When you use this website, various types of personal data are collected. Personal data is data that can be used to personally identify you. 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.

Please note that data transmission over the Internet (e.g. when communicating by email) may be subject to security vulnerabilities. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possibl

Information on the Controller
The controller responsible for data processing on this website is:

Wallerseestraße 96
AT-5201 Seekirchen
Austria

Phone: +43 6212 30 0 30 0
Fax: +43 6212 30 0 30 19
Email: office@railsea.at

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

Withdrawal of Your Consent to Data Processing
Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You may withdraw consent that you have already given at any time. An informal notification by email is sufficient for this purpose. The lawfulness of data processing carried out prior to the withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal.

Right to Object to Data Collection in Specific Cases and to Direct Marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)
If data processing is carried out on the basis of Art. 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR, you have the right at any time to object to the processing of your personal data on grounds relating to your particular situation; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. The respective legal basis on which the processing is based can be found in this privacy policy. If you object, we will no longer process your personal data concerned unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override your interests, rights, and freedoms, or unless the processing serves the establishment, exercise, or defence of legal claims (objection pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR).

If your personal data is processed for the purpose of direct marketing, you have the right at any time to object to the processing of personal data concerning you for the purpose of such marketing; this also applies to profiling insofar as it is related to such direct marketing. If you object, your personal data will subsequently no longer be used for direct marketing purposes (objection pursuant to Art. 21(2) GDPR).

Right to Lodge a Complaint with the Competent Supervisory Authority
In the event of infringements 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, their place of work, or the place of the alleged infringement. The right to lodge a complaint is without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedies.

Right to Data Portability
You have the right to receive data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in performance of a contract, or to have such data transmitted to a third party, in a commonly used, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be carried out where technically feasible.

SSL or TLS Encryption
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or enquiries that you send to us as the website operator, this website uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the fact that the address bar in your browser changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the padlock symbol in your browser’s address bar.

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

Access, Blocking, Deletion and Rectification
Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to obtain information, free of charge, about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of the data processing. Where applicable, you also have the right to request the rectification, blocking, or deletion of this data. For this purpose, as well as for any further questions regarding personal data, you can contact us at any time using the address provided in the legal notice.

Right to Restriction of Processing
You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time using the address provided in the legal notice. The right to restriction of processing applies in the following cases:

• If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we generally require time to verify this. For the duration of the verification process, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
• If the processing of your personal data was or is unlawful, you may request the restriction of data processing instead of deletion.
• If we no longer require your personal data, but you need it for the establishment, exercise, or defence of legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of deletion.
• If you have lodged an objection pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR, a balance must be struck between your interests and ours. As long as it has not yet been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, such data may – apart from being stored – only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise, or defence of legal claims, 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.

Objection to Promotional Emails
We hereby object to the use of contact details published as part of the legal notice requirements for the purpose of sending unsolicited advertising and informational materials. The website operators expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of unsolicited promotional information being sent, for example through spam emails.

3. Data Collection on Our Website

Cookies
Some of our web pages use so-called cookies. Cookies do not cause any damage to your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies are used to make our website more user-friendly, effective, and secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and saved by your browser.

Most of the cookies we use are so-called “session cookies”. They are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Other cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recognise your browser when you next visit our website.

You can configure your browser to inform you when cookies are set and to allow cookies only in individual cases, to exclude the acceptance of cookies in certain cases or in general, and to automatically delete cookies when closing the browser. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.

Cookies that are required to carry out electronic communications or to provide certain functions requested by you (e.g. shopping cart functionality) are stored on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing cookies to ensure the technically error-free and optimised provision of its services. Where other cookies (e.g. cookies used to analyse your browsing behaviour) are stored, these are addressed separately in this privacy policy.

Server Log Files
The website provider automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These include:

• Browser type and browser version
• Operating system used
• Referrer URL
• Hostname of the accessing computer
• Time of the server request
• IP-Address

This data is not combined with data from other sources.

Contact Form
If you submit enquiries to us via the contact form, the information you provide in the enquiry form, including the contact details entered there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing your enquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We will not share this data without your consent.

The data entered into the contact form is therefore processed exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You may withdraw this consent at any time. An informal notification by email is sufficient for this purpose. The lawfulness of data processing carried out prior to the withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal.

The data you enter into the contact form will remain with us until you request its deletion, withdraw your consent to its storage, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. after your enquiry has been fully processed). Mandatory statutory provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.

Enquiries by Email, Telephone or Fax
If you contact us by email, telephone, or fax, your enquiry, including all personal data arising from it (name, enquiry), will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of handling your request. We will not share this data without your consent.

This data is processed on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR if your enquiry relates to the performance of a contract or is necessary in order to take steps prior to entering into a contract. In all other cases, processing is based on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR) and/or our legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR), as we have a legitimate interest in effectively processing enquiries addressed to us.

The data you send to us in connection with contact enquiries will remain with us until you request its deletion, withdraw your consent to its storage, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. after your request has been fully processed). Mandatory statutory provisions – in particular statutory retention periods – remain unaffected.

You can register on our website to use additional features offered on the site. We use the data entered during registration solely for the purpose of providing the respective service or offering for which you have registered. The mandatory information requested during registration must be provided in full. Otherwise, we will reject the registration.

In the event of important changes, such as changes to the scope of our services or technically necessary changes, we will use the email address provided during registration to inform you accordingly.

The data entered during registration is processed on the basis of your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You may withdraw your consent at any time. An informal notification by email is sufficient for this purpose. The lawfulness of data processing carried out prior to the withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal.

The data collected during registration will be stored by us for as long as you are registered on our website and will subsequently be deleted. Statutory retention periods remain unaffected.

Comment Function on This Website
For the comment function on this website, in addition to your comment, information about the time the comment was created, your email address and, if you do not post anonymously, the username you have chosen will also be stored.

Storage of the IP Address
Our comment function stores the IP addresses of users who post comments. Since we do not review comments on our website before they are published, we require this data in order to take action against the author in the event of legal violations such as insults or propaganda.

Subscribing to Comments
As a user of the website, you can subscribe to comments after registering. You will receive a confirmation email to verify that you are the owner of the email address provided. You can unsubscribe from this function at any time via a link in the information emails. In this case, the data entered when subscribing to comments will be deleted; however, if you have provided this data to us for other purposes and elsewhere (e.g. when subscribing to a newsletter), it will remain with us.

Storage Period for Comments
The comments and the associated data (e.g. IP address) are stored and remain on our website until the content to which the comment relates has been completely deleted or the comments must be deleted for legal reasons (e.g. offensive comments).

Legal Basis
Comments are stored on the basis of your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You may withdraw your consent at any time. An informal notification by email is sufficient for this purpose. The lawfulness of data processing carried out prior to the withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal.

Processing of Data (Customer and Contract Data)
We collect, process, and use personal data only to the extent necessary to establish, define the content of, or modify the contractual relationship (master data). This is done on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, which permits the processing of data for the performance of a contract or in order to take steps prior to entering into a contract. We collect, process, and use personal data relating to the use of our website (usage data) only to the extent necessary to enable the user to use the service or for billing purposes.

The customer data collected will be deleted upon completion of the order or termination of the business relationship. Statutory retention periods remain unaffected.

4. Plugins and Tools

YouTube with Enhanced Privacy
Our website uses plugins from the YouTube website. The operator of the website is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA.

We use YouTube in enhanced privacy mode. According to YouTube, this mode ensures that YouTube does not store information about visitors to this website before they watch the video. However, enhanced privacy mode does not necessarily prevent data from being shared with YouTube partners. For example, YouTube establishes a connection to the Google DoubleClick network regardless of whether you watch a video.

As soon as you start a YouTube video on our website, a connection to YouTube’s servers is established. The YouTube server is informed which of our pages you have visited. If you are logged into your YouTube account, you allow YouTube to associate your browsing behavior directly with your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.

Furthermore, after you start a video, YouTube may store various cookies on your device. With the help of these cookies, YouTube can obtain information about visitors to our website. This information is used, among other things, to compile video statistics, improve user-friendliness, and prevent fraud. The cookies remain on your device until you delete them.

After a YouTube video is started, additional data processing operations may be triggered over which we have no control.

YouTube is used in the interest of presenting our online services in an appealing manner. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Further information about data protection at YouTube can be found in its privacy policy at: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de

Google Web Fonts
This website uses so-called web fonts provided by Google to ensure the consistent display of fonts. Google Fonts are installed locally. No connection to Google servers is established.
