulfilling a contract, if we are legally obliged to do so (e.g., to tax authorities), if we have a legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR), or if another legal basis permits it.
If we use processors, we only pass on personal data based on a valid data processing agreement. In the case of joint processing, a joint processing agreement is concluded.

Revocation of Your Consent to Data Processing
Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You can revoke your consent at any time. The legality of processing carried out before revocation remains unaffected.

Right to Object to Data Collection in Special Cases and to Direct Marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)
IF THE PROCESSING IS BASED ON ART. 6(1)(E) OR (F) GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT, AT ANY TIME, FOR REASONS ARISING FROM YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION, TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS.
IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA UNLESS WE CAN DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING THAT OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS OR THE PROCESSING SERVES THE ASSERTION, EXERCISE OR DEFENSE OF LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION UNDER ART. 21(1) GDPR).
IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS PROCESSED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING FOR SUCH MARKETING; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING TO THE EXTENT THAT IT IS RELATED TO SUCH DIRECT MARKETING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL NO LONGER BE USED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES (OBJECTION UNDER ART. 21(2) GDPR).

Right to Lodge a Complaint with the Competent Supervisory Authority
In the event of violations of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, place of work, or place of the alleged infringement. This right exists without prejudice to other administrative or judicial remedies.

Right to Data Portability
You have the right to have data that we process automatically based on your consent or in fulfilment of a contract delivered to you or to a third party in a commonly used, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of data to another controller, this will only be done to the extent technically feasible.

Access, Correction, and Deletion
Within the scope of applicable legal provisions, you have the right to free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of data processing and, if applicable, the right to correct or delete this data. You can contact us at any time for this purpose or for any other questions regarding personal data.

Right to Restriction of Processing
You have the right to request the restriction of processing of your personal data. You may contact us at any time to exercise this right. The right to restriction applies in the following cases:

  • If you contest the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we usually need time to verify this. During the verification period, you have the right to request the restriction of processing.
  • If the processing is unlawful, you may request restriction instead of deletion.
  • If we no longer need your data, but you require it to exercise, defend or establish legal claims, you may request restriction instead of deletion.
  • If you have objected under Art. 21(1) GDPR, a balance must be struck between your and our interests. Until it is determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to restrict processing.

If processing has been restricted, such data may – apart from being stored – only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims, or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.

SSL or TLS Encryption
This website uses SSL or TLS encryption for security and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the address line of the browser changing from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock icon in your browser bar.

When SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Objection to Promotional Emails
We hereby object to the use of contact data published in accordance with legal notice requirements for sending unsolicited advertising and information materials. The site operators expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of the unsolicited sending of promotional information, such as spam emails.

Here is the final part of your privacy policy translated into English:

4. Data Collection on This Website

Contact Form
If you send us inquiries via the contact form, the information you provide in the form, including the contact details you enter there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing your inquiry and for follow-up questions. We do not share this data without your consent.

The processing of this data is based on Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR if your request is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in effectively processing the inquiries sent to us (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR) if it was requested. Consent can be revoked at any time.

The data you enter in the contact form will remain with us until you request its deletion, revoke your consent to store it, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g., after your inquiry has been processed). Mandatory legal provisions – especially retention periods – remain unaffected.

Inquiries by Email, Phone, or Fax
If you contact us by email, phone, or fax, your inquiry, including all resulting personal data (e.g., name, inquiry), will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of handling your request. We do not share this data without your consent.

The processing of this data is based on Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR if your inquiry is related to the fulfilment of a contract or is necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective handling of the inquiries sent to us (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), if it was requested. Consent can be revoked at any time.

The data sent to us via contact inquiries remains with us until you request deletion, revoke your consent to storage, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g., after your request has been processed). Mandatory legal provisions – especially statutory retention periods – remain unaffected.

5. Newsletter

Newsletter Data
If you would like to receive the newsletter offered on this website, we require an email address from you as well as information that allows us to verify that you are the owner of the email address provided and that you agree to receive the newsletter. No further data is collected or only on a voluntary basis. We use this data exclusively for sending the requested information and do not pass it on to third parties.

The processing of the data entered into the newsletter registration form is based solely on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You can revoke your consent to the storage of the data, the email address, and its use for sending the newsletter at any time—for example, via the "unsubscribe" link in the newsletter. The legality of data processing already carried out remains unaffected by the revocation.

The data you provide for the purpose of receiving the newsletter will be stored by us or the newsletter service provider until you unsubscribe from the newsletter and will be deleted from the newsletter distribution list after you unsubscribe or after the purpose ceases to apply. We reserve the right to delete or block email addresses from our newsletter list at our own discretion within the scope of our legitimate interest according to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

Data stored by us for other purposes remains unaffected.

After you unsubscribe from the newsletter list, your email address may be stored in a blacklist by us or the newsletter provider, if necessary, to prevent future mailings. The data from the blacklist will only be used for this purpose and will not be merged with other data. This serves both your interest and our interest in complying with legal requirements for newsletter dispatch (legitimate interest under Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). The storage in the blacklist is indefinite. You can object to the storage if your interests outweigh our legitimate interest.
