Furthermore, we are committed, within the scope of applicable legal rights and obligations, to protecting your data through necessary organizational, legal, and technical security measures. Please read our privacy policy carefully and make sure you fully understand its content. If you do not agree with the information provided herein, please discontinue the use of this website and all related information and service features immediately, and hold the provider of this website – BEERENGUT Straden GmbH, Dirnbach 15, 8345 Straden, Austria – harmless and free from any claims. Conversely, by using our website and/or remaining on it, you expressly agree to our terms of use, which constitutes your consent to our Privacy Policy and any subsequent amendments thereof.

Scope of this Privacy Policy

Our Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use (digital assets & services), and disclose your data, as well as how we protect your privacy while you access our website (regardless of the device, domain, or platform used).

The foundation of our policy is our unwavering commitment to protect your data against manipulation, loss, damage, and unauthorized access. As BEERENGUT Straden GmbH, we process data—where possible—anonymously, or with your consent in a personalized form, to provide services and fulfill our business offerings in accordance with legal standards.

Server log files, provider requests, and data volumes are collected and transmitted in aggregated and anonymized form, serving the proper functioning of our online presence and general business operations.
Third-party features, including fonts, are used based on legal grounds and/or user consent. If data transfer occurs from or to non-EU countries (where no bilateral data agreements exist), this may include the transfer of data abroad. By using this website, you explicitly agree to hold BEERENGUT Straden GmbH and its contractual partners harmless for any potential resulting damages.

If third-party tools, features, or services from companies based outside the EU are used within this Privacy Policy, it should be assumed that data may be transferred to these third countries (particularly the USA, South Korea, Israel, and Canada). Data transfers to such countries occur on the basis of legal provisions, user consent, or standardized contractual clauses ensuring the legally required level of data protection.

Personal Data, Use, Disclosure, and Adaptation

Personal data (excluding anonymized log files, see section “General”) are collected when you provide them voluntarily through your actions and/or within the context of our business relationship—for example, via forms, customer inquiries, or other inputs. Such data are used to facilitate our business and may include contact information, which can be deleted upon written request unless prevented by legal retention requirements.

We store and use the data you provide to process contracts (e.g., provision, optimization, inquiries, customer service, quality control, hosting, IT-clouding, legal defense, logistics, payment, and financing processing) and related activities. After full completion of contractual obligations or deletion of your customer account, your data will be restricted in accordance with tax and commercial law retention periods and subsequently deleted, unless you have expressly consented to further use or a legally permissible continued use applies.

Users have the right to request, free of charge, information about any personal data stored about them by BEERENGUT Straden GmbH. Incorrect data will be corrected free of charge. Customers may also lodge complaints with supervisory authorities if they believe their data has been collected, processed, or stored unlawfully.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Cookies are used to store information from our (or third-party) web servers on your browser for later retrieval. Users are informed about such anonymized reach measurement cookies in this Privacy Policy. Essential cookies are necessary for the operation of our website and cannot be disabled, though they may be deleted through your browser settings.

By accessing our website, you authorize third parties to use tracking technologies (scripts, pixel tags, etc.), which may help optimize user experience, enhance security, and prevent fraud. Email addresses will not be shared with advertising companies without your explicit written consent.

Use of Google Services

Our website explicitly uses Google services (e.g., Google Fonts, Analytics, Marketing, Tags, Maps, Services, YouTube, Data Studio, AdWords, Recaptcha, etc.). This entails data transfers—typically with shortened and thus anonymized IP addresses—to servers in Europe and abroad, primarily the USA and Canada.

The legal basis for using Google services is your consent pursuant to the implementation of EU law within Austrian legislation (RIS, Federal Law Gazette No. 10001597, version of 30.01.2023
