Hosting
Our website is provided via Firebase Hosting, a service of Google Cloud EMEA Limited, Velasco, Clanwilliam Place, Dublin 2, Ireland. When you visit the website, Google processes technically necessary data that your browser transmits, in particular your IP address, the date and time of access, the page requested, and your browser type and operating system. Google uses the IP addresses to detect abuse and to provide us with aggregated usage statistics, and according to its own information stores them for a few months. We do not store any website log data ourselves. The processing is based on Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in providing the website securely and reliably.
We have concluded a data processing agreement with Google pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR. The website is delivered via a worldwide server network, so data may also be transferred to third countries such as the USA. Transfers to the USA are based on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, under which Google LLC is certified, and on the EU Standard Contractual Clauses.
Contact form and email
When you send us an enquiry via the contact form, your browser transmits your topic (for example general enquiry, pilot partnership or campus licence), your first name, last name, email address, optionally your phone number, and your message to our server. We store the enquiry and forward it by email to our mailbox in order to answer it. If you email us directly, we process the details in your email. The legal basis is Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR if your enquiry relates to a contract or pre-contractual measures, otherwise Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in handling your enquiry. We delete your data once your enquiry has been fully dealt with and no statutory retention obligations apply.
Waitlist
When you sign up for our waitlist, your browser transmits your first name, last name, email address, your role (“I am a”), your university or institution or hospital and, if you are a student, your current semester to our server, which stores them. We use this data to inform you about the launch of Rescuemation and to tailor our offer to our audience. The legal basis is your consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR. You can withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future, for example by email to info@rescuemation.com. We store your data until you unsubscribe, withdraw your consent or the waitlist is no longer needed.
Server, database and email
Our server, which receives the forms, runs on Google Cloud Run in a data centre in Frankfurt am Main. It logs every request including your IP address in order to secure operations and fix errors; these logs are deleted after 30 days. It does not log the content of the forms. The legal basis for the logs is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The provider is Google Cloud EMEA Limited, Velasco, Clanwilliam Place, Dublin 2, Ireland.
We store the form data in a database at Supabase, Inc., in a data centre in Frankfurt am Main. We process our emails with Google Workspace, also provided by Google Cloud EMEA Limited.
We have concluded a data processing agreement pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR with both Google and Supabase. A transfer to third countries such as the USA cannot be ruled out. It is based on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, under which Google LLC is certified, and on the EU Standard Contractual Clauses.
Social media presence
We run company profiles on Instagram and LinkedIn to inform people about Rescuemation and to get in touch with those interested. When you visit these profiles, the platform operators process your data, among other things for statistical and advertising purposes. This may also involve a transfer to third countries such as the USA. We have only limited influence on this processing.
We are jointly responsible with the respective operator for compiling statistics on the use of our profiles (Insights) (Art. 26 GDPR). We only receive aggregated, anonymised reports. The legal basis is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in up-to-date public relations and communication.
Instagram is operated by Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland. Further information can be found in Instagram’s privacy policy.
LinkedIn is operated by LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company, Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Ireland. Further information can be found in LinkedIn’s privacy policy.
You can assert your rights both against us and directly against the operators. Since only the operators have full access to the user data, it is usually most effective to contact them directly.
Our website links to these profiles. These are simple links. Data is only transferred to the platform when you click a link.
Disclosure of data
Your personal data is not passed on to third parties, except to the processors named above, who act on our behalf and on our instructions, or where there is a legal obligation to do so.
Your rights
You have the right at any time to:
- access the data stored about you (Art. 15 GDPR)
- rectification of inaccurate data (Art. 16 GDPR)
- erasure of your data (Art. 17 GDPR)
- restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR)
- data portability (Art. 20 GDPR)
- object to the processing (Art. 21 GDPR)
- withdraw consent given, with effect for the future (Art. 7 (3) GDPR)
To do so, simply email info@rescuemation.com.
Right to lodge a complaint
You have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority if you believe that the processing of your personal data infringes the GDPR. The authority responsible for us is the Data Protection Authority of Lower Saxony (LfD Niedersachsen), Prinzenstraße 5, 30159 Hanover, Germany.
